The Texas-Oklahoma border has been redrawn the Texas Land Commissioner announced. The Red River Boundary Commission has redrawn the boundary in order to ensure safe water.
The Texas Land Commissioner announced the Red River Boundary Commission has redrawn the Texas-Oklahoma boundary in order to ensure safe water for more than 2 million Texans. The redraw will secure and make available approximately 30% of the drinking water supply for the surrounding area. 'As Texas Land Commissioner, it is my honor to work on behalf of all Texans and bring solutions to the table to benefit our great state.
It was during this pause in operation that a question arose regarding where the pump station was located. If the pump was in Oklahoma, operating it could violate federal law prohibiting the interstate transport of zebra mussels. It was determined that the pump station that provides drinking water to certain parts of north Texas was inadvertently built straddling the state lines of Texas and Oklahoma,' it said. 'On October 30, 2024, the Red River Boundary Commission, composed of Texas and Oklahoma commissions, executed the Amended and Restated Texoma Area Boundary Agreement to correct the boundary issue and ensure the pump station is located wholly in Texas,' according to the statement.
