Emergency Quarantine - Cotton Jassid

The Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) adopts the establishment of an emergency quarantine pursuant to Texas Agriculture Code, Chapter 71, Subchapter A, Section 71.004, which authorizes the TDA to establish an emergency quarantine without notice and public hearing when a public emergency exists involving the likelihood of introduction or dissemination of a dangerous insect pest threatening horticulture and agriculture in the state. Earlier an emergency quarantine was filed on October 3, 2025, which expired on February 2, 2026. This emergency quarantine filing is required due to the effectiveness in restricting the spread of the two-spotted cotton leafhopper (also known as cotton jassid), Amrasca biguttula, to cotton fields and nurseries in Texas. Additional time is required for evaluating the effectiveness of integrated management practices to achieve an appropriate level of protection from A. biguttula risk to the state's cotton and nursery industries.

This invasive pest poses an imminent threat to Texas cotton production, a critical agricultural sector valued at over $1.5 billion annually, due to its rapid reproduction and potential for "hopperburn" damage leading to yield losses up to 50% in infested fields. Additionally, the threat extends to other crops including ornamental and garden plants.

The department believes it is necessary to take an immediate timely action to prevent the artificial spread of two-spotted leafhopper to better plan and understand the pest dynamics and effects during the upcoming spring planting season. The establishment of this emergency quarantine on a temporary basis is both necessary and appropriate in order to effectively contain, combat and manage the infestations of two-spotted leafhopper. The Texas nursery floral and cotton industry producers' chances of becoming infested increase significantly without this emergency quarantine action. Once infested, producers would have to bear the treatment expenses to ship regulated articles to non-infested areas of Texas and other states.

Effective Date: This quarantine takes effect immediately upon issuance on February 5, 2026 and remains in force until rescinded or modified by TDA following assessment of pest distribution and control measures.

Pest Description:

The two-spotted cotton leafhopper (Amrasca biguttula) is a small (3-4 mm), pale green insect with yellowish-green wings marked by two distinct black spots on the head and forewings (spots may fade in older adults). Nymphs are wingless, pale green, and highly mobile. Adults and nymphs feed on plant sap from the undersides of leaves, injecting toxins that cause "hopperburn" - initial yellowing at leaf tips and margins, upward curling/cupping of leaves, followed by rapid reddening, browning, and necrosis. Severe infestations lead to defoliation, stunted growth, and reduced boll set in cotton, mimicking nutrient deficiencies or spider mite damage. The pest has multiple generations per year (up to 20-30 in warm climates), with eggs laid in leaf tissues and a life cycle of 7-14 days under Texas summer conditions.

Regulated Articles: All living hostable field crops and nursery plants capable of disseminating the two-spotted cotton leafhopper are regulated.

Quarantined Areas: All counties in Texas with confirmed detections of the two-spotted cotton leafhopper as of September 1, 2025, based on current inspections and surveys. TDA will maintain an updated list of quarantined areas on the TDA Plant Quality website (texasagriculture.gov/Regulatory-Programs/Plant-Quality/Quarantines).

Movement into Texas from infested areas outside the state: Southeastern states including states of Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, South Carolina, and North Carolina is prohibited unless the following conditions for movement are met.

Conditions for Movement:

Certification: Accompanied by a phytosanitary document (certificate, permit or a compliance agreement) issued by an authorized official from the state/country of origin, confirming the articles are free of the pest based on inspection and treatment. The phytosanitary document must include origin, destination, commodity, treatment and pest-free declaration.

Treatment: Articles must be treated in accordance with TDA-approved methods or USDA approved treatments for leafhoppers, such as insecticidal dip or spray using EPA-registered products effective against leafhoppers.

Exemption: Shipments for scientific, research, or immediate processing purposes may be allowed with prior TDA and/or USDA approval and under containment protocols.

Movement violations are subject to Texas Agriculture Code penalties, including fines up to $4,000 per violation, seizure, destruction of articles at owner's expense, and potential criminal charges.

CMP Project No: 26-1081-F2

Federal License and Permit Activities:

Applicant: Port of Corpus Christi Authority

Location: The project would affect waters of the United States and navigable waters of the United States associated with Nueces Bay and the Rincon Channel and is located Nueces Bay in Rincon Industrial Park (RIP), Corpus Christi, Nueces County, Texas.

Latitude and Longitude: 27.829279, -97.390819

Project Description: The overall purpose is bank stabilization and maintenance dredging of existing commercial canals. The applicant requests authorization to install approximately 12,260 linear feet (LF) of sheet pile bulkhead, including 4,223 LF of bulkhead, to refortify existing concrete bulkhead in Rincon Canal A. The remaining 8,037 LF of sheet pile bulkhead would be installed to stabilize the remaining stretches on RIP, particularly along Rincon Canals E & B. Improving the existing bulkhead located at Rincon Canal A would require approximately 22,288 cubic yards (CY) of clean cementitious fill. In addition, approximately 222,425 CY of clean aggregate fill would be placed as backfill behind the remaining bulkhead. In addition, approximately 963,568 CY of material would be dredged by hydraulic and/or silt blading means from Rincon Canals A, B, & E to an overall maximum depth of -22.5 mean lower low water (MLLW; -16.5 feet + 4.0 feet advanced maintenance + 2.0 feet allowable over depth). Dredged material resulting from this activity would be placed either within previously authorized (i.e., SWG-1995-02249, SWG-2007-01897) dredged material placement areas (DMPAs) or beneficial use sites, as well as additional active DMPAs. The designated DMPAs are privately held and/or federally regulated and located in existing uplands. The final placement sites would be determined based on available capacity and the quality of materials.

