The county’s groundwater district approved up to $500 in partnerships with two local organizations working to clear out a littered Kendall County karst cave.
When the Cow Greek Groundwater Conservation District board of directors learned of a sink hole on a new county resident’s land littered with trash, the directors looked to partner with both the South Texas Geological Society and Bexar Grotto to help clean up the access point to the county’s water supply.
CCGCD Ground water technician Heath Hoffman said staff met with a member of the geological society at the site and climbed down the 20-foot ladder into the cave. It became clear it was something the society could clear out. However, assistance from CCGCD was sought to help fund a roll-off dumpster to get rid of any trash that comes out of the karst feature.
