The study focuses on Idle Acres, Spring Hollow and Turkey Run subdivisions (IASHTR) in Bastrop, effected during the Hidden Pine Fires on October 13, 2015. There were 504 structures (refers to Homestead/Year Round or Non-Homestead/Vacation per Bastrop County Appraisal District BCAD) that were within these communities impacted by road closures or home loss. Of these, 64 structures were completely destroyed and two had confirmed partial damage. Only 30% of the homeowner’s impact would be covered by insurance. Other impacts to the neighborhoods would include debris clearance, road or bridge repairs, and public utility systems throughout the area. Overall, approximately 4,582 acres would be impacted by the wildfire. Approximately, 2,162 acres within the burn scar of the Bastrop Complex Fire (September 2011) and the remaining 2,420 acres outside the footprint of the Bastrop Complex Fire. The area outside the Bastrop Complex fire burn scar would be impacted the greatest with the majority of the homes lost located in heavy unburned vegetation. Map Figure 1 shows the location of the Hidden Pines Fire in relationship to the Bastrop Complex and Wilderness Ridge Fire (February 2009) within the county.

Nichols and Andrew P. Goldbloom Under the Direction of James A. 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. Although the above are gratefully acknowledged, they are absolved from any responsibility for any errors or omissions that may have occurred. ii TEXANS OUTDOORS: AN ANALYSIS OF 1985 PARTICIPATION IN OUTDOOR RECREATION ACTIVITIES TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction ...........................................................................................................

  • William Chapman 1642
    Descendants of William Chapman Generation 1 1. WILLIAM1 CHAPMAN was born in 1652 in Ipswich, Essex County, Massschuetts. He died in 1732 in Amesbury, Windham County, Connecticut. He married ELISABETH SMITH. She was born in 1657 in Ipswich, Essex County, Massachuetts. She died in 1732 in Windham, Connecticut. Notes for William Chapman: This William, born in 1642 in Ipswich, Essex County, Massschuettes, is the earliest Chapman about which my data gathering has been able to include. He was born the year Maryland was founded by English colonists sent by the second Lord Baltimore. Source:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maryland "Chapman is English: occupational name for a merchant or trader, Middle English 'chapman,' Old English, 'ceapmann,' a compound of 'ceap' or 'barter,' or 'bargain,' 'price,' 'property The name was brought independently to North America from England by numerous different bearers from the 17th Century onward. John Chapman (sic)was one of the free planters who assented to the 'FundamentalAgreement' of the New Haven Colony on June 4, 169." Source: Patrick Hanks, Editor, Dictionary of American Family Names,Oxford University Press, New York, New York, 2003, Card #929.40973D554 2003 V.1, Dallas Public Library, Genealogical Section, page 318. William was born the year the first Oberammergau Passion Play was done, 1642. He lived until 1732, when he died and is presumed interred at Amesbury, Windham County, Connecticut. Source:http://www.oberammergau.de/ot_e/passionplay/ There is one character of fame in the Chapman line to whom it would be desirable to document relationship. However, tracking down the actual connection has eluded me.

Arnold Committee Members, Nova J. Silvy William E. Grant David Scott Head of Department, Robert D. Brown August 2005 Major Subject: Wildlife and Fisheries Sciences iii ABSTRACT The Effects of Human Disturbance on Birds in Bastrop State Park. (August 2005) Heidi Ann Marcum, B.S., Tarleton State University; M.S., Baylor University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Keith A. Arnold With rapidly disappearing natural areas due to development and fragmentation, public lands provide important habitat for birds. However, the increasing use of public lands for recreation may decrease the value of these areas for bird use. Human disturbance can damage birds in many ways, including disrupting foraging or social behavior, increasing nest predation, interfering with parent-offspring and pair bonds, increasing nesting failures, and reducing the viability of fledglings. Additionally, birds may perceive humans as predators and leave an area, and the resulting decline in species abundance resembles the effects of habitat loss.

  • Biological Opinion Regarding the Issuance of an Endangered Species Act of 1973, As Amended, (Act) Section 10(A)(1)(B) Permit
    Biological Opinion for TE-065406-0 This document transmits the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's (Service) biological opinion regarding the issuance of an Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended, (Act) Section 10(a)(1)(B) permit. The federal action under consideration is the issuance of a permit authorizing the incidental take of the federally listed endangered Houston toad (Bufo houstonensis) under the authority of sections 10(a)(1)(B) and 10(a)(2) of the Act. Boy Scouts of America, Capitol Area Council No. 564 (BSA/CAC) has submitted an application for an incidental take permit under the Act for take of the Houston toad. An Environmental Assessment/Habitat Conservation Plan (EA/HCP) has been reviewed for mitigation acceptability. The implementing regulations for Section 10(a)(1)(B) of the Act, as provided for by 50 CFR 17.22, specify the criteria by which a permit allowing the incidental "take" of listed endangered species pursuant to otherwise lawful activities may be obtained. The purpose and need for the Section 10(a)(1)(B) permit is to ensure that incidental take resulting from the proposed construction and operation of a “High Adventure” camp on the 4,848-acre Griffith League Ranch in Bastrop County, Texas, will be minimized and mitigated to the maximum extent practicable, and that the take is not expected to appreciably reduce the likelihood of the survival and recovery of this federally listed endangered species in the wild or adversely modify or destroy its federally designated critical habitat. The two federally listed species identified within this EA/HCP include the endangered Houston toad (and its designated critical habitat) and the threatened bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus).
