Abstract
The 64th Legislature in 1975 continued to refine and improve the capability to understand and manage our coastal resources. Importance of adequate fresh water supplies to maintain productivity of estuarine areas is for the first time a part of our system of water laws. The mechanism for dealing with the complex land subsidence problems od the upper coast now exists. An improved energy situation for Texans should result from attention to energy planning and development matters. Immediate response to an oil spill or similar incident is now possible.
