  • Chapter 307: Texas Surface Water Quality Standards (4/9/2008)
    Revisions to §307 - Texas Surface Water Quality Standards (updated November 12, 2009) EPA has not approved the revised definition of “surface water in the state” in the TX WQS, which includes an area out 10.36 miles into the Gulf of Mexico. Under the CWA, Texas does not have jurisdiction to regulate water standards more than three miles from the coast. Therefore, EPA’s approval of the items in the enclosure recognizes the state’s authority under the CWA out to three miles in the Gulf of Mexico, but does not extend past that point. Beyond three miles, EPA retains authority for CWA purposes EPA’s approval also does not include the application the TX WQS for the portions of the Red River and Lake Texoma that are located within the state of Oklahoma. Finally, EPA is not approving the TX WQS for those waters or portions of waters located in Indian Country, as defined in 18 U.S.C. 1151. The following sections have been approved by EPA and are therefore effective for CWA purposes: • §307.1. General Policy Statement • §307.2. Description of Standards • §307.3. Definitions and Abbreviations (see item under “no action” section below) • §307.4. General Criteria • §307.5. Antidegradation • §307.6. Toxic Materials.

  • Codes for the Identification of Hydrologic Units in the United States and the Caribbean Outlying Areas Date of Approval: July 1981 Maintenance Organization: U.S
    A U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY DATA STANDARD This report describes one of a series of data standards adopted and im¬ plemented by the U.S. Geological Survey for the standardization of data elements and representations used in automated Earth-science systems. Earth sciences are those scientific disciplines especially required to carry out the mission of the Geological Survey and are concerned with the material and morphology of the Earth and physical forces relating to the Earth. These disciplines include geology, topography, geography, and hydrology. The Geological Survey has assumed the leadership in developing and main¬ taining Earth-science data element and representation standards for use in the Federal establishment under the terms of a Memorandum of Understand¬ ing signed in February 1980 by the National Bureau of Standards of the Department of Commerce and the Geological Survey, a Bureau of the Depart¬ ment of the Interior. As such, in addition to developing and maintaining standards, the Geological Survey reviews and processes all requests referred by the National Bureau of Standards for exceptions, deferments, and revi¬ sion of standards applicable to Federal Earth-science information systems; assists the National Bureau of Standards in assessing the need, impact, benefits, and problems related to the implementation of standards being con¬ sidered for development, or developed, for use in the Earth sciences; and works with other agencies in developing new data standards in the Earth sciences. The standard described in this report has been specifically approved for use within the U.S. Geological Survey. If the standard has been approved for use throughout the Federal establishment, it is also published by the National Bureau of Standards as a Federal Information Processing Standard.

Dahmer, F. 1995. Caddo Was… A Short History of Caddo Lake. University of texas Press. This book narrates the natural history of Caddo Lake. The initial name recorded in 1840, was Sodo Lake. This name came from the Indian name Tso’to, which was a body of water twenty miles long and eight miles wide. Sodo or Soda Lake was roughly between present day Mooringsport and Shreveport, Louisiana. 1 This Lake was a result of the Red River overflow into what it is now called Caddo Lake. The same overflow of the Red River caused the Big, Little, and Black Cypress Rivers to back up, and the lake formed what was called Fairy Lake (Caddo Lake).

  • Chapter 3 Problem Identification
    CHAPTER 3 PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION &KDSWHU#6 3UREOHP#,GHQWLILFDWLRQ 7KLV chapter identifies the area of investigation’s problems and needs and presents environmental restoration, source water protection and water quality improvements, historic restoration, flood damage reduction, erosion protection, recreation, economic development, lake operation, and water supply opportunities. ENVIRONMENTAL RESTORATION The various habitat cover types within the Cypress Valley Watershed are discussed in the Cypress Valley Resource Inventory and depicted in the vegetation/land cover map that was generated using satellite imagery, ground-truthing, and Geographic Information System technology. The land cover map is shown on Figure 3-1. FOREST RESTORATION The Cypress Valley Watershed is located within the Pineywoods vegetational area of Texas and was historically dominated by forested land. Currently, mixed pine-hardwood forest is the predominant forested cover type in the watershed. These forests occur on uplands and are dominated by loblolly pine mixed with water oak, willow oak, red oak, post oak, sweetgum, maple, elm and sugarberry. Bottomland hardwood forests occur along drainages, floodplains, and at lower elevations where they are generally inundated or saturated with surface or groundwater periodically during the growing season. (Bottomland hardwoods can also be classified as wetlands, depending on hydrology, soil type, and vegetation composition). Bottomland hardwoods is the second most common forest type within the Cypress Valley Watershed. The predominant bottomland hardwood forest types that occur within the study area are the water oak/willow oak association and the elm/sugarberry association. Because of their natural resource values and threat of conversion to other land cover types, bottomland hardwoods are the focus of forest restoration recommendations in this report.
