Description

The City of Sherman (City) and Greater Texoma Municipal Utility District (Texoma), petitioners, filed this action under the Declaratory Judgment Act, article 2514-1, against the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUC) and Luella Water Supply Corporation (Luella), respondents. The purpose of the suit was to determine if the PUC has jurisdiction to prohibit, condition, control or otherwise regulate the groundwater development activities of petitioners. City has acquired land and proposes to drill four water wells on land outside the Citys municipal limits and within the service area of Luella. The Texas Water Commission approved Citys project and authorized Texoma to issue 7.5 million dollars in revenue bonds for the construction of the water supply facilities. City does not intend to sell water to customers within Luellas certificated area, but the groundwater will be produced from the same underground "sands" or strata as those from which Luella secures the water for its customers.
