DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR FRANKLIN K. LANE, Secretary UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY GEORGE OTIS SMITH, Director Water-Supply Paper 448 GAZETTEER OF STREAMS OF TEXAS PREPARED UNDER THE DIRECTION OF GLENN A. GRAY WASHINGTON GOVERNMENT FEINTING OFFICE 1919 GAZETTEER OF STREAMS OF TEXAS. Prepared under the direction of GLENN A. GRAY. INTRODUCTION. The following pages contain a gazetteer of streams, lakes, and ponds as shown by the topographic maps of Texas which were pre­ pared by the United States Geological Survey and, in areas not covered by the topographic maps, by State of Texas county maps and the post-route map of Texas. For many streams a contour map of Texas, prepared in 1899 by Robert T. Hill, was consulted, as well as maps compiled by private surveys, engineering corporations, the State Board of Water Engineers, and the International Boundary Commission. An effort has been made to eliminate errors where practicable by personal reconnaissance. All the descriptions are based on the best available maps, and their accuracy therefore depends on that of the maps. Descriptions of streams in the central part of the State, adjacent to the Bio Grande above Brewster County, and in parts of Brewster, Terrell, Bowie, Casg, Btirleson, Brazos, Grimes, Washington, Harris, Bexar, Wichita, Wilbarger, Montague, Coke, and Graysoh counties were compiled by means of topographic maps and are of a good degree of accuracy. It should be understood, however, that all statements of elevation, length, and fall are roughly approximate. The Geological Survey topographic maps used are cited in the de­ scriptions of the streams and are listed below. An index circular showing the area covered by each map may be obtained by applying to the Director, United States Geological Survey, Washington, D. C.

    Improving Water Quality in Dickinson Bayou One TMDL for Dissolved Oxygen

    Texas Commission on Environmental Quality Total Maximum Daily Load Program Improving Water Quality in Dickinson Bayou One TMDL for Dissolved Oxygen Water Quality in Dickinson Bayou Impaired Segment Stream Segment The state of Texas requires that water quality in Project Watershed Houston Seabrook Dickinson Bayou Tidal (Segment 1103) be suitable for Galveston swimming, wading, fishing, and a healthy aquatic HARRIS Bay ecosystem. However, water quality testing found that Webster Kemah dissolved oxygen levels in the water are occasionally low. Oxygen, which dissolves in water, is essential for the survival of aquatic life. While the amount of Friendswood Dickinson dissolved oxygen in water fluctuates naturally, various League City human activities can cause unusually or chronically low 1104 1103 dissolved oxygen levels which may harm fish and other Dickinson Bayou aquatic organisms. Alvin Texas City Santa Fe GALVESTON In response to these conditions, a total maximum daily La Marque load (TMDL) project has been initiated to evaluate the effects of low dissolved oxygen on aquatic life and to BRAZORIA determine the actions necessary to maintain water Hitchcock quality in the tidal portion of Dickinson Bayou. The goal of a TMDL is to determine the amount (or load) of a 012345 pollutant that a body of water can receive and still Miles K support its designated uses. This allowable load is then allocated among all the potential sources of pollution traffic. Rice fields in the upper watershed receive within the watershed. Measures to reduce pollutant irrigation water via canals from beyond the watershed. loads are then developed as necessary. The irrigation water returns to Dickinson Bayou in the form of irrigation return flows.

The taskforce will help develop and promote resources to assist the business community in remaining open while Galveston County continues to see a dramatic increase in the number of positive cases. In just the last month, the number of cases in League City has increased from 300 to 1,167. Resources developed by the taskforce will consist of guidelines and mitigation measures businesses can take to help slow the spread of the virus.

Deloney November, 1989 Comprehensive Planning Branch, Parks Division Texas Parks and Wildlife Department 4200 Smith School Road, Austin, Texas 78744 (512) 389-4900 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Conducting a mail survey requires accuracy and timeliness in every single task. Each individualized survey had to be accounted for, both going out and coming back. Each mailing had to meet a strict deadline. The authors are indebted to all the people who worked on this project. The staff of the Comprehensive Planning Branch, Parks Division, deserve special thanks. This dedicated crew signed letters, mailed, remailed, coded, and entered the data of a twenty-page questionnaire that was sent to over twenty-five thousand Texans with over twelve thousand returned completed. Many other Parks Division staff outside the branch volunteered to assist with stuffing and labeling thousands of envelopes as deadlines drew near. We thank the staff of the Information Services Section for their cooperation in providing individualized letters and labels for survey mailings. We also appreciate the dedication of the staff in the mailroom for processing up­ wards of seventy-five thousand pieces of mail. Lastly, we thank the staff in the print shop for their courteous assistance in reproducing the various documents.

The BBASC Work Plan is prioritized in three tiers, with the Tier 1 recommendations listed in specific priority order. Study efforts and activities listed in Tier 2 are presented as a higher priority than those items listed in Tier 3; however, within the two tiers the efforts are not prioritized.

    Appendix A 2012 Texas Integrated Report - Texas 303(d) List (Category 5) 2012 Texas Integrated Report - Texas 303(d) List (Category 5) As required under Sections 303(d) and 304(a) of the federal Clean Water Act, this list identifies the water bodies in or bordering Texas for which effluent limitations are not stringent enough to implement water quality standards, and for which the associated pollutants are suitable for measurement by maximum daily load. In addition, the TCEQ also develops a schedule identifying Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) that will be initiated in the next two years for priority impaired waters. Issuance of permits to discharge into 303(d)-listed water bodies is described in the TCEQ regulatory guidance document Procedures to Implement the Texas Surface Water Quality Standards (January 2003, RG-194). Impairments are limited to the geographic area described by the Assessment Unit and identified with a six or seven-digit AU_ID. A TMDL for each impaired parameter will be developed to allocate pollutant loads from contributing sources that affect the parameter of concern in each Assessment Unit. The TMDL will be identified and counted using a six or seven-digit AU_ID. Water Quality permits that are issued before a TMDL is approved will not increase pollutant loading that would contribute to the impairment identified for the Assessment Unit. Explanation of Column Headings SegID and Name: The unique identifier (SegID), segment name, and location of the water body. The SegID may be one of two types of numbers. The first type is a classified segment number (4 digits, e.g., 0218), as defined in Appendix A of the Texas Surface Water Quality Standards (TSWQS).
