The Brownsville City Commission has approved two significant water infrastructure projects that could receive up to $220 million in funding from SpaceX. During a meeting on September 22, the commission designated projects for the Brownsville Public Utilities Board and Southmost Regional Water Authority as eligible for this funding. One project aims to enhance BPUB’s potable-reuse system, potentially adding 8 million gallons per day, while the other focuses on expanding the Southmost facility to add another 10 million gallons daily. Together, these projects could increase the region's water capacity by 18 million gallons per day, pending further engineering and permits.
