The Bayou Meto water project, a significant undertaking aimed at conserving groundwater and assisting farmers across five counties, has reached a notable milestone. Senator Boozman has played a crucial role in securing federal investments to propel this initiative forward. The project's completion will see water channeled from the Arkansas River to nearly 300,000 acres of farmland in the Natural State. This development is also expected to improve flood risk prevention and contribute to habitat preservation.
