Riverbend Water Resources District

What Riverbend Water Resources District does

Riverbend Water Resources District is a Texas conservation and reclamation district that provides water and wastewater services to the Red River Army Depot and the TexAmericas Center industrial park across a 12,000-acre operational footprint in northeast Texas. Through formal Interlocal Agreements, it represents the water supply interests of Bowie, Cass, and Red River counties, 13 municipalities (Annona, Atlanta, Avery, DeKalb, Hooks, Leary, Maud, Nash, New Boston, Redwater, Texarkana (TX), and Wake Village), Central Bowie County Water Supply Corporation, Oak Grove Water Supply Corporation, and TexAmericas Center. The district also operates as the local representative on Lake Wright Patman Reservoir with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and coordinates with the Texas Water Development Board and Region D state water planning area.

The underlying technology is conventional water and wastewater infrastructure; no proprietary software products, digital platforms, or AI-driven systems are disclosed. Service delivery is conducted through direct provision via Interlocal Agreements, with the district functioning as a financing conduit for industrial projects and tax-exempt financing for municipal and rural projects. The district has completed a master plan for the area's water infrastructure and is executing a Regional Water System Improvements Program.

Revenue mechanics are fee-based: the district explicitly receives no tax revenues or appropriations, operating entirely on service fees from its anchor industrial and military customers and member municipalities. The entity is government-governed rather than investor-owned, with publicly disclosed board schedules, agenda packets, and consumer confidence reports indicating active ongoing operations through at least mid-2026. Customer concentration is anchored on a small number of large counterparties (Red River Army Depot and TexAmericas Center), with a long tail of municipal and rural water supply corporation partners.
