The north unit doesn’t flood from the big lake, it’s actually the opposite. The wetlands are a joint project, managed by TPWD for habitat and recreation and by Tarrant Regional Water District for water supply/treatment. Water from the Trinity is pumped into the WMA and flows through the wetland cells, then is pumped into the lake. TRWD has a certain water right to use from the Trinity, and it would take a very serious drought to affect how much they can pull from the Trinity that far up their supply system. The reason wetland cells would be dry is for maintenance by TRWD or TPWD (supplemental planting, cutting, invasives control, gate/valve repairs, etc). They should be flooded again before season unless there is a maintenance issue.
