Texas TWDB water-survey checklist

A one-page fillable checklist for owners and capital partners reading the September 14 TWDB survey-enforcement letter against an October 14 Governor update clock. Seven Decision / Y/N / Owner rows. Editorial checklist only.

The September 14, 2026 Governor letter to TWDB turns failure to complete and return the water-use survey into criminal-offense and Chapter 11 ineligibility risk for survey recipients, with an October 14 enforcement-progress update owed to the Governor.

Use this fillable checklist before the next LOI amendment, PSA hard date, or construction draw that assumes TCEQ Chapter 11 water authorizations stay available. It is an editorial working sheet, not a product diagnostic and not legal advice.

What is inside

Seven decision rows

Survey received, March 1 return, County/DA referral risk, Chapter 11 spend assumption, TCEQ notice monitoring, TWDB/ERCOT audit response readiness, and October 14 reading.

Fillable Y/N and Owner

AcroForm Yes/No radios and Owner text fields. Save a project copy after filling.

Scope

Locked to the Sep 14 letter and same-day press release reading of TEX. WATER CODE § 16.012(m). No invented survey stats. October 14 is an enforcement-progress update, not a permit decision.

Who should use it

Owner development, finance, legal and capital-partner teams underwriting a Texas campus that still needs Chapter 11 water authorizations.

This checklist coordinates diligence questions. It does not establish survey recipient status, return proof, TCEQ posture, or legal rights.
