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.

Download or read book Building a Foundation for Sound Environmental Decisions written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1997-08-01 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decades, environmental problems have attracted enormous attention and public concern. Many actions have been taken by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and others to protect human health and ecosystems from particular threats. Despite some successes, many problems remain unsolved and new ones are emerging. Increasing population and related pressures, combined with a realization of the interconnectedness and complexity of environmental systems, present new challenges to policymakers and regulators. Scientific research has played, and will continue to play, an essential part in solving environmental problems. Decisions based on incorrect or incomplete understanding of environmental systems will not achieve the greatest reduction of risk at the lowest cost. This volume describes a framework for acquiring the knowledge needed both to solve current recognized problems and to be prepared for the kinds of problems likely to emerge in the future. Many case examples are included to illustrate why some environmental control strategies have succeeded where others have fallen short and how we can do better in the future.
