The Edwards Aquifer is more than a water source — it’s a living story that connects our past, present and future. It’s the reason settlers came to this area, and it’s the lifeblood of our growth. Our aquifer is a resource we can study and learn from. It’s an incredible wonder, and it’s why we’re here.
Dive into deeper discovery through education.
There’s so much to explore at the EAA Education Outreach Center. We’ve got a hub of interactive exhibits and hands-on activities designed to inspire a deeper connection to the water that sustains our region.

🌎💧 Groundwater is one of our most valuable natural resources, and protecting it starts with all of us.
Simple actions like properly disposing of chemicals, conserving water, and helping protect recharge areas can make a lasting difference in keeping our groundwater clean for ...generations to come.
Protect Your Groundwater Day is an annual reminder of just how important this resource is. Groundwater makes up approximately 95% of the world’s accessible freshwater, with rivers and lakes accounting for the remaining 5%.
Every action matters. Every drop counts. 💙

Last week, we hosted a delegation of 14 leaders from across Europe participating in the U.S. Department of State’s International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP). The visit was coordinated through the San Antonio Council for International Visitors as part of the group’s U.S. Energy Policy: ...Security, Independence and Innovation program.
EAA General Manager Roland Ruiz and staff welcomed the delegation for a discussion highlighting the Edwards Aquifer, EAA’s work, and the region’s approach to managing and protecting the aquifer. EAA Board Member Byron Miller, Bexar County – District 2, Treasurer, helped facilitate the opportunity for EAA to host the delegation.
