APPLICATION: Republic Waste Services of Texas, Ltd., 1212 Harrison Avenue, Arlington, Tarrant County, Texas 76011, has applied to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) for a new permit for the Brazos Transfer Station. The proposed Type V municipal solid waste transfer station is requesting a permit in order to accept household waste, yard waste, commercial waste, industrial nonhazardous waste, and construction-demolition waste. The facility is located approximately 0.3 miles southwest of the intersection of IH-20 and Nu Energy Drive, Aledo, Parker County, Texas. The TCEQ received the application on April 7, 2008. The permit application is available for viewing and copying at the East Parker County Library, 201 N. FM 1187, Aledo, Parker County, Texas.

ADDITIONAL NOTICE: TCEQ's Executive Director has determined the application is administratively complete and will conduct a technical review of the application. After technical review of the application is complete, the Executive Director may prepare a draft permit and will issue a preliminary decision on the application. Notice of the Application and Preliminary Decision will be published and mailed to those who are on the county-wide mailing list and to those who are on the mailing list for this application. That notice will contain the deadline for submitting public comments.

PUBLIC COMMENT/PUBLIC MEETING: You may submit public comments or request a public meeting on this application. The purpose of a public meeting is to provide the opportunity to submit comments or to ask questions about the application. TCEQ will hold a public meeting if the Executive Director determines that there is a significant degree of public interest in the application or if requested by a local legislator. A public meeting is not a contested case hearing.

OPPORTUNITY FOR A CONTESTED CASE HEARING: After the deadline for submitting public comments, the Executive Director will consider all timely comments and prepare a response to all relevant and material, or significant public comments. Unless the application is directly referred for a contested case hearing, the response to comments, and the Executive Director's decision on the application, will be mailed to everyone who submitted public comments and to those persons who are on the mailing list for this application. If comments are received, the mailing will also provide instructions for requesting reconsideration of the Executive Director's decision and for requesting a contested case hearing. A person who may be affected by the facility is entitled to request a contested case hearing from the commission. A contested case hearing is a legal proceeding similar to a civil trial in state district court.

TO REQUEST A CONTESTED CASE HEARING, YOU MUST INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING ITEMS IN YOUR REQUEST: your name, address, phone number; applicant's name and permit number; the location and distance of your property/activities relative to the facility; a specific description of how you would be adversely affected by the facility in a way not common to the general public; and, the statement "I/we request a contested case hearing." If the request for contested case hearing is filed on behalf of a group or association, the request must designate the group's representative for receiving future correspondence; identify an individual member of the group who would be adversely affected by the facility or activity; provide the information discussed above regarding the affected member's location and distance from the facility or activity; explain how and why the member would be affected; and explain how the interests the group seeks to protect are relevant to the group's purpose. Following the close of all applicable comment and request periods, the Executive Director will forward the application and any requests for reconsideration or for a contested case hearing to the TCEQ Commissioners for their consideration at a scheduled Commission meeting.

The Commission will only grant a contested case hearing on disputed issues of fact that are relevant and material to the Commission's decision on the application. Further, the Commission will only grant a hearing on issues that were raised in timely filed comments that were not subsequently withdrawn.

MAILING LIST: If you submit public comments, a request for a contested case hearing or a reconsideration of the Executive Director's decision, you will be added to the mailing list for this specific application to receive future public notices mailed by the Office of the Chief Clerk. In addition, you may request to be placed on: (1) the permanent mailing list for a specific applicant name and permit number; and/or (2) the mailing list for a specific county. If you wish to be placed on the permanent and/or the county mailing list, clearly specify which list(s) and send your request to TCEQ Office of the Chief Clerk at the address below.

AGENCY CONTACTS AND INFORMATION: All written public comments and requests must be submitted to the Office of the Chief Clerk, MC 105, TCEQ, P.O. Box 13087, Austin, TX 78711-3087.

