The purpose of the survey was to determine the current volume of the lake at the conservation pool elevation as part of a reallocation pool study conducted by the United States Army Corps of Engineers. This survey will establish a basis for comparison to future surveys from which the location and rates of sediment deposition in the conservation pool over time can be determined. Survey results are presented in the following pages in both graphical and tabular form. The vertical datum used during this survey is that used by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) for the lake (Texoma) elevation gauge at Denison Dam. The official name of the gauge is “USCE 07331500 USCOE Lk Texoma nr Denison, TX”. The datum for this gauge is reported as mean sea level (msl). Thus, elevations are reported here in feet (ft) above msl. Volume and area calculations in this report are referenced to water levels provided by the USACE gauge (http://www.swt-wc.usace.army.mil/ReservoirDailyReport/). Denison Dam and Lake Texoma are located on the Red River (Red River Basin) five miles north of Denison, Texas (Figure 2). Lake Texoma is located in Texas and Oklahoma and inundates parts of Grayson and Cooke Counties, Texas and Marshall, Love, and Bryan Counties, Oklahoma. At conservation pool elevation (cpe) 617.0 ft above msl, the lake has approximately 580 miles of shoreline. Records indicate the drainage area is approximately 39,719 square miles of which 5,936 square miles is probably non-contributing (TWDB 1966). Lake Texoma serves for flood control, water supply, hydroelectric power and recreation purposes. Benefits downstream of Lake Texoma include regulating the Red River flows and improvement in navigation. 1 LAKE HISTORY AND GENERAL INFORMATION Denison Dam and appurtenant structures are owned by the U. S. Government and operated by the United States Army Corps of Engineers, Tulsa District. Authorization for the Lake Texoma Project was granted under several federal legislative acts beginning with the Flood Control Act approved June 28, 1938, Project Document HD 541, 75th Congress, 3rd Session (flood control and power). The latest federal legislation pertaining to Lake Texoma was Public Law 662, 99th Congress, 2nd Session that was approved November 17, 1986. The purpose of the legislation was to add recreation as a project purpose and authorized reallocation of additional storage for water supply (http://www.swt.usace.army.mil/projects/pertdata/laketexoma/laketexoma.htm). The states of Texas and Oklahoma have granted authorization to individuals and entities for water rights to Lake Texoma. These individuals and entities entered into contracts with the USACE for storage in Lake Texoma. Major water rights holders in the state of Texas are as follows: Red River Authority of Texas currently holds water rights under Certificate of Adjudication 02-4898 (Water Rights Permit No. 2969A) to impound and utilize water in Lake Texoma between elevations 590.0 ft to 617.0 ft. The owner is authorized to divert and use 250 acre-feet (ac-ft) of water per annum for irrigation use, 1,650 ac-ft of water for municipal purposes and 100 ac-ft of water per annum for mining purposes. Red River Authority of Texas also has water rights under Certificate of Adjudication 02-4899 (Permit No. 2295) to impound 450 ac-ft of water in Lake Texoma and can divert and use 250 ac-ft of water per annum for municipal purposes (Texas Water Commission 1987, Certificate of Adjudication 02-4898 and 02-4899). The City of Denison currently owns water rights to Lake Texoma under Certificate of Adjudication 02-4901 (Permit No. 1622). Authorization is granted to impound 24,400 ac-ft of water in Lake Texoma and to divert and use this amount for municipal purposes (Texas Water Commission 1987, Certificate of Adjudication 02-4901). 2 Greater Texoma Utility Authority was issued water rights under Permit No. 4301 on February 9, 1987. Greater Texoma Utility District is authorized to use 15,000 ac-ft of water annually for municipal purposes and 10,000 ac-ft of water annually for industrial purposes (Texas Water Commission 1987, Permit No. 4301). Certificate of Adjudication 02-2410A (Permit No. 5003) was issued to North Texas Municipal Water District on January 15, 1986 (Texas Water Commission 1986 Certificate of Adjudication 02-2410A). Authorization was granted to divert 84,000 ac-ft of water annually from Lake Texoma via pipeline to West Prong Sister Grove Creek to transport Lake Texoma water to Lake Lavon and to divert and use not to exceed 77,300 ac-ft of water of Lake Texoma water from Lake Lavon for municipal purposes. Texas Utilities (formerly Texas Utilities Electric Company) was granted water rights and currently holds Certificate of Adjudication 02-4900 (Permit No. 1939B). The owner is permitted to impound 16,400 ac-ft of water in Lake Texoma and divert and use 10,000 ac-ft of water annually for industrial (cooling) purposes (Texas Water Commission 1987, Certificate of Adjudication 02-4900). The State of Oklahoma has issued water rights permits to 22 individuals and entities authorizing the use of 4,376 ac-ft of water per annum for irrigation purposes. Only 13 ac-ft of water per year from Lake Texoma is used by four entities in Oklahoma for municipal water supplies (Oklahoma Water Resources Board, Lake Texoma Reservoir Summary). Lake Texoma is located in the Red River Basin; therefore, is under the jurisdiction of the Red River Compact by Act of Congress, Public Law No. 346 (84th Congress, First Session). The states associated with the Red River Compact are Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas. As stated in Article I, Section 1.01, Chapter 46 of the “Vernon’s Texas Codes Annotated Water Code (West Group, 2000), the principal purposes of the compact are: (a) To promote interstate comity and remove causes of controversy between each of the affected states by governing the use, control and distribution of the interstate water of the Red River and its tributaries. 3 (b) To provide an equitable apportionment among

