  • 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. (see item under “no action” section below) • §307.7. Site-specific Uses and Criteria (see item under “no action” section below) • §307.8. Application of Standards • §307.9. Determination of Standards Attainment • Appendix C - Segment Descriptions • Appendix D - Site-specific Receiving Water Assessments The following sections have been partially approved by EPA: • Appendix A.

    Information Sheet on Ramsar Wetlands Country: USA Ref: 4US013 Name and address of compiler: Thomas J. Cloud, Jr. Senior Staff Biologist US Fish and Wildlife Service 711 Stadium Drive East Suite 252, Arlington TX 76011, USA Name of wetlands: Caddo Lake State Park and Wildlife Management Area Date of Ramsar designation: 23/10/1993 Geographical coordinates: 32o42'-32o47'N; 94o5'-94o10'W. General location: The proposed area is state owned land associated with the headwaters of Caddo Lake in Harrison and Marion Counties of Northeastern Texas. The area, known as Caddo Lake State Park and Wildlife Management Area, lies entirely within the Cypress Bayou drainage basin of Texas and is located approximately 24.1km (15 miles) northeast of Marshall, Texas, and 40.2km (25 miles) northwest of Shreveport, Louisiana. Big Cypress Bayou, known as Twelve Mile Bayou downstream of Caddo Lake, is a major tributary to the Red River which enters the lower Mississippi River in Louisiana. Area: Approx. 3,237ha, consisting of 202ha in the state park unit and 3,035ha in the wildlife management area. All of the management area lies north of Cypress Bayou in Marion County, while the state park unit is situated entirely in Harrison County south of the bayou. Degree of Protection: The land is currently owned and managed by the State of Texas, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, as a unit of its public lands system. The wildlife management unit of the project was acquired in 1992 by the Department with the assistance of a donation by the Texas Nature Conservancy and a federal matching grant from the North American Wetlands Conservation Council.

  • 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).