To claim a "PIECES OF EIGHT" Instant Game prize of $2.00, $4.00, $5.00, $10.00, $20.00, $50.00, $100 or $500, a claimant shall sign the back of the ticket in the space designated on the ticket and present the winning ticket to any Texas Lottery Retailer. The Texas Lottery Retailer shall verify the claim and, if valid, and upon presentation of proper identification, if appropriate, make payment of the amount due the claimant and physically void the ticket; provided that the Texas Lottery Retailer may, but is not required to pay a $50.00, $100 or $500 ticket. In the event the Texas Lottery Retailer cannot verify the claim, the Texas Lottery Retailer shall provide the claimant with a claim form and instruct the claimant on how to file a claim with the Texas Lottery. If the claim is validated by the Texas Lottery, a check shall be forwarded to the claimant in the amount due. In the event the claim is not validated, the claim shall be denied and the claimant shall be notified promptly. A claimant may also claim any of the above prizes under the procedure described in Section 2.3.B and Section 2.3.C of these Game Procedures.

B. To claim a "PIECES OF EIGHT" Instant Game prize of $2,000 or $20,000, the claimant must sign the winning ticket and present it at one of the Texas Lottery's Claim Centers. If the claim is validated by the Texas Lottery, payment will be made to the bearer of the validated winning ticket for that prize upon presentation of proper identification. When paying a prize of $600 or more, the Texas Lottery shall file the appropriate income reporting form with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and shall withhold federal income tax at a rate set by the IRS if required. In the event that the claim is not validated by the Texas Lottery, the claim shall be denied and the claimant shall be notified promptly.

C. As an alternative method of claiming a "PIECES OF EIGHT" Instant Game prize, the claimant must sign the winning ticket, thoroughly complete a claim form, and mail both to: Texas Lottery Commission, Post Office Box 16600, Austin, Texas 78761-6600. The risk of sending a ticket remains with the claimant. In the event that the claim is not validated by the Texas Lottery, the claim shall be denied and the claimant shall be notified promptly.

D. Prior to payment by the Texas Lottery of any prize, the Texas Lottery shall deduct a sufficient amount from the winnings of a person who has been finally determined to be:

1. delinquent in the payment of a tax or other money collected by the Comptroller, the Texas Workforce Commission, or Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission;

2. delinquent in making child support payments administered or collected by the Attorney General;

4. in default on a loan made under Chapter 52, Education Code; or

5. in default on a loan guaranteed under Chapter 57, Education Code.

E. If a person is indebted or owes delinquent taxes to the State, other than those specified in the preceding paragraph, the winnings of a person shall be withheld until the debt or taxes are paid.

2.4 Allowance for Delay of Payment. The Texas Lottery may delay payment of the prize pending a final determination by the Executive Director, under any of the following circumstances:

A. if a dispute occurs, or it appears likely that a dispute may occur, regarding the prize;

B. if there is any question regarding the identity of the claimant;

C. if there is any question regarding the validity of the ticket presented for payment; or

D. if the claim is subject to any deduction from the payment otherwise due, as described in Section 2.3.D of these Game Procedures. No liability for interest for any delay shall accrue to the benefit of the claimant pending payment of the claim.

2.5 Payment of Prizes to Persons Under 18. If a person under the age of 18 years is entitled to a cash prize of less than $600 from the "PIECES OF EIGHT" Instant Game, the Texas Lottery shall deliver to an adult member of the minor's family or the minor's guardian a check or warrant in the amount of the prize payable to the order of the minor.

2.6 If a person under the age of 18 years is entitled to a cash prize of more than $600 from the "PIECES OF EIGHT" Instant Game, the Texas Lottery shall deposit the amount of the prize in a custodial bank account, with an adult member of the minor's family or the minor's guardian serving as custodian for the minor.

2.7 Instant Ticket Claim Period. All Instant Game prizes must be claimed within 180 days following the end of the Instant Game or within the applicable time period for certain eligible military personnel as set forth in Texas Government Code §466.408. Any prize not claimed within that period, and in the manner specified in these Game Procedures and on the back of each ticket, shall be forfeited.

2.8 Disclaimer. The number of prizes in a game is approximate based on the number of tickets ordered. The number of actual prizes available in a game may vary based on number of tickets manufactured, testing, distribution, sales and number of prizes claimed. An Instant Game ticket may continue to be sold even when all the top prizes have been claimed.

