Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority

Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority

The Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority or GBRA was formed in 1933 by the Texas legislature. Its main concerns are water suppy and water conservation in the Guadalupe River Basin, which includes the Blanco, Comal, and San Marcos Rivers. The authority extends over ten counties. The general offices of the authority are located at 933 East Court Street in Seguin. [" [http://www.gbra.org/About/Contact.aspx Contact Us] ." "Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority".

* Lake Dunlap
* Lake Gonzales
* Lake McQueeney
* Meadow Lake
* Lake Placid

Other reservoirs managed by the GBRA include:
