Abstract | Most significant activities which occur in the Galveston Bay system will have some federal involvement (e.g., dredging, highway construction, and channelization). These activities have the potential to conflict with the goals and policies of the Galveston Bay Plan, a Comprehensive and Management Plan (CCMP) developed under the Water Quality Act of 1987 by the Galveston Bay National Estuary Program (GBNEP). Conversely, federal activities also have the potential to enhance beneficial bay management activities identified in The Galveston Bay Plan. Section 320 of the Water Quality Act provides National Estuary Programs (NEPs) with authority and responsibility to conduct 'consistency' reviews of the federal assistance projects and direct federal actions in Estuaries of National Significance. |
