PRAIRIELANDS GROUNDWATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT
To be held
9:00 AM, Monday, July 21, 2025

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN to all interested persons within the Prairielands Groundwater Conservation District, consisting of Ellis, Hill, Johnson, and Somervell counties: That the Board of Directors of the Prairielands Groundwater Conservation District (PGCD) will hold hearing(s) on applications for Exceptions to Minimum Spacing Requirements by the below listed parties on Monday, July 21, 2025, beginning at 9:00 AM at the District board room located at 208 Kimberly Drive, Cleburne, Texas 76031.
_________________________________________________________________________________

Applicant/Owner: Undine Texas, LLC (Crowley II Acre Subdivision), 17681 Telge Road, Cypress, TX 77429
Type of Application: Exception to Well Spacing Requirements
Location of well: 32.537158, -97.448991 LOT 4 BLK A (CENTRAL PT) CROWLEY II ACRES Acres:1.0100 Johnson County
Description of Request: Undine Texas, LLC (Crowley II Acre Subdivision) is seeking an exception to the District’s Well Spacing requirements under District Rule 4.7 in order to operate a new water well to provide potable water to residents of the Crowley II Acre Subdivision located in Johnson County at 11155 CR 1015, Crowley, TX 76036. Applicant received approval for OP-21-015 in October 2021 for the registration, drilling, and construction of a “New Well” (ID No. PGCD-002620) to be screened in the Paluxy formation of the aquifer with a maximum designed capacity of 56 GPM. This approval was granted with the condition that the “Existing Well” (ID No. PGCD-001080) would be plugged within 30 days of completing the new well, as the two wells were only 24 feet apart and did not meet spacing requirements. Applicant is requesting an exception from the well-spacing requirements between PGCD-002620, PGCD-001080, and PGCD-001078 (the “Rock Creek Well”). Following completion of the New Well, the intended maximum capacity was not achieved. Therefore, the applicant is requesting an exception to spacing in order to continue operating the Existing Well to meet the water system's capacity needs.
_________________________________________________________________________________

For hearings on applications for wells that seek an exception to the District’s minimum spacing requirements, any person interested in supporting or challenging the exception application may submit comments or other information in writing to the District prior to a board decision on the application or appear before the Board at the public hearing on the date specified in this notice. Comments may be mailed to the District at 208 Kimberly Drive, Cleburne, Texas, 76031, or submitted by email to: kjones@prairielandsgcd.org.

Any additional public information concerning this hearing will be posted on the District’s website “Meetings” page prior to or during the hearing at: https://www.prairielandsgcd.org/meetings/

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
PRAIRIELANDS GROUNDWATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT
To be held
9:00 AM, Monday, July 21, 2025
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN to all interested persons within the Prairielands Groundwater Conservation District, consisting of Ellis, Hill, Johnson, and Somervell counties: That the Board of Directors of the Prairielands Groundwater Conservation District (PGCD) will hold hearing(s) on applications for Exceptions to Minimum Spacing Requirements by the below listed parties on Monday, July 21, 2025, beginning at 9:00 AM at the District board room located at 208 Kimberly Drive, Cleburne, Texas 76031.
_________________________________________________________________________________
Applicant/Owner: Undine Texas, LLC (Crowley II Acre Subdivision), 17681 Telge Road, Cypress, TX 77429
Type of Application: Exception to Well Spacing Requirements
Location of well: 32.537158, -97.448991 LOT 4 BLK A (CENTRAL PT) CROWLEY II ACRES Acres:1.0100 Johnson County
Description of Request: Undine Texas, LLC (Crowley II Acre Subdivision) is seeking an exception to the District’s Well Spacing requirements under District Rule 4.7 in order to operate a new water well to provide potable water to residents of the Crowley II Acre Subdivision located in Johnson County at 11155 CR 1015, Crowley, TX 76036. Applicant received approval for OP-21-015 in October 2021 for the registration, drilling, and construction of a “New Well” (ID No. PGCD-002620) to be screened in the Paluxy formation of the aquifer. This approval was granted with the condition that the “Existing Well” (ID No. PGCD-001080) would be plugged within 30 days of completing the new well, as the two wells were only 24 feet apart and did not meet spacing requirements. Applicant is requesting an exception from the well-spacing requirements between PGCD-002620, PGCD-001080, PGCD-001078 (the “Rock Creek Well”), located at 3707 Rock Creek Dr, Crowley TX, and PGCD-003675 located at 3911 Chisholm Trail Rd, Crowley, TX. Following completion of the New Well, the intended maximum capacity was not achieved. Therefore, the applicant is requesting an exception to spacing in order to continue operating the Existing Well to meet the water system's capacity needs.
_________________________________________________________________________________
For hearings on applications for wells that seek an exception to the District’s minimum spacing requirements, any person interested in supporting or challenging the exception application may submit comments or other information in writing to the District prior to a board decision on the application or appear before the Board at the public hearing on the date specified in this notice. Comments may be mailed to the District at 208 Kimberly Drive, Cleburne, Texas, 76031, or submitted by email to: kjones@prairielandsgcd.org.
July 21, 2025 Page 2 Hearing Notice
Any additional public information concerning this hearing will be posted on the District’s website “Meetings” page prior to or during the hearing at: https://www.prairielandsgcd.org/meetings/
Certification
I, the undersigned authority, do hereby certify that on or before July 11, 2025, at or before 9:00 AM, I posted and filed the above notice of meeting(s) and hearing(s) with the Texas Secretary of State, the Ellis, Hill, Johnson, and Somervell county clerk’s offices, and also posted a copy in the front window of the Prairielands GCD office in a place convenient and readily accessible to the general public at all times and that it will remain so posted continuously for at least 10 days preceding the scheduled time of said meeting in accordance with the Texas Government Code, Chapter 551.

The Section 185 fee program rules under consideration for withdrawal are no longer necessary or applicable since EPA has determined that the Houston-Galveston-Brazoria area met the federal Clean Air Act criteria for redesignation under the revoked one-hour ozone NAAQS and terminated all anti-backsliding obligations related to that standard, including the Section 185 fee (February 14, 2020 85 FR 8411).
