Texas released for public comment the draft 2012 State Water Plan, which will be hotly debated given the water crisis gripping the state. It calls for $53.1b in infrastructure and water management projects that, all told, would result in 9m acre per year of additional water by 2060 This is not an insignificant amount of water. It is more water than the combined annual withdrawal from the Colorado River by California, Arizona, Nevada, and New Mexico.
