For Texas, data were obtained from the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) from both existing Groundwater-Availability Models (GAM), and from historical groundwater-withdrawal data. For Louisiana data were obtained from the U.S. Geological Survey Lower Mississippi-Gulf Water Science Center, Baton Rouge, Louisiana office. For Mississippi data were obtained from the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality, and from the U.S. Geological Survey Lower Mississippi-Gulf Water Science Center, Jackson, Mississippi. For Alabama data were obtained from the Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs, Office of Water Resources, and from the U.S. Geological Survey Lower Mississippi-Gulf Water Science Center, Montgomery, Alabama office. For Florida data were obtained from the U.S. Geological Survey Caribbean-Florida Water Science Center, Lutz and Orlando Florida offices.