  • Lake Texoma Water Management Frequently Asked Questions (Faqs)
    Lake Texoma Water Management Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) Q1: Why is Lake Texoma so low? A1: A combination of factors is contributing to the current lake level. Even though there was substantial rainfall last May-July, there has been very little precipitation since. We need to have significant rainfall across the entire watershed that feeds Lake Texoma to bring water levels back up. In general, a persistent exceptional drought for the last three years has gripped much of the Lake Texoma watershed. Inflows into the lake for 2011 were the lowest since its construction and 2013 saw the second lowest inflows. Evaporation of water is also a contributing factor. On an average year, Lake Texoma loses approximately six feet (74”) of water to evaporation. When the Lake Texoma basin does not get enough rain, the combination of evaporation and ongoing water usage will cause the lake level to drop. The primary ongoing water usage from Lake Texoma is for municipal/ industrial water supply and hydropower, which are critical in meeting needs for water and electricity. The lake is designed and required to allow authorized project purposes such as water supply and hydropower to continue during drought periods. By this design, Texoma has historically maintained an elevation of 612 or above, approximately 85 percent of the time. Q2: Why are there water releases from Denison Dam during drought? A2: The Flood Control Act passed by Congress in 1938 allowed for the construction of Denison Dam for the authorized purposes of flood control and hydropower production. Other authorized project purposes, such as water supply and recreation were added later.

  • Frequently Asked Questions About Southwestern's Vegetation
    One West Third Street Tulsa, OK 74103-3502 918-595-6600 www.swpa.gov Frequently Asked Questions – Lake Texoma Hydropower Generation April 3, 2014 Question. Why is Southwestern generating at Lake Texoma when the lake is so low? Answer. Southwestern is generating only a minimal amount to meet short-term peaking and critical power needs. The year 2013 marked the lowest generation year in the 70 year history of Lake Texoma and Denison Dam. The year 2011 was the second lowest. In fact, SWPA has been operating in drought mode since January 2011, generating only 25% of average. Since May 2012, generation has been even less, about 19% of average. Question. What gives Southwestern the right to generate at all? Answer. Southwestern is one of two project users which pay into the U.S. Treasury for water storage in Lake Texoma. The other is Municipal & Industrial (M&I) water supply. As an authorized user of the project with designated water storage, Southwestern has the right to use the water storage for which it has paid. That said, however, Southwestern and its customers have voluntarily reduced generation to save storage during the drought responsible for the low Lake Texoma elevations. Question. Who are Southwestern's customers at Denison? Answer. The entire output of the project is marketed to Rayburn Country Electric Cooperative and Tex-La Electric Cooperative, both of which are not-for-profit rural electric cooperatives serving electrical load mainly in the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) region. Question. What is ERCOT? Answer. ERCOT is one of nine Independent System Operators (ISO) in the United States.

  • Lake Texoma State Park Resource Management Plan Marshall County, Oklahoma
    Lake Texoma State Park Resource Management Plan Marshall County, Oklahoma Lowell Caneday, Ph.D. 6/30/2017 Fatemeh (Tannaz) Soltani, Ph.D. Chang-Heng (Hank) Yang This page intentionally left blank. i Acknowledgements The authors acknowledge the assistance of numerous individuals in the preparation of this Resource Management Plan (RMP). On behalf of the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department’s Division of State Parks, staff members were extremely helpful in providing access to information and in sharing of their time. The essential staff providing assistance for the development of the RMP included Julie Roach, manager of Lake Texoma State Park. Assistance was also provided by Kris Marek, Doug Hawthorne, Don Schafer and Ron McWhirter – all from the Oklahoma City office of the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department. Merle Cox, Regional Manager of the Southeastern Region of Oklahoma State Parks also attended these meetings and assisted throughout the project. This RMP supplements and updates an earlier document from 2009. Due to the events of the time, the 2009 RMP focused on other possible properties that could be considered for expansion and development within the Oklahoma State Park system. Given the events and circumstances present in 2017, this RMP focuses on the future of the properties remaining within the boundaries of the extant Lake Texoma State Park. The October 2016 kick-off meeting followed critical discussions between the Commissioners of the Land Office (CLO), OTRD, Pointe Vista, and other parties regarding properties formerly included in the original Lake Texoma State Park. Attending this kick-off meeting on behalf of Pointe Vista and Catfish Bay Marina was Ryan Chapman.
