WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
recognize Richard J. Tramm, who is stepping down as president of
the Lone Star Groundwater Conservation District after many years
of exceptional service; and
WHEREAS, Richard Tramm began his service to the district in

WHEREAS, Under his leadership, the Lone Star Groundwater
Conservation District has consistently worked to balance the
needs of large and small volume water users and to promote the
long-term viability of Montgomery County's groundwater supply;
he has been a consistent proponent of protecting the rights of
all well owners and of using the best available science in
managing the county's water supply; and
WHEREAS, An exemplary executive, he is respected and
admired by his colleagues, and his leadership at the Lone Star
Groundwater Conservation District will be greatly missed; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 85th

service and commitment to the Lone Star Groundwater Conservation
