Management of the coastal zone.(Texas General Land Office., 1974) Texas General Land Office.;The proposed development of a coastal zone management program for Texas has arisen from the growing awareness that current coastal problems are becoming increasingly complex due to conflicts over use of our finite coastal environment. The state's goal is to achieve a balance between environmental quality and economic development in the coastal zone. The purpose of this proposal is to obtain needed funds to assist in the development of a management process by which this balance can be achieved. Bob Armstrong, Commissioner of the General Land Office, has been designated by the Governor to prepare the state's management program application and to receive its development grant. A number of Texas agencies--federal, state, regional, and local-- and other appropriate entities will assist in development of the management program. Public participation in the formulation of the program is essential to public and legislative approval of the program. The state's work plan for management program development embodies a planning process which, by operating within the framework of requirements specified by NOAA for federal assistance, will accomplish four objectives: (1) the delineation of boundaries of the Texas coastal zone; (2) the articulation of meaningful state goals for use of the coastal zone; (3) the design of a viable permanent management mechanism; and (4) the formulation of the planning process and the proposed management mechanism. At the end of the three-year development program in June, 1977, Texas should have the basic tools, structure, and needed legislation to implement a management program which reflects the reasonable wishes of the people of Texas within the environmental, socio-economic and political framework of the Texas coastal zone.Item Authority of Texas state agencies for oil spill prevention and response.(Texas General Land Office., 1979) Texas General Land Office.;No abstract availableItem Galveston County(Texas General Land Office, 1989) Texas General Land Office.;This map depicts property titles dating back to the early 1800's.Item Harris County.(Texas General Land Office., 1940) Texas General Land Office.;This map depicts property titles dating back to the early 1800's.Item A methodology to assess social/infrastructural impacts: activity assessment routine, social and economic component(Texas General Land Office., 1978) Texas General Land Office.;No abstract availableItem State-owned submerged lands on the Texas Gulf Coast.(Texas, General Land Office, n.d.)

The program's objective is to develop and recommend to the Legislature and the public an improved process for decision-making affecting allocation of coastal resources, and to propose steps for implementing this process. Present resource uses and the constraints and opportunities for more effective protection and use of those resources must be determined; alternative uses and use priorities in terms of existing law and policy must be examined; and organizational changes necessary to effect the alternative resource development and use policies must be evaluated. Projected demands on coastal resources in relation to the resource base's capability to sustain those demands are under study on several fronts. Governmental entities with responsibility for regulation, protection, and planning in the coastal region have been identified. Public participation in gathering information and making suggestions will be integral throughout all stages of the developmental process and is being solicited through hearings, workshops, and mailings. In addition, the Commissioner of the General Land Office has appointed a citizens' advisory committee to work with the staff to assure full public involvement in program development.Item Texas coastal management program.(Texas General Land Office., 1978) Texas General Land Office.;This document contains a description of the entire Texas Coastal Management Program (TCMP). This summary consists of four parts: (1) management approach, (2) elements of the program, (3) policy areas addressed by the management program, and (4) objectives of implementing the program.Item The Texas coastal management program. An annotated bibliography of research activities in the coastal zone.(Texas General Land Office., 1974) Texas General Land Office.;This bibliography is an inventory of current and recent research on topics important to management of the Texas coastal zone. Its purpose is to provide the Coastal Zone Management staff with a basis for determining additional research needs. Only those research efforts completed or initiated after December, 1968 were considered. This date was selected, because a comprehensive bibliography, Dr. Clare A. Gunn's Texas Gulf Coast, covers most research conducted in the Texas coastal zone before 1969.Item Texas Coastal Management Program. Present authority(Texas General Land Office, January 1975) Texas General Land Office.;The following report was prepared during the summer of 1974 in order to partially catalog the status of Texas' current efforts to understand and resolve its costal problems. It was designed and executed to provide a point of departure for staff and other interested individuals in assessing the scope, magnitude, and complexity of the task of coastal management.
