Fannin County will undergo some great changes in the coming years as the population grows as projected. Fannin County’s current population of 34,000 is expected to grow to 83,000 within 50 years. Along with new roads, homes and schools, there is a need for more water to sustain this growth. The North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD) in partnership with the City of Bonham is building a water treatment plant to serve Bonham.
Within 50 years, the region served by NTMWD, which includes Fannin County, will be home to about 3.5 million people, more than doubling the current population. NTMWD supplied 268 million gallons of water daily in 2006 to the region served. In anticipation of the impending growth, the NTMWD is pursuing several strategies to help water supplies keep pace with the region’s population. Water conservation efforts and expansion of the water reuse programs are already underway, but additional sources are still needed to meet rising demand. The Lower Bois d’Arc Creek Reservoir (Reservoir) is one of these new sources.
