The Mary Rhodes Pipeline now operates at increased capacity, delivering 75 million gallons daily from Lake Texana to Corpus Christi. This represents a 25% increase in the city’s total water supply, providing essential flexibility during drought conditions.

The pipeline serves as a vital lifeline connecting Corpus Christi to water resources from Lake Texana and the Colorado River. This enhancement complements the city’s existing surface water system, ensuring reliable water delivery across the seven-county Coastal Bend region.
