SAN BENITO, Texas - Craig Harmon, general manager of Cameron County Irrigation District No. 2 and Cameron County Drainage District No. 3, recently had a private meeting with U.S. Rep. Vicente Gonzalez.
Also at the meeting were officials with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation.
In his power point presentation, Harmon did not hold back. He said he wanted to give the bottom line up front. So, the first slide said:
1. There is a sustained water crisis in the RGV.
2. The water crisis is destroying the RGV agricultural community and industry.
3. The water crisis is threatening municipal water security.
4. Funding is desperately needed to mitigate the impact of 2 and 3 above.
To find out exactly what he said in that private meeting, the Rio Grande Guardian asked Harmon for an audio in-depth interview. He obliged.
