Petitioner filed a petition for creation of BRAZORIA COUNTY MUNICIPAL UTILITY DISTRICT NUMBER 23 (District) with the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission (TNRCC). The petition was filed pursuant to Article XVI, Section 59 of the Constitution of the State of Texas; Chapters 49 and 54 of the Texas Water Code; 30 Texas Administrative Code Chapter 293; and the procedural rules of the TNRCC. The petition states that: (1) the petitioner is the owner of a majority in value of the land to be included in the proposed District; (2) there are no lienholders on the land to be included in the proposed District ; (3) the proposed District will contain approximately 542.817 acres located within Brazoria County, Texas and Harris County, Texas; and (4) the proposed District is within or will be within the boundaries of the City of Pearland, Texas, and is not within such jurisdiction of any other city. By City of Pearland Resolution No. R2000-116, the City of Pearland, effective October 9, 2000, passed, approved and gave its consent to create District, and has given its authorization to initiate proceedings to create such political subdivision within its jurisdiction. The petition further states that the proposed District will (1) construct, acquire, maintain and operate a waterworks and sanitary sewer system for residential and commercial purposes; (2) construct, acquire, improve, extend, maintain and operate works, improvements, facilities, plants, equipment and appliances helpful or necessary to provide more adequate drainage for the property in the proposed District; and (3) control, abate and amend local storm waters or other harmful excesses of waters, as more particularly described in an engineer's report filed simultaneously with the filing of the petition. According to the petition, a preliminary investigation has been made to determine the cost of the project, and it is estimated by the petitioners, from the information available at this time, that the cost of said project will be approximately $19,700,000.

The TNRCC may grant a contested case hearing on this petition if a written hearing request is filed within 30 days after the newspaper publication of this notice. The TNRCC may approve the petition unless a written request for a contested case hearing is filed within 30 days after the newspaper publication of this notice.

UPPER GUADALUPE RIVER AUTHORITY (UGRA), applicant, 125 Lehmann Drive, Suite 100, Kerrville, Texas 78028 seeks an amendment to Water Use Permit No. 5394A, pursuant to §11.122, Texas Water Code, and Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission Rules 30 TAC §§ 295.1, et seq. Permit No. 5394A, authorizes permittee to divert not to exceed 2,000 acre-feet of water per annum from a point on the Guadalupe River authorized under City of Kerrville's Water Use Permit No. 3505 (Application No. 3769). Permit No. 5394A authorizes the total amount of water to be used for municipal purposes and/or injected into Hosston-Sligo Aquifer of the Lower Trinity Formation for subsequent retrieval for municipal purposes. Of the 2000 acre-feet of water authorized under the permit, 1661 acre-feet of the municipal water may be contracted by entities other than the City of Kerrville, either from the Guadalupe River or from water injected into the aquifer and subsequently retrieved, and the remaining 339 acre-feet of water may only be used for injection into the aquifer for storage to maintain the firm yield of the system. Water authorized for use under permit 5394A is included in a subordination agreement between the Guadalupe Blanco River Authority and the Upper Guadalupe River Authority and may be diverted at a maximum rate of 15.5cfs in combination with Permit No. 3505 and the City of Kerrville's Permit No. 5394B, subject to numerous restrictions, including special conditions allowing for water to be diverted only when the reservoir authorized under Permit No. 3505 is above 1608 M.S.L., and that between October and May water may only be diverted when the flow of the Guadalupe River downstream of aforesaid reservoir exceeds 40 cfs, and that between June and September permittee can only divert water when the flow of the Guadalupe below the reservoir exceeds 30 cfs. Also, if inflows in the reservoir are at or above 50 cfs, permittee can only divert if a flow of 50 cfs passes the reservoir. Pursuant to a Water Supply Agreement between Upper Guadalupe River Authority and Buckhorn Golf, Ltd., dated April 10, 2000, applicant seeks to authorize use of 160 acre-feet of water per annum of the "municipal" water for irrigation of 110 acres out of approximately 187.276 acres consisting of three tracts, being a 88.126 acre tract, a 2.15 acre tract, and a 97 acre tract of land out of the Justa Esqueda Survey No. 25, Abstract 157, Kendall County. Kendall County Water Control and Improvement District No. 1 owns 90.276 acres of the land to be irrigated and Buckhorn Golf II, Ltd owns the other 97 acres of land to be irrigated as evidenced by a deed recorded in Volume 598, Page 514 of the Deed Records of Kendall County. Buckhorn Golf II, Ltd. leases the 90.276 acres owned by the "District" in a lease agreement dated April 13, 1999. Buckhorn Golf II, Ltd. also has easement agreements with Lewis B. Schmitz, et ux and Lion's Lair Limited Liability Company for use of land needed to convey the water to the land to be irrigated. The applicant seeks to establish a diversion point in Kendall County, approximately 25 river miles downstream of the presently authorized diversion point on the Guadalupe River in Kerr County. The water will be diverted from a point on the left, or north bank of the Guadalupe River, located approximately 200 yards downstream of the Interstate Highway 10 bridge, approximately one mile east of the City of Comfort, Texas, also bearing South 41.2° East, 8217.92 feet from the USGS published Benchmark/Triangulation Station known as "Comfort 2", at 29.97° N Latitude and 98.88° W. Longitude. The water diverted under the Water Supply Contract will be diverted at a maximum rate of 1.1 cfs (500 gpm). The applicant does not seek an increase in the presently authorized rate of diversion in Permit No. 5394, as amended, of 15.5 cfs. Therefore, the combined rate of diversion at both the old and new diversion points will not exceed 15.5 cfs. Applicant seeks to maintain the same stream flow restrictions currently embodied in Permit 5394, as amended. This notice is being sent to the Guadalupe Blanco River Authority and to you as owner of one of 82 water rights with a diversion point in the Guadalupe River Basin Watershed between the diversion point authorized under Water Use Permit No. 5394A and the requested diversion point.

Written public comments and requests for a public meeting should be submitted to the Office of the Chief Clerk, at the address provided in the information section below by March 14, 2001. A public meeting is intended for the taking of public comment, and is not a contested case hearing. A public meeting will be held if the Executive Director determines that there is a significant degree of public interest in the application.

The TNRCC may grant a contested case hearing on this application if a written hearing request is filed by March 14, 2001. The Executive Director can consider an approval of the application unless a written request for a contested case hearing is filed by March 14, 2001. To request a contested case hearing, you must submit the following: (1) your name (or for a group or association, an official representative), mailing address, daytime phone number, and fax number, if any: (2) applicant's name and permit number; (3) the statement "[I/we] request a contested case hearing;" (4) a brief and specific description of how you would be affected by the application in a way not common to the general public; and (5) the location and distance of your property relative to the proposed activity.

Requests for a contested case hearing must be submitted in writing to the TNRCC Office of the Chief Clerk at the address provided in the information section below.
