Project Description: Name or Designation of Project : Greenbelt - Cattail - Cherokee 138kV Transmission Line project Provide a general description of the project, including the design voltage rating (kV), the operating voltage (kV),the CREZ Zone(s) (ifany) where theprojectis located (al! or inparO, any substations and/or substation reactive compensation constructed as part of the project, and any series elements such as sectionalizing switching devices, series line compensation, etc. For HVDC transmission lines, the converter stations should be considered to beproject components and should be addressed in the project description. TNMP proposes to construct two new double-circuit capable 138 kilovolt (kV) transmission lines in Galveston County. The proposed 138-kV transmission lines will connect the existing Greenbelt Substation to the proposed Cattail Substation Site, then the proposed Cattatl Substation Site to the existing Cherokee Substation. The western-most substation (Greenbelt 3 Effective June 8, 2017 Page 3 of 528 Standard Application for a Certificate of Convenience and Necessity for a Proposed Transmission Line and Application for a Certificate of Convenience and Necessity for a Proposed Transmission Line Pursuant to 16 TAC § 25.174 Substation) is located at the northwest corner of the intersection of 27th Street South and 5th Avenue South. The eastern-most substation site (Cattail Substation Site) will be located northeast of the intersection of 6th Street South and 2nd Avenue South. The southern-most substation (Cherokee Substation) is located 0.15 mile southwest of the intersection of 14th Street South and TX 197 Loop South. The length of the proposed transmission line varies from 2.18 to 2.70 miles for the Greenbelt to Cattail Segment and varies from 1.58 to 1.89 miles for the Cattail to Cherokee Segment, depending on the route selected by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUC). Therefore, the total length of the proposed transmission line varies from 3.76 to 4.59 miles, depending on the route selected by the Public Utility Commission ofTexas (PUC) If the project will be owned by more than one party, briejly explain the ownership arrangements between the parties and provide a description of the portion(s) that will be owned by each party. Provide a description oj the responsibilities of each party for implementing the project (design, Right-of-Way acquisition, material procurement, construction, etc.). TNMP will own, operate, and maintain all transmission line facilities, Including conductors, wires structures, hardware, and rights-of-way. TNMP will also own, operate, and maintain the substation facilities. TNMP will be responsible for implementing all aspects of the prOJect. If applicable, identify and explain any deviation in transmission project components from the original transmission specifications as previously approved by the Commission or recommended by a PURA §39.151 organization. This provision is not applicable to the proposed project because it was not previously approved by the Commission, and it was not required to be submitted to a Public Utility Regulatory Act (PURA) §39.151 organization. 5. Conductor and Structures: Conductor Size and Type: 795 ACSS"Drake" Number of conductors per phase: 1 Continuous Summer Static Current Rating (A): 3204 Continuous Summer Static Line Capacity at Operating Voltage (MVA): 766 Continuous Summer Static Line Capacity at Design Voltage (MVA): 766 Type and composition of Structures : Steel Monopole Height of Typical Structures : 120 feet Estimated Maximum Height of Structures: 150 feet Explain why these structures were selected; include such factors as landowner preference, engineering considerations, and costs comparisons to alternate structures that were considered. Provide dimensional drawings of the typical structures to be used in the project. The double circuit steel monopole structures were selected based on cost and engineering purposes. The monopole allows TNMP to reduce costs compared to "H" frame construction. Fewer materials are needed with the monopole construction and a smaller easement is required for monopole construction. These steel pole structures assist TNMP in meeting the PUC system hardening requirements. 4 Effective June 8,2017 Page 4 of 528 Standard Application for a Certificate of Convenience and Necessity for a Proposed Transmission Line and Application for a Certificate of Convenience and Necessity for a Proposed Transmission Line Pursuant to 16 TAC § 25.174 For joint applications, provide and separately identify the above-required information regarding structures for the portion(s) of the project owned by each applicant.

  • Habitat Characteristics That Influence Maritime Pocket Gopher Densities
    The Texas Journal of Agriculture and Natural Resources 26:14-24 (2013) 14 © Agricultural Consortium of Texas Habitat Characteristics That Influence Maritime Pocket Gopher Densities Jorge D. Cortez1 Scott E. Henke*,1 Richard Riddle2 1Caesar Kleberg Wildlife Research Institute, MSC 218, Texas A&M University- Kingsville, Kingsville, TX 78363 2United States Navy, 8851 Ocean Drive, Corpus Christi, TX 78419-5226 ABSTRACT The Maritime pocket gopher (Geomys personatus maritimus) is a subspecies of Texas pocket gopher endemic to the Flour Bluff area of coastal southern Texas. Little is known about the habitat and nutritional requirements of this subspecies. The amount and quality of habitat necessary to sustain Maritime pocket gophers has not been studied. Our objectives were to assess the habitat, vegetation, and nutritional parameters available to Maritime pocket gophers at four different levels of gopher mound density. We chose study sites with zero, low (25-50 mounds/ha), intermediate (75-150 mounds/ha), and high (>200 mounds/ha) gopher mound densities. Vegetation and soil samples were collected using 0.25 m2 quadrats; vegetation was divided into above- and below-ground biomass for analysis. Maritime pocket gophers avoided areas of clay soils with high levels of calcium, magnesium, sulfur, and sodium compounds. A direct relationship existed between gopher activity within an area and vegetation biomass. However, nutritional quality of an area did not appear to be a determining factor for the presence of Maritime pocket gophers. KEY WORDS: Population density, Geomys personatus maritimus, habitat selection, Maritime pocket gopher, preference INTRODUCTION The Maritime pocket gopher (MPG, Geomys personatus maritimus) is endemic to the coastal areas of Kleberg and Nueces counties of southern Texas, between Baffin Bay and Flour Bluff (Williams and Genoways 1981).

Kiger, Editor This is a consolidated list of all works cited in volumes 19, 20, and 21, whether as selected references, in text, or in nomenclatural contexts. In citations of articles, both here and in the taxonomic treatments, and also in nomenclatural citations, the titles of serials are rendered in the forms recommended in G. D. R. Bridson and E. R. Smith (1991). When those forms are abbreviated, as most are, cross references to the corresponding full serial titles are interpolated here alphabetically by abbreviated form. In nomenclatural citations (only), book titles are rendered in the abbreviated forms recommended in F. A. Stafleu and R. S. Cowan (1976–1988) and F. A. Stafleu and E. A. Mennega (1992+). Here, those abbreviated forms are indicated parenthetically following the full citations of the corresponding works, and cross references to the full citations are interpolated in the list alphabetically by abbreviated form. Two or more works published in the same year by the same author or group of coauthors will be distinguished uniquely and consistently throughout all volumes of Flora of North America by lower-case letters (b, c, d, ...) suffixed to the date for the second and subsequent works in the set. The suffixes are assigned in order of editorial encounter and do not reflect chronological sequence of publication. The first work by any particular author or group from any given year carries the implicit date suffix "a"; thus, the sequence of explicit suffixes begins with "b". Works missing from any suffixed sequence here are ones cited elsewhere in the Flora that are not pertinent in these volumes.
