Brazos River Recreational Use Attainability Analysis, Part 4

The TCEQ has completed a report of its Recreational Use Attainability Analysis (RUAA) for Campbells Creek, Mud Creek, Pin Oak Creek, Spring Creek, and Walnut Creek. The TCEQ has not yet made any recommendations on the recreational use and is now soliciting public comment to assist us with that. Public input is very important and will ensure we have local knowledge and the most accurate information to identify the appropriate recreational use of the water body.
During this period, the public has the opportunity to read the report* and provide any additional information about recreational activities that occur in the water body. Once the comment period closes, TCEQ will use the comments to make the most informed recommendation for the recreational use category and criteria to be included in the Texas Surface Water Quality Standards.
The TCEQ will not issue a formal response to the comments at this stage. There will be another comment period after the recommendation on recreational use has been published. Comments can be submitted to standards@tceq.texas.gov or by mail to:

Kate Lavelle
TCEQ
MC-234
P.O. Box 13087
Austin, TX 78711

Instructions for submitting public comments can be found here[11]. There will be a 30 day public comment period closing on June 30, 2016 for the following water bodies:

• Campbells Creek
• Mud Creek 1242K
• Pin Oak Creek
• Spring Creek
• Walnut Creek 1242O

The public will have an opportunity to comment on the TCEQ’s recommendations. The recommendations will be published for comment in:
(1) the Texas Integrated Report,
(2) a Total Maximum Daily Load, or
(3) a revision to the Texas Surface Water Quality Standards.

Instructions for submitting comments will be posted to the Web when the recommendations are published.

Will be published on this web page when determined.
