Environmental Study Plan for the Trinity River Basin, Texas
Abstract
The study plan in this report outlines the framework for a comprehensive environmental study of environmental conditions within the Trinity River Basin, in order to evaluate the environmental impact of the Trinity River Project. The planned research will concentrate on the investigation of natural processes and components present in the environment, the overlay of human activities on the natural system, and the effect of planned changes on both natural and human conditions existing within the basin. The proposed study is divided into four stages. Stage One involves an inventory of resources existing within the Trinity River Basin. Stage Two involves an intensive investigation and evaluation of the more significant areas to be affected by the project. Stage Three involves preparation of a mathematical model to synthesize information obtained during phases one and two. Stage Four involves preparation of the required environmental impact statement. In summary, the study plan has as its basic goal the investigation of natural processes and components present in the environment and consideration of feasible future changes.
