in a shared services arrangement must be considered high need according to
the criteria listed for a high-need LEA.
Description. The purpose of this program is to establish partnerships that
include a minimum of one high-need LEA and a mathematics department of an
IHE to create a professional development plan to enhance the implementation
of the revised Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills for mathematics adopted
by the State Board of Education in February 2005, and/or provide training
in the use of intervention programs and strategies for struggling students
in mathematics. The grant project timeline for professional development must
address time allocated for progress monitoring to ensure teacher implementation
of training received. Teachers currently teaching mathematics at Grades K-12
at participating high-need campuses are eligible for project participation.

TRD-200501528
LaDonna Castañuela
Chief Clerk
Texas Commission on Environmental Quality
Filed: April 13, 2005
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ or commission) is required
under the Texas Solid Waste Disposal Act, Health and Safety Code, Chapter
361, as amended (the Act), to annually publish a state registry that identifies
facilities that may constitute an imminent and substantial endangerment to
public health and safety or the environment due to a release or threatened
release of hazardous substances into the environment. The most recent registry
listing of these facilities was published in the September 24, 2004, issue
of the
Texas Register
(29 TexReg 9218).
In accordance with the Act, §361.184(a), the commission must publish
in the
Texas Register
and in a newspaper of
general circulation in the county in which the facility is located a notice
of intent to list a facility on the state registry of state Superfund sites.
With this publication, the TCEQ hereby gives notice of an area that the executive
director has determined is eligible for listing, and which the executive director
proposes to list on the state registry. This publication also specifies the
general nature of the potential endangerment to public health and safety or
the environment as determined by information currently available to the executive
director. This notice of intent to list this facility was also published on
April 22, 2005, in the
Midland Reporter Telegram
.
The facility proposed for listing is the City View Road Groundwater Plume
Site (the site) located in Midland, Midland County, Texas. The geographic
coordinates of the site are 31 degrees 59 minutes 25.91 seconds North Latitude
and -102 degrees 2 minutes 43.79 seconds West Longitude. The description of
the site is based on information available at the time the site was evaluated
with the Hazard Ranking System. The Hazard Ranking System is the principal
screening guide used by the TCEQ to evaluate potential, relative risk to public
health and the environment from releases or threatened releases of hazardous
substances. The description may change as additional information is gathered
on the sources and extent of contamination. The site was evaluated to have
a Hazard Ranking System score of 7.06.
The site is located northwest of the intersection of Interstate Highway
20 and State Highway 158 in the City View Road area in Midland, Texas. The
groundwater at the site is contaminated with perchloroethylene (also known
as tetrachloroethylene), petroleum hydrocarbons, and additives. The source
of perchloroethylene is unknown and the area of the contaminated plume is
not completely defined. The impacted water wells are clustered near Cloverdale
Road, Fairgrounds Road, and City View Road. The site is comprised of private
homes, trailers, and a few scattered small businesses.
The City View Road groundwater plume was discovered in 2003 during an investigation
of a crude oil spill from a pipeline leak. Water sample analysis indicated
the presence of benzene contamination. During All American Pipeline's investigation
in June and July of 2003, wells exhibited detectable concentrations of methyl
ethyl ketone, perchloroethylene, carbon disulfide, tetrahydrofuran, and trichlorofluromethane.
A public meeting may be requested regarding the proposed listing of the
City View Road Groundwater Plume site on the state Superfund registry. The
public meeting must be requested by submitting a written request by 5:00 p.m.,
on May 26, 2005. Interested parties may submit a written request for a public
meeting or may submit written comments to the commission relative to the proposed
listing of the site to the attention of Mr. Subhash C. Pal, P.E., Project
Manager, Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, Remediation Division,
MC 143, P.O. Box 13087, Austin, Texas 78711-3087 or facsimile at (512) 239-2450.
If a public meeting is requested regarding the proposed listing of this
facility on the state registry, the commission shall publish general notice
of the date, time, and location of the public meeting in the
Texas Register
and in the
Midland Reporter
Telegram
. The public meeting notice shall be provided not later than
the 31st day before the date of the meeting. If a public meeting is requested,
it will be legislative in nature and not a contested case hearing under the
Texas Administrative Procedure Act (Government Code, Chapter 2001).
