- T Boone Pickens Plan for Mesa Water - Pickens on Wind and Drought - Popular Mechanics: Pickens is in the planning stages of a $1.5 billion initiative to pump billions of gallons of water from an ancient aquifer beneath the Texas Panhandle and build pipelines to ship them to thirsty cities such as Dallas.

But company officials and experts agree that a continuation of the drought impacting large portions of the United States could turn Pickens into something of a water baron.
