Walter Cronkite

In parts of Texas, springs have ceased flowing. Aquifers are increasingly scrutinized by regulators and irrigators who nervously watch well pumps and water tables.

Against this backdrop, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department will air a video documentary about water resources.

Broadcast news legend Walter Cronkite will lend his distinctive voice to this project,

"Texas, the State of Springs" will air at 8 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 15 on Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) stations statewide.
