11th Annual Water Resources Conference

The Red River Valley Association heard several updates yesterday on making commercial navigation on the Red a reality from Shreveport/Bossier north into Arkansas. Texarkana hosted the 11th Annual Water Resources Conference yesterday. It's going to take a concerted effort between local, state, and federal governments along with cooperation and help from local landowners and private organizations. I spoke briefly about the Red River Waterways Trust Fund and other efforts Arkansas can make to hold up our end. Aaron Brand covered the conference yesterday for the Texarkana Gazette.
