Book Description
Three volume status report of environmental evaluation of Trinity River Project. This includes: (1) Authorized Project Plan that provides for flood control, recreation, water supply, navigation fish and wildlife program, hydroelectric power and the Multiple-purpose Channel; (2) National Economic Development Plan that is similar to the Authorized Project Plan, but has many features that delete adverse effects to natural resources to reduce cost; (3) Environmental Quality Plan that is a nonstructural multiple-purpose plan of no action in regard to navigation and hydroelectric power for the Corps of Engineers. It proposes land use regulations for the entire Trinity River flood plain and proposes water conservation in lieu of added development for increasing the water supply; (4) No Action Plan; (5) Authorized Project Plan Without Navigation that includes flood control, reservoir regulation channel, strengthen existing agricultural levees, and enlarge Tennessee Colony Lake. This plan reduces some of the adverse effects on natural resources; (6) Authorized Project Plan Without Navigation, Provisions for Future Navigation. This is the same as the previous plan except providing for navigation in the initial stages of design and construction; and (7) Authorized Project Plan, Navigation Terminated Downstream from Dallas. Similar to Authorized Project Plan except for the flood control channel. Tax and bond issues were rejected by voters. Congress directed Corps of Engineers to cease further planning for fiscal year 1974 and 1975.