A portion of the record for this site, including documents pertinent to
the executive director's determination of eligibility, is available for review
at the Midland College Library, Murray Fasken Learn Resource Center, 3600
North Garfield, Midland Texas, during regular business hours. Copies of the
complete public record file may be obtained during regular business hours
at the commission's Records Management Center, Records Customer Service, Building
E, First Floor, 12100 Park 35 Circle, Austin, Texas 78753, (800) 633-9363
or (512) 239-2920. Photocopying of file information is subject to payment
of a fee. Parking for persons with disabilities is available on the east side
of Building D, convenient to access ramps that are between Buildings D and
E.
For further information about this site or the proposed listing, please

Director, Litigation Division
Texas Commission on Environmental Quality
Filed: April 12, 2005
The executive director of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality
(TCEQ or commission) is issuing this public notice of a change in the remedial
action for the Materials Recovery Enterprises state Superfund site (the site),
in accordance with 30 Texas Administrative Code §335.349(b)(2). A copy
of this notice will also be published in the local newspaper.
The site is located approximately 1/4 mile north of Farm-to Market Road
604 and 1/2 mile east of U.S. 83, approximately four miles southwest of Ovalo,
Taylor County, Texas. The United States Air Force, operated the site as an
F-Class Intercontinental Ballistic Missile Site in the 1960s. In 1977, Materials
Recovery Enterprises, Inc. acquired and operated the facility as a Class I
industrial solid waste management facility and utilized the decommissioned
missile silo to dispose of waste waters from the metal finishing and electroplating
industries. Wastes were accepted at the site from approximately 1979 to 1984.
A public meeting was held on July 31, 2003, to receive comments on the
remedial action, which consisted of removal and treatment of the majority
of the silo water and then spray evaporation in an on-site irrigation area.
Additionally, the silo was to be filled with a combination of soil fill, flowable
fill, and/or low strength concrete. An Administrative Order (Docket Number
2002-0835-SPF) requiring certain agreeing parties to implement the selected
remedial action was issued by the commission on September 12, 2003.
During implementation of the selected remedial action approximately two
feet per day of silo water was evaporated on-site during the summer and fall
of 2004. However, during August, October, and November of 2004 excessive rainfall
created a large volume of storm water which was captured in the on-site irrigation
area, thus negating much of the progress in water evaporation.
Therefore, the TCEQ intends to modify the selected remedial action such
that accumulated storm water and approximately half of the silo water would
be disposed of in an approved off-site disposal well. The remaining silo water
would be solidified using fluidized bed ash and then returned to the silo
to form a solid fill. Other aspects of the previously selected remedy would
be unchanged.
The change in the remedy affects the scope, performance, or cost of the
selected remedial action, but uses the same approach and results in a remedial
action at least as protective as the originally proposed remedy.
For further information, please contact the project manager, Jeffrey E.
Patterson, Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, Remediation Division,

Notice of Intent to Make Minor Changes to the Texas Coastal Impact Assistance Program Plan and Request for Public Comment
The Texas General Land Office (Land Office) seeks public comment regarding
proposed minor changes to the Texas Coastal Impact Assistance Plan (Plan),
found on the Land Office's web site at www.glo.state.tx.us/coastal/ciap/plan/index.html.
The Plan identifies procedures for the expenditure of federal funds awarded
to Texas under the Coastal Impact Assistance Program (CIAP).
The Plan contains procedures for the "Land Office Allocation of State's
Portion of CIAP Funding" in Section IV.A.i. This Section of the Plan provides
for the reallocation of funds to other projects should a project be completed
under budget. The Plan does not, however, contain procedures for the Land
Office's approval of changes to an authorized project, nor does it provide
for the allocation of unused funds from projects terminated due to the inability
of a project sponsor to complete an authorized project.