3.0 Instant Ticket Ownership.

A. Until such time as a signature is placed upon the back portion of an Instant Game ticket in the space designated, a ticket shall be owned by the physical possessor of said ticket. When a signature is placed on the back of the ticket in the space designated, the player whose signature appears in that area shall be the owner of the ticket and shall be entitled to any prize attributable thereto. Notwithstanding any name or names submitted on a claim form, the Executive Director shall make payment to the player whose signature appears on the back of the ticket in the space designated. If more than one name appears on the back of the ticket, the Executive Director will require that one of those players whose name appears thereon be designated by such players to receive payment.

B. The Texas Lottery shall not be responsible for lost or stolen Instant Game tickets and shall not be required to pay on a lost or stolen Instant Game ticket.

4.0 Number and Value of Instant Prizes. There will be approximately 8,040,000 tickets in the Instant Game No. 1050. The approximate number and value of prizes in the game are as follows:

FIGURE 2: GAME NO. 1050 - 4.0

5.0 End of the Instant Game. The Executive Director may, at any time, announce a closing date (end date) for the Instant Game No. 1050 without advance notice, at which point no further tickets in that game may be sold.

6.0 Governing Law. In purchasing an Instant Game ticket, the player agrees to comply with, and abide by, these Game Procedures for Instant Game No. 1050, the State Lottery Act (Texas Government Code, Chapter 466), applicable rules adopted by the Texas Lottery pursuant to the State Lottery Act and referenced in 16 TAC, Chapter 401, and all final decisions of the Executive Director.

Texas State Technical College System

Notice of Contract Award

This publication is filed pursuant to Texas Government Code, §2254.030. The Invitation to Bid on Economic Consulting Services was published in the May 2, 2008, issue of the Texas Register (33 TexReg 3695).

DESCRIPTION OF ACTIVITIES OF PRIVATE CONSULTANT:

Texas State Technical College (TSTC) System has entered into a major consulting services contract for the following services:

The TSTC System has been a vital part of the educational complex of the state for decades and is a major source of skilled workers that serve to make Texas competitive for high growth enterprises. At present, however, TSTC receives much of its funding based on a set of parameters and formulas which is less than optimal. In particular, the current approach provides incentives to maximize contact hours and offer two-year programs. In reality, many of the most critical technical occupations currently require certifications and training that can be accomplished in a shorter period of time. Both students and employers prefer this approach, and it is more in line with the overall curricula and programs of TSTC within the Texas educational complex. Thus, the current funding mechanism creates inefficiencies and outcomes which neither make the best use of fiscal resources nor maximize the potential benefits to economic competitiveness. To alleviate this situation, TSTC is proposing a new approach to its appropriations which is results-oriented and tied to its economic and revenue contributions. The purpose of the consulting services sought is to quantify the potential benefits of this alternative mechanism.

Contractor will conduct all initial research necessary to prepare the analysis.

Contractor will define and compile the appropriate inputs to be used in the impact assessment process.

Contractor will evaluate the overall economic impact of the current programs at TSTC on business activity in Texas using the information described above and the Texas Multi-Regional Impact Assessment System. The analysis will include an estimate of the effect on state fiscal revenues.

Contractor will define two illustrative scenarios of potential performance which are realistic under a more "outcomes" focused system. Contractor will then evaluate these patterns using the approach described above.

Contractor will prepare a comprehensive report setting forth the results of this study and placing them in a proper economic and fiscal perspective.

NAME AND BUSINESS ADDRESS OF PRIVATE CONSULTANT:

The private consultant engaged by the TSTC System for these activities is The Perryman Group, whose business address is 510 N. Valley Mills Dr., Suite 300, Waco, TX 76710.

TOTAL VALUE AND TERM OF THE CONTRACT:

The total value of the contract is $51,200. The term of the contract began on June 2, 2008, and will terminate on August 2, 2008, or upon completion of work described herein.

DATES ON WHICH REPORTS ARE DUE:

The final report regarding the study will be provided within 60 days of provision of the input information and is estimated to be August 15, 2008.

For information regarding this publication, contact Dr. J. Gary Hendricks, Vice Chancellor for Financial and Administrative Services, at (254) 867-3952.

Public Notice of Final Environmental Impact Statement (Grand Parkway Segment F-1, Harris County, Texas)

In the May 30, 2008 issue of the Texas Register (33 TexReg 4390), the Texas Department of Transportation, Environmental Division, published a Notice of Final Environmental Impact Statement (Grand Parkway Segment F-1, Harris County, Texas). The deadline date for comments has been changed and extended. The following notice is re-published with the new deadline.

