13 Executive Summary This latest economic impact report on the Eagle Ford represents the 4 th installment in the series. Communities throughout South Texas continue to experience tremendous growth and stand to benefit from significant economic impacts as a result of natural gas, oil, and condensate development in the Eagle Ford Shale. Overall, oil and condensate production in the Eagle Ford has grown from 581 barrels per day in 2008 to over 1.1 million barrels per day as of June Natural gas production now tops 4 billion cubic feet per day. The Eagle Ford Shale continues to exceed expectations and currently attracts the most capital investment of any shale field in the U.S. This study assesses the economic impact of the Eagle Ford Shale for 2013, including direct, indirect and induced impacts in the 21 counties directly and indirectly involved in production. Lavaca County has been added to the geographical scope of this year s study. Also provided is an analysis of economic impacts of related businesses such as construction projects, manufacturing investments, as well as upstream, midstream and downstream impacts. Of particular note is the aspect of community sustainability. The ongoing activity - driven by energy companies and related industries - presents South Texas community leaders with a rare opportunity to ensure the long-term viability of their cities, towns and counties. As the natural gas, oil, and condensate production in the Eagle Ford continues to increase, the challenges facing community leaders are more critical than ever. Investments in infrastructure - roads, water, wastewater, K-12 education, medical facilities, etc. - are the key components that will provide the necessary foundation to ensure future sustainability of communities in South Texas. To address infrastructure investment, community leaders should be engaged with state legislators to develop systematic solutions to ensure that rural areas benefit from revenue sources such as the Economic Stabilization Fund. 1 Cities and counties that do not collect the two percent sales tax allowed by state law should consider doing so as well. The impact of Eagle Ford is far-reaching, but it will be up to community leadership to seize the opportunity. Estimates of overall economic impact for the 21-county area in 2013 top $87 billion, up from $61 billion in For 2023, the 21-county impact is estimated to reach nearly $155 billion, far higher than the $89 billion forecast for 2022 that we reported in the March 2013 economic impact study. The rationale for the upward revisions (as mentioned above) is due to the way the Eagle Ford continues to exceed expectations in terms of production. In addition, new manufacturing projects associated with the natural gas renaissance in the U.S., as well as new processing, refining and port facilities are factors driving increases in the economic impact statistics. 1 The Texas Economic Stabilization Fund (ESF) is more commonly referred to as the Rainy Day Fund and isexpected to approach $14 billion by the 2015 legislative session. Oil and gas severance taxes are currently providing the bulk of the funding for the ESF. 12

14 Scope This study examines the 15 core counties where activity is most prevalent in the Eagle Ford Shale. These counties are: Atascosa Gonzales Maverick Bee Karnes McMullen DeWitt La Salle Webb Dimmit Lavaca Wilson Frio Live Oak Zavala Additionally, this study examines 6 neighboring counties where significant activity, not including extraction, is occurring. These counties are Bexar Jim Wells Nueces San Patricio Uvalde Victoria 13

15 2013 Total estimated economic impacts For 2013, the oil and gas industry in the Eagle Ford is estimated to have contributed total impacts close to $72 billion in the core 15-county area, supporting almost 115,000 full-time equivalent jobs, while contributing just over $2 billion both to local governments and to the state government. The 21-county area, which includes the 15 core counties and 6 surrounding counties, is estimated to have contributed just under $90 billion in economic output, employing over 150,000 people, and provided over $2.2 billion to both the local governments and to the state government.

16 2023 Total estimated economic impacts For 2023, the core 15-county area is estimated to have an economic output of over $120 billion, employ 170,000 workers, and contribute approximately $4.5 billion to the local and to the state government. The 21-county area is estimated to contribute close to $155 billion in economic output, provide approximately 220,000 full-time equivalent jobs, and supply over $4.7 billion to both local governments and to the state.

18 General County Data In 2013, much of the economic development in Atascosa has centered in Pleasanton. In order to service Eagle Ford Clients in the shale region, Houston-based FlexSteel Pipeline Technologies, Inc., opened a 6,000 sq. ft. service center. The facility rests on two acres of land and supports four employees. 2 Pipe distributor, ISCO Industries Inc., out of Louisville, KY, also opened a 4,000 sq. ft. facility in Pleasanton, supplying leak- and corrosion-resistant, polyethylene pipe products. 3 In order to supply the millions of gallons of water required for the hydraulic fracturing process, the water-transfer firm, RCW Energy Services, opened an office in Pleasanton, a capital investment that increased its payroll in the area in addition to the allocation of new pipes, pumps, and storage equipment. 4 Other projects were announced in 2013 demonstrated new opportunities for other firms. With the influx of new hires by oil, trucking, and pipeline companies for Eagle Ford projects, there is a subsequent demand comprehensive background checks, including drug and alcohol testing, as a means to prevent on-field injuries. This need convinced the Greenville, South Carolina-based ARCpoint Labs to open of a new office in Pleasanton. 5 In November 2013, the Phoenix Hospitality Group announced the construction of a 70- acre, multi-family housing development, slated for completion in the second quarter of H.E. Butts Grocery Co. announced an expansion to the Pleasanton location. Once completed in August 2014, the project would double the size of the existing store. 7 Atascosa, a Texan county in the Eagle for Shale region consists of a total population of 46,446 thousand people.

23 Location Quotients for NRM Employment in Atascosa and 15-County EFS Area Location quotients are useful in determining the significance of a particular job sector in the local economy. This is determined by calculating the ratio of a particular job sector from the local economy with total jobs in the local economy. A location quotient greater than 1.0 denotes a sector that has greater importance to the local economy than that for the state. A location quotient less than 1.0 signifies that the sector is less important to the local economy when compared to the State. The location quotients for both Atascosa County and the 15-County EFS area as a whole have been over 1 for all five years, with Atascosa s peaking at 4.29 in The 15-County EFS area s location quotient has been steadily rising to 2.53 in Location Quotients for NRM Employment Source: Texas Workforce Commission, Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages data, from 2001 to