The proposed minor changes will provide procedures for authorizing a change
to a project that is consistent with the project purposes in the approved
CIAP Plan. The proposed minor changes will also allow the reallocation of
unused funds, provided that the reallocated funds are used for projects that
are directly and immediately relevant to the goals of the CIAP. The modified
section of the Plan would read as follows:
i. Land Office Allocation of State Portion of CIAP
Funding
The Land Office received 129 projects requesting CIAP funding, totaling
approximately $135 million. In evaluating and selecting projects, priority
was given to projects that were located inside the coastal zone; provided
broad geographic distribution; and maximized environmental and economic benefits
to the entire coast. The Land Office dedicated the State portion of the CIAP
funds to the following uses: coastline protection, education and research,
habitat conservation, growth management, and wetlands conservation. It should
be noted that most of the projects selected fit into more than one category;
therefore, the predominant project purpose was used to categorize the projects.
Coastline Protection $477,000
Education and Research $2,448,435
Habitat Conservation $3,545,000
Growth Management $1,261,000
Wetlands Conservation $1,977,750
The projects selected for state CIAP funding are specifically described
on NOAA checklists and organized alphabetically by project name in Appendix
D and project locations are depicted on a map in Appendix E.
Should it be necessary to make a change to a selected project, the Land Office
may authorize the change if it is consistent with the allowable CIAP project
purposes. NOAA will be notified in advance of any project change.
The
project budgets are based on the best available information and it is anticipated
that funds will be expended as budgeted; however, it is entirely possible
that a project may come in under budget,
or that a
project may be terminated because it is impossible to carry out the project
. In
either
[that] event, remaining unused
funds will be allocated to one or more of the selected projects that did not
receive the full amount requested or to one or more projects identified by
the Land Office as both essential to coastal resource management and directly
and immediately relevant to the stated goals of the Coastal Impact Assistance
Program. NOAA will be notified in advance of any reallocation among the selected
projects.
The Land Office is authorized to make minor changes to the Plan in accordance
with the CIAP Legislation, Section 31(d)(4) of the Outer Continental Shelf
Lands Act (43 U.S.C. 1356a), and the
Final Coastal
Impact Assistance Program Administration and Plan Development Guidance
,
66 Federal Register 51396-51400, October 9, 2001.

Notice is given to the public of a joint application for sale, transfer,
or merger filed with the Public Utility Commission of Texas on April 8, 2005,
pursuant to the Public Utility Regulatory Act, Texas Utilities Code Annotated §14.101
and §37.154 (Vernon 1998 & Supplement 2005) (PURA).
Docket Style and Number: Joint Application of AEP Texas North Company and
LCRA Transmission Services Corporation to Transfer Certificate Rights and
for Approval of Transfer of Facilities, Docket Number 30996.
The Application: AEP Texas Central Company (TCC) and LCRA Transmission
Services Corporation (LCRA TSC) (Applicants) request approval to transfer
from TCC to LCRA TSC two transmission facilities and associated certificate
of convenience and necessity (CCN) rights. TCC holds CCN Number 30028 and
LCRA TSC holds CCN Number 30110. TCC owns two 69 kV transmission lines located
in Aransas County (the Rockport to Fulton transmission line) and Starr County
(the Garceno to Roma transmission line), which are being rebuilt to 138 kV
design standards and will be capable of 138 kV operation, although both facilities
will continue to operate initially at 69 kV. The Rockport to Fulton transmission
line rebuild project is contained within the Rebuild Rockport to Fulton 69
kV Line Project Agreement. The 7.35 mile line is located in Aransas County
and is a rebuild of a 69 kV line from 4/0 to 795 ACSR conductor between the
TCC Rockport and Fulton Substations. This transmission line will increase
power transfer capacity in the Rockport area. The Garceno to Roma transmission
line rebuild project is contained within the Project Agreement titled Rio
Grande 69 kV to 138 kV Conversion Project. The 5.4 mile Garceno-Roma 69 kV
transmission line is located in Starr County and is a rebuild of a 69 kV transmission
line from 4/0 to 795 ACSR conductor between the TCC Garceno and Roma Substations.
This transmission line is one of several listed in this project agreement
that will resolve various overload conditions by several transmission facility
outage conditions. For these transmission facilities, the existing 69 kV facilities
are being removed and retired, and the rebuilding of the lines qualifies both
as exempt CCNs under P.U.C. Substantive Rule §25.101(c)(5)(B). The Rockport
to Fulton project is anticipated to be completed on June 2, 2005, and the
Garceno to Roma project is anticipated to be completed on April 22, 2005.
