ADVISORY OPINIONS 10. Advisory Opinion Request No. AOR-727: May an incorporated out-of-state political committee that accepts corporate contributions contribute to Texas state and local candidates, including to a specific-purpose committee, provided it does so from a separate account that only accepts contributions from individuals and that would otherwise come from permissible sources under Texas law? Second, assuming the contributions described under the facts above are permissible, does it matter if the out-of-out state political committee is controlled by a non-candidate officeholder? Third, if control by a candidate leads to the conclusion that the out-of-state committee is prohibited from making the contributions described above, would it be permissible for the out-of-state committee to: (i) contribute to a Direct Campaign Expenditure Only Committee or (ii) make direct expenditures itself? This opinion construes Sections 252.001(15), 252.003(a), 253.032, 253.097, 254.1581, of the Election Code. 11.

Advisory Opinion Request No. AOR-733: Whether certain Public Service Announcements produced by a non-profit and featuring Texas state elected officials would trigger any campaign finance reporting requirements or require a political advertising disclosure statement. This opinion construes Chapter 254 of the Election Code. 14. Advisory Opinion Request No. AOR-734: Whether a current State Board of Education (SBOE) member can provide continuing professional development to educators in return for compensation during their SBOE service. This opinion construes Chapter 572 of the Government Code and Chapter 36 of the Penal Code. 15.

| Agenda: | PRELIMINARY HEARING ON PROPOSED HISTORIC USE PERMITS NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN to all interested persons in Hood, Montague, Parker, and Wise Counties, Texas: That the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Upper Trinity Groundwater Conservation District (“District”) will hold a preliminary public hearing to consider the applications for Historic Use Permits and the proposed Historic Use Permits prepared by the General Manager in response to those applications that are listed in this notice, and to accept public comment and any requests for contested case hearings related to those applications and proposed permits. District Rule F.3 authorizes the District General Manager to process technical reviews and schedule applications for Historic Use Permits for hearing by groups of applications. If an application for a proposed Historic Use Permit is uncontested, the Board may make a decision on the proposed Historic Use Permit at the hearing. Historic Use Permits approved by the Board will authorize the permit holder to pump a specific amount of groundwater each year from a well or well system for a specific purpose of use in compliance with the District’s Rules based on the applicant’s maximum past pumping and beneficial use without waste in a single year during the existing and historic use period, as explained in detail in the District’s Rules. In accordance with District Rule 2.8, the General Manager has conducted an initial review for administrative completeness of each application for a Historic Use Permit listed in this notice and has determined that each application is administratively complete. The General Manager has also completed a technical review of each application for a Historic Use Permit listed in this notice and has prepared a recommendation for Board action on each application in accordance with the applicable criteria set forth in District Rule F.3(a), including the General Manager’s recommendation for each application’s amount of Maximum Historic Use. The General Manager’s recommendation on each application has been incorporated into a proposed Historic Use Permit and provided to each applicant by regular mail, along with an advisory on how to protest the recommendation, and notice of the date, time, and place of the preliminary hearing. The General Manager recommends that the Board approve each listed permit as proposed at the September 18, 2025, preliminary hearing. If the Board disagrees with a proposed permit, the applicant and General Manager shall be given an opportunity to present additional argument and evidence to address the Board’s concerns. The Board may continue the hearing to grant additional time to the applicant to file supplemental evidence with the District. Persons wanting to request a contested case hearing on a Historic Use Permit application or proposed permit listed in this notice must submit a written request for a contested case hearing that is received by the District on or before the date of the preliminary hearing as it appears on this notice, as well as before Board action on the application. Such written requests for a contested case hearing must contain the information required in District Rule E.6(d). A separate contested case hearing request must be submitted for each permit application or proposed permit for which a person desires a contested case hearing. Persons seeking a contested case hearing should participate in the hearing. Additional requirements for requesting a contested case hearing on an application may be found in Appendix E, Rule E.6, of the District Rules: https://uppertrinitygcd.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/UTGCD-RULES.pdf The preliminary hearing will be held on Thursday, September 18, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. and will be conducted at the District Office located at 1859 W HWY 199 in Springtown, TX. The District Board of Directors will also hold a regular Board meeting at the same time and place as the preliminary hearing on the applications for a Historic Use Permit. The regular Board meeting will have a separate notice and agenda. Questions or requests for additional information, including copies of a permit application or proposed permit being considered by the Board, should be directed to the District’s General Manager, Doug Shaw, by phone at (817) 523-5200, by email at doug@uppertrinitygcd.com, or by mail at P.O.

Contested case hearing requests and written comments must be emailed or mailed to the General Manager at the same email address and mailing address, or by delivering the request to the District office at 1859 West Highway 199, Springtown, Texas 76082. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Notice of this hearing has been provided to any person who has requested such notice as required by the District Rules.