Sheet pile bulkhead installation would be performed from the water utilizing marine construction barges and barge mounted equipment. Steel piles would be installed utilizing either impact and/or vibratory hammer methods. The total discharge of fill below the high tide line (HTL) resulting from the sheet pile bulkhead installation is 38,137 CY. Cementitious fill is required between the proposed sheet pile bulkhead and existing concrete bulkhead along the eastern Rincon Canal (i.e., Canal A). By driving a sleeve casing, the cementitious fill would be placed along the same extent, totaling approximately 0.48 acre (21,115 square feet). The casing material would be removed once cementitious fill placement activities are completed. The maximum total discharge of fill below the HTL resulting from the construction activity is 22,288 CY. Along Canal B & E, steel back rods with concrete anchor walls would be installed behind the sheet pile bulkhead and subsequently backfilled with clean aggregate fill material. The clean aggregate fill template encompasses an approximate 26.46-acre area, and approximately 222,425 CY of aggregate fill material would be required to backfill these portions of the sheet pile bulkhead to a finished grade elevation of +6.0 feet MLLW. Of the 222,425 CY of total fill, approximately 203,074 CY will occur below the HTL. These work activities would be performed from land.

Anticipated permanent impacts to Waters of the U.S. associated with this project total 97.13 acres, including 0.70 acre to seagrass, 1.19 acres to live oyster, 0.10 acre to unvegetated shoreline, and 95.14 acres of impact to open water (i.e., unconsolidated bottom). The contractor would follow industry standard practices and utilize any necessary best management practices such as silt screens and/or turbidity curtains for in-water construction activities. Uplands and existing laydown facilities within RIP would be utilized as staging areas, as necessary, for equipment, materials, and/or vehicles necessary for the project.

The proposed project includes the following activities:

- Installation of 12,260 LF of sheet pile bulkhead resulting in 38,137 CY of fill below the HTL. The total amount of sheet pile fill per LF is 3.1 CY/LF.

- Sheet pile bulkhead would be driven to a depth of 45 feet below the mudline and have a top elevation of +6.0 feet MLLW to match the existing concrete bulkhead along Rincon Canal A.

- Placement of cementitious fill within an approximately 0.48-acre (21,115 square foot) area, resulting in a total of 22,288 CY of clean cementitious fill below the HTL. Cementitious fill would be driven from top of bulkhead elevation (+6.0 feet MLLW) to a depth of -22.5 feet MLLW.

- Placement of clean aggregate fill within an approximately 26.46-acre area, resulting in a total of 222,425 CY of aggregate fill material to subsequently backfill behind the proposed sheet pile bulkhead to a finished grade of +6.0 feet MLLW. A total of 203,074 CY of aggregate fill would occur below the HTL, while 19,351 CY would be placed in uplands.

- Dredging of Rincon Canals A, B, & E to a depth of -22.5 feet MLLW (-16.5 feet + 4.0 feet advanced maintenance + 2.0 feet allowable over depth). Side slopes on Rincon Canal A would occur at 3H:1V while canals B & E will be box cut. Dredging activities would result in a total of approximately 963,568 CY of dredged material via hydraulic and/or silt blading methods.

The applicant offered the following compensatory mitigation plan to offset unavoidable functional loss to the aquatic environment: A mitigation plan has not yet been developed; however, a compensatory mitigation plan will be coordinated and submitted to the Corps and the Corps Project

Manager prior to permit issuance. Specifically, the PCCA will develop an appropriate permittee-responsible mitigation plan to fully compensate or offset for permanent impacts to special aquatic sites (SAS) resulting from the proposed project including 0.70-acres of impact to submerged aquatic vegetation (i.e., seagrass) and 1.19-acres to oyster reef habitat. If determined viable, the applicant will coordinate with Texas Parks and Wildlife Department to develop an aquatic resource relocation plan to avoid permanently impacting 1.19-acres of oyster reef. Accordingly, this would reduce overall permanent SAS impacts and would be the preferred approach to compensate for oyster impacts. If this option is not selected, PCCA proposes a 3:1 compensatory mitigation ratio for seagrass impacts and a 1:1 compensatory mitigation ratio for impacts to oyster reef. Based on these ratios, the project will provide 2.10 acres of seagrass creation and 1.19 acres of oyster reef creation as compensatory mitigation for unavoidable permanent impacts to SAS.

Type of Application: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers permit application # SWG-1995-02249. This application will be reviewed pursuant Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Note: The consistency review for this project may be conducted by Texas Commission on Environmental Quality as part of its certification under §401 of the Clean Water Act.

