Notice of Request for Public Comment and Notice of a Public Meeting on Draft 2027 Texas Nonpoint Source Management Program
Aviso de Solicitud de Comentarios Públicos y Aviso de Reunión Pública Sobre el Borrador Del Programa de Gestión de Fuentes No Puntuales de Texas De 2027
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has made available for public comment the draft 2027 Texas Nonpoint Source Management Program.
The purpose of the meeting is to provide the public an opportunity to comment on the draft 2027 Texas Nonpoint Source Management Program.
The Texas Nonpoint Source Management Program (Management Program) is the State of Texas's comprehensive strategy to protect and restore water quality in waterbodies impacted by nonpoint sources of water pollution. The Management Program is required under federal Clean Water Act (CWA), §319(b). The Management Program is jointly administered by TCEQ and the Texas State Soil and Water Conservation Board (TSSWCB). The state must have a federally approved Management Program in order to continue receiving federal CWA §319(h) grant monies from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The Management Program is updated and revised every five years, and the current version covers 2022-2027. TCEQ and TSSWCB request your review of and comments on the draft 2027 Management Program, which covers 2027-2032.
This draft document has been jointly developed by TCEQ and TSSWCB consistent with regulatory guidance to satisfy requirements of the federal CWA. The document incorporates EPA's eight components of an effective program; establishes long- and short-term goals for the program; provides for the coordination of nonpoint source-related programs and activities conducted by federal, state, regional, and local entities; and prioritizes assessment, planning, and implementation activities in priority watersheds.
After the public meeting and comment period, TCEQ and TSSWCB will address comments received and, if necessary, incorporate them into a final Management Program document that will be submitted to the TCEQ commissioners and TSSWCB board members for approval. Once the document is approved by both agencies, it will be submitted to EPA for approval.
Public Meeting and Testimony. The public meeting for the draft document will be a hybrid meeting on July 15, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. The in-person portion will be held at TCEQ Building F, Room 2210, 12100 Park 35 Circle, Austin, Texas 78753. To join the Microsoft Teams video conference, follow the Microsoft Teams link (teams.microsoft.com/meet/265615676008826?p=d1Ik2H36g11AQTEdNy).
Please periodically check the TCEQ Nonpoint Source Management Plan website (tceq.texas.gov/waterquality/nonpoint-source/mgmt-plan) before the meeting date for related updates.
During this meeting, individuals will have the opportunity to present oral statements. An agency staff member will give a brief presentation at the start of the meeting and will be available to answer questions before and after all public comments have been received.
Written Comments. Please choose one of the methods provided to submit your written comments. Written comments on the draft Texas Nonpoint Source Management Program may be submitted to Faith Hambleton, Water Quality Planning Division, Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, MC 203, P.O. Box 13087, Austin, Texas 78711-3087; or eFaxed to (512) 239-1414. Electronic comments may be submitted at the TCEQ Comment Input website (tceq.commentinput.com).

Amendment to Waiver Application for the Medically Dependent Children Program (MDCP)
The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) is submitting a request to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to amend the waiver application for the Medically Dependent Children Program (MDCP). HHSC administers the MDCP waiver under the authority of Section 1915(c) of the Social Security Act. The proposed effective date for this amendment is December 1, 2026, during waiver year 5 (9/1/2026 through 8/31/2027).
The amendment proposes changes to:
Appendix B
HHSC is proposing to add diversion slots to avoid nursing facility stay, as a reserved waiver capacity group for waiver year 5 (9/1/2026 through 8/31/2027) as this is the waiver year impacted by this amendment. Waiver years 1 through 4 are prior to the effective date of this amendment and were not updated.
This reserved waiver capacity group is for eligible medically fragile individuals up to 20 years old who will be able to enroll in the waiver before reaching the top of the interest list and without requiring admission to a nursing facility. These diversion slots are an estimated number based on currently allocated funding and prior utilization.
Appendix I
HHSC is proposing to update existing language regarding Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) policies. HHSC is proposing adding language that clarifies the EVV policies regarding approved clock in and clock out methods and what in home EVV services are in MDCP.
MDCP Program Overview
The MDCP waiver provides home and community-based services to medically fragile individuals from birth through age 20 who, without the waiver program, would require institutionalization in a nursing facility. Services in the MDCP waiver include adaptive aids, employment assistance, financial management services, flexible family support services, minor home modifications, respite, supported employment, and transition assistance services. Texas uses the MDCP waiver to provide services to Texans in the least restrictive environment possible. These environments include the individual's or a family member's home, or a Child Protective Services foster care home which can meet the individual's complex medical needs.

A copy of the proposed waiver amendment request may also be obtained online on the HHSC website at:

Comments about the proposed waiver amendment must be submitted to HHSC by August 3, 2026.

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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
On March 22, 2014, bulk carrier M/V Summer Wind and oil tank-barge Kirby 27706 collided in Galveston Bay near Texas City, Texas. The collision punctured the #2 starboard tank of Kirby 27706, discharging approximately 168,000 gallons of Intermediate Fuel Oil (IFO-380) into the Houston Ship Channel, Galveston Bay, and state and federal waters. Kirby Inland Marine, L.P. (Kirby) was identified as the Responsible Party.
The Trustees, consisting of TPWD, TCEQ, GLO, USFWS, NPS, and NOAA, conducted a Natural Resources Damage Assessment in cooperation with the Responsible Party, Kirby. The Trustees determined that the Incident, including response and cleanup efforts, caused injury to wildlife, including benthic organisms, fish, birds, and marine mammals; and resulted in injuries to recreational services, including lost opportunities for the public to visit and enjoy shoreline and open water areas.
On January 20, 2020, the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas entered a Consent Decree resolving the Trustees' claims for injuries to natural resources resulting from the Incident. Kirby agreed to pay $15,300,000.00 in damages and assessment costs to resolve federal and state claims for injuries to natural resources and services resulting from the Incident and to provide for the Trustees' costs to oversee, implement, and monitor the restoration of natural resources.
This Draft DARP/EA was prepared jointly by the Trustees to inform the public of the Trustees' authorities and responsibilities under OPA and NEPA (83 Stat. 852; 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.); to provide information on the restoration alternatives considered; and to describe the methods used to select the preferred restoration actions that would be implemented to restore, replace, or acquire the resources or services equivalent to those lost. The Trustees invite the public to comment on the Draft DARP/EA.
