      <image:title>Projects - “Being part of the IIC has allowed us to advance real-time performance evaluation of our irrigation networks and in closing our annual water balance more accurately. With less uncertainty about where our water is going after we pump it out of the aquifer, we can manage it better; we can also offer fresh expertise to Amarillo’s surrounding communities on the true status and trends in the aquifer on which our rapid, suburban growth is relying.”</image:title>