Pursuant to 43 Texas Administrative Code §2.5(e)(8)(B), the Texas Department of Transportation is advising the public of the availability of the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for the proposed construction of State Highway 99, US 290 to SH 249 (the Grand Parkway Segment F-1) northwest of Houston in Harris County, Texas. Comments regarding the FEIS should be submitted to The Grand Parkway Association, Attention: Segment F-1 Comments, located at 4544 Post Oak Place, Suite 222, Houston, Texas 77027 or the Director of Project Development at the Texas Department of Transportation's Houston District Office located at 7600 Washington Avenue, Houston, Texas prior to 5:00 p.m. on July 10, 2008 . The Texas Department of Transportation's mailing address is P.O. Box 1386, Houston, Texas, 77251-1386.

The purpose of the proposed action is to provide improved access to the existing and future thoroughfare system, reduce area traffic congestion, improve safety, and improve area-wide mobility. A full range of alternatives were identified and evaluated for Segment F-1 at the corridor level (five corridors), transportation mode level (No Build, Transportation System Management Alternatives (TSM), Travel Demand Alternatives (TDM), and Modal Alternatives), and at the alignment level. The proposed action consists of the construction of a controlled access tollway from US 290 to SH 249 in Harris County, a distance ranging from 12.03 to 12.73 miles, depending on the alternative alignment considered. The proposed facility will consist of a four-mainlane controlled access tollway within a 400-foot (ROW) width. A total of three build alternative alignments, in addition to the No-Build alternative, have been presented in the FEIS. All three alternative alignments lie between US 290 and SH 249 in a west-east direction. Alternative Alignment A begins at US 290 and traverses mainly through the center of the study area. This alignment alternative terminates at SH 249, approximately 1.6 miles east of Willow Creek and is 12.7 miles in length. Alternative Alignment B starts at the same location as Alternative Alignment A but traverses mainly through the southern portion of the study area. Alternative Alignment B terminates at the same location of Alternative Alignment A, but is 12.1 miles in length. Alternative Alignment C starts at the western portion of the study area and traverses east mainly through the north-western portion of the study area. Alternative Alignment C terminates at the same location as Alternative Alignments A and B and is 12.7 miles in length.

The preferred corridor and transportation mode and the recommended alternative alignment as presented in the DEIS, were selected after careful consideration and assessment of the potential environmental impacts and evaluation of agency and public comments. After consideration of all agency and public comments received on the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) as well as updated environmental data, the Grand Parkway Association, in coordination with TxDOT and FHWA, selected a Preferred Alternative Alignment. It was determined after careful review of the DEIS comments that the Recommended Alternative Alignment as presented in the DEIS be carried forward as the Preferred Alternative Alignment. The preferred build alternative that has emerged from the study was proposed on the basis of its ability to best facilitate the project's Need and Purpose while minimizing impacts to the natural, physical, and social environments. The Preferred Build Alternative Alignment begins and terminates at the same location as Alternatives A and B, and is 12.03 miles in length. The preferred alternative alignment for Segment F-1 would require the acquisition of new ROW (616 acres), the adjustment of utility lines, and the filling of aquatic resources including jurisdictional wetlands (28.68 acres). The Preferred Alignment as presented in the FEIS would displace three residential properties. No business displacements would occur, and no archeological sites, historic properties, or endangered species are expected to be affected.

Copies of the FEIS and other information about the project may be obtained at the Texas Department of Transportation's Houston District Office at the previously mentioned address. For further information, please contact David Gornet at (713) 965-0871 or Pat Henry, P.E. at (713) 802-5241. Copies of the FEIS may also be reviewed at the offices of the Grand Parkway Association, located at 4544 Post Oak Place, Suite 222, Houston, Texas; at the Grand Parkway Association website, www.grandpky.com ; at the Houston Public Library, Central Branch, 500 McKinney, Houston, Texas; at the Harris County Public Library, Tomball Branch, 30555 Tomball Parkway, Tomball, Texas; and at the Harris County Public Library, Northwest Branch, 11355 Regency Green Drive, Cypress, Texas.
