1 The Neches River Above Lake Palestine, Prairie Creek, Mud Creek, and West Mud Creek Recreational Use Attainability Analysis Summary of Findings & Public Comment Texas Institute for Applied Environmental Research Stephenville, Texas August 4,2015 1
2 Project Partners Texas State Soil and Water Conservation Board (TSSWCB) Texas Institute for Applied Environmental Research (TIAER) 2
3 TSSWCB Provide state oversight Management and coordination of project activities Project partners Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) Provide project funding 3
4 TIAER Project administration Develop & maintain stakeholder relations Perform RUAA survey activities GIS inventory Facilitate meetings Develop final technical reports 4
5 Why we are here Texas 303 (d) List of Impaired Water bodies Developed by TCEQ to summarize the condition of the state s surface waters, including concerns for public health, fitness for use by aquatic species and other wildlife, and specific pollutants and their possible sources. 5
6 Bacteria Impairment The Neches River Above Lake Palestine and Prairie, Mud, and West Mud Creeks are not meeting the water quality standard for primary contact recreation Due to elevated levels of bacteria, E. coli. Requires action to meet the standards that are set by the State of Texas and EPA. Geometric mean should not exceed 126 cfu/ 100ml 6
7 What is the Texas 303 (d) List? Requirement of the Clean Water Act Developed by TCEQ to summarize the condition of the state s surface waters, including concerns for public health, fitness for use by aquatic species and other wildlife, and specific pollutants. 7
8 Why we chose this approach Once on the 303(d) List, action is required by the state Viable Candidate The Most Cost Effective Non Regulatory Approach State Led, Not Federal 8
9 Purpose of RUAA Collect information that will: 1. Confirm or deny primary contact recreation 2. Provide evidence to support a change in recreational use category of the impaired creeks Recreational Use Categories: 1. Primary Contact Recreation 2. Secondary Contact Recreation 1 3. Secondary Contact Recreation 2 4. Noncontact Recreation 9