CMP Project No: 26-1075-F1

Applicant: Offatt's Estate LLC

Location: The project would affect waters of the United States associated with Offatt's Bayou. The project/review area is located at State Tax Parcel ID 115017, south of Airway Lane and east of Travel Air Road, Galveston, Galveston County, Texas.

Latitude and Longitude: 29.2708636, -94.8739278

Project Description: To construct a 32-lot residential development to accommodate the growing population on Galveston Island. The applicant requests authorization to discharge 1,815 cubic yards of clean earthen fill material into 2.25 acres of wetlands for the construction of a residential community. Project components include the discharge of fill material into 1.68 acres of palustrine emergent (PEM) wetlands and 0.58-acre of estuarine emergent (EEM) wetlands. Site development includes the creation of 32 lots and the placement of an access road totaling 19 acres on the 27-acre parcel. The remaining acres within the project boundary will be avoided and set aside as nature preserve areas.

The applicant offered the following compensatory mitigation plan to offset unavoidable functional loss to the aquatic environment: The applicant has stated that they intend to purchase either in kind from the secondary service area or out-of-kind compensatory mitigation credits from a primary service mitigation bank for all unavoidable impacts.

Type of Application: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers permit application # SWG-2025-00463. This application will be reviewed pursuant Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Note: The consistency review for this project may be conducted by Texas Commission on Environmental Quality as part of its certification under §401 of the Clean Water Act.

Correction of Error

The Texas Department of Insurance published adopted amendments to 28 TAC §21.5010 in the February 13, 2026, issue of the Texas Register (51 TexReg 900). Due to an error as submitted by the agency, a validly submitted comment in support of the proposal with changes was inadvertently omitted from the order. The corrected list of commenters and the comment and response follow. Underlined text indicates what was omitted from the original publication.

Commenters: TDI received comments from five commenters. One commenter spoke at the public hearing. The four others submitted written comments. Commenters in support of the proposal were Texas Association of Health Plans and Texas EMS Alliance. Commenters in support of the proposal with changes were Texas College of Emergency Physicians, Texas Medical Association, and Texas Hospital Association.

Comment. The commenter expresses its support for the proposed amendments to §21.5010, stating that it is consistent with its understanding that a full denial is not subject to mediation and provides clarity regarding zero-dollar payments. The commenter also suggests that TDI consider additional clarifications regarding other zero-dollar payment situations that may be subject to mediation and, if TDI decides to revise the rule in response to this comment, the commenter requests that TDI withdraw the proposed rule and republish for additional stakeholder input.

Agency Response. TDI thanks the commenter for its support but declines to make any changes. Under §21.5010(a)(1), a qualified mediation claim is one where there is an amount billed by the provider and unpaid by the health benefit plan issuer or administrator after copayments, deductibles, and coinsurance, for which an enrollee may not be billed. This is consistent with Insurance Code §1467.051(a)(1). Under §21.5010(c), Division 2 does not require a health benefit plan issuer or administrator to pay for an uncovered service or supply. Mediations are not meant for determining questions of coverage or other issues in dispute other than disputes over out-of-network provider charges, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties.

Statewide Transportation Improvement Program - February 2026 Revision

The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) will hold a public hearing virtually (conducted electronically) on Tuesday, March 10, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. to receive comments on the proposed February 2026 Revision to the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) for FY 2025-2028.

Access to hearing:

Instructions for joining the hearing will be posted on TxDOT's website at: https://www.txdot.gov/inside-txdot/get-involved/about/hearings-meetings.html.

STIP Overview:

The STIP identifies federally funded transportation projects included in the FY 2025-2028 Transportation Improvement Programs (TIPs) for each Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) in Texas. It also includes state and federally funded projects in nonattainment areas--Dallas-Fort Worth, El Paso, Houston, and San Antonio--as well as federally funded projects in rural areas outside MPO boundaries and other statewide programs.

Federal law (Title 23 USC §§134 and 135) requires MPOs and states to develop TIPs and STIPs to secure federal transportation funding. These plans must be developed in cooperation with MPOs, transit operators, and local officials, and must include opportunities for public participation and approval by the Governor or designee.

A copy of the proposed February 2026 Revision to the FY 2025-2028 STIP will be available for review when this notice is published at: https://www.txdot.gov/inside-txdot/division/transportation-planning/stips.html.

Individuals wishing to speak must register in advance by contacting Enyu Li, Transportation Planning and Programming Division, at (512) 416-2298 no later than 12:00 p.m. on Monday, March 9, 2026. Registered speakers will be called in order and limited to three minutes. Those who do not register will speak after all registered participants. Comments and testimony are welcome; however, questioning of witnesses will be limited to the presiding authority to ensure a complete record. The presiding authority may restrict testimony for time or repetitive content. Groups or organizations should designate one representative. Speakers are asked to avoid repeating previously presented testimony.

Accommodation:

The hearing will be conducted in English. Individuals needing special accommodation should contact Transportation Planning and Programming Division at (512) 416-2298 at least three business days before the hearing. TxDOT will make every reasonable effort to accommodate requests.
