Aransas National Wildlife Refuge SYLLABUS This Final Feasibility Report presents the results of investigations to provide protection to the critical habitat area of the endangered whooping crane. Justification for measures recommended in this report are based on provisions of the Endangered Species Act of 1973. The Gulf Intracoastal Waterway traverses approximately 31 miles of the critical habitat area and includes portions of the Aransas National Wildlife Refuge and the privately-owned Welder Flats area and State-owned Welder Flats Coastal Preserve located on the easterly portion of the study area. Erosion along the channel banks is occurring from a combination of causes, including waterway usage and natural processes. Various alternatives to reduce erosion through this reach and to minimize impacts from possible contaminant spills that could occur from waterway traffic were investigated. These measures included channel rerouting outside of the critical habitat, alternate routes within the critical habitat, and retention of the existing channel alignment. As a result of these investigations and through coordination with the various Federal and State resource agencies, the plan ultimately selected consists of providing 62,000 feet of bank protection for erosion control and the installation of permanent facilities for ready­ deployment of spill control measures. The recommended bank protection is in addition to that previously installed (prior to 1996) as well as that which is planned to be installed through 1997 under the Operations and Maintenance program. This report has demonstrated a Federal interest in providing erosion protection to areas within the critical habitat of the endangered whooping crane adjacent to the waterway and providing spill containment features and equipment to protect those areas from accidental hazardous spills. Total construction costs for this plan, including detail design costs, is estimated at $17,819,000, all of which will be Federal costs. Average annual maintenance cost for these plan features is estimated to be approximately $49,000. Operation, maintenance, repair, replacement, and rehabilitation will be the responsibility of the Corps of Engineers. Deployment of spill containment booms and clean-up following an accidental spill will be the responsibility of the Texas General Land Office, U.S. Coast Guard, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Project construction is currently planned to begin in April 1998 and be completed by October 2000. Associated with the plan, but not a part of the recommendation for Congressional authorization, is the development of a long-term dredged material management plan for future maintenance activities along this reach of the waterway. The long-term dredged material management plan provides for the beneficial use of channel maintenance material to create 1,614 acres of new marsh over a 50-year period. The disposal plan will be implemented through the Operations and Maintenance program. This report contains a Final Environmental Impact Statement which considers project impacts as well as those associated with the long-term dredged material disposal plan. The requirements of Section 404(r) of Public Law 92-500, as amended, have been met.

ACTION: Proposed rule. SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service or USFWS), propose to list six Central Texas mussel species: the Guadalupe fatmucket (Lampsilis bergmanni), Texas fatmucket (Lampsilis bracteata), Texas fawnsfoot (Truncilla macrodon), Guadalupe orb (Cyclonaias necki), Texas pimpleback (Cyclonaias (=Quadrula) petrina), and false spike (Fusconaia (=Quincuncina) mitchelli) as endangered or threatened under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act). After review of the best available scientific and commercial information, we find that listing Guadalupe fatmucket, Texas fatmucket, Guadalupe orb, Texas pimpleback, and false spike as endangered species is warranted, and listing Texas fawnsfoot as a threatened species is warranted. We propose a rule issued under section 4(d) of the Act (“4(d) rule”) for the Texas fawnsfoot. If we finalize this rule as proposed, it would add these species to the List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and extend the Act’s protections to the species. We also propose to designate critical habitat for all six species under the Act.

  • 2020 Basin Highlights Report a Watershed Characterization of Little White Oak Bayou, Clear Creek Tidal, Clear Creek Above Tidal, Mustang Bayou, and Halls Bayou
    2020 Basin Highlights Report A Watershed Characterization of Little White Oak Bayou, Clear Creek Tidal, Clear Creek Above Tidal, Mustang Bayou, and Halls Bayou INTRODUCTION Whether it is swimming, shipping, fishing, industry, or tourism, water is integral to the way of life for the 6.5 million people living in the Houston-Galveston region. With over 16,000 miles of streams and shorelines, water is all around us. The water that flows through our ditches, creeks, streams, bayous, and rivers feed into one of the nation’s most productive estuaries, Galveston Bay, before entering the Gulf of Mexico. These waters fuel our economy, bringing in billions of dollars and providing tens of thousands of jobs. Over 6.5 million people share these resources, and with another 3.8 million people expected to move to the region over the next 20 years, the strain put on these water resources will continue to rise. The 2020 Basin Highlights Report provides watershed characterizations for several stream segments within the region. This report characterizes the Little White Oak Bayou (Segment 1013A), Clear Creek Tidal (Segment 1101), Clear Creek Above Tidal (Segment 1102), Mustang Bayou (Segment 2432A), and Halls Bayou (Segment 2432C) watersheds. The watershed characterizations identify: • Specific water quality issues and trends; • Sources of point and nonpoint source pollution; • Current strategies and plans to reduce pollution within these watersheds; and • Current and potential stakeholders within these watersheds. H-GAC’s CLEAN RIVERS PROGRAM The Houston-Galveston Area Council’s (H-GAC) Clean River Program is charged with conducting water quality monitoring and assessment to determine the health of water bodies throughout the region.
