Members of our communications team (pictured below) attended the 2026 IABC Houston Bronze Quill Awards and we are thrilled to announce that our fall issue of Tierra Grande, titled “Wrangling Texas Water,” received both the Award of Excellence in the Communication Skills: Publications category and Best of Show, the ceremony's top honor. 🪶

This special issue features in-depth research on water supply and demand, municipal water use, planning strategies, and complex regulatory considerations. With water management top of mind across Texas, these insights add important context to today’s conversations.
