The Nueces Estuary Advisory Council (NEAC) was created by an
Agreed Order (PDF) issued by the Texas Water Commission on
March 9, 1992. The council assists the commission to monitor the
implementation of provisions in the Agreed Order and makes
recommendations to the commission on changes, as needed, to those
provisions.
About the Advisory Council
The NEAC meets as needed, but at least once every calendar year.
The group is charged with assessing the effectiveness of the water
management strategies and operating guidelines for reservoir
systems that are contained in the Agreed Order, and with
recommending changes to the Agreed Order as needed to the Executive
Director of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.
Members of the NEAC represent state resource management
agencies; local governments; water right permit holders; academic
institutions; business coalitions; environmental and conservation
groups; wholesale water suppliers; commercial and recreational
fishing interests; Lake Corpus Christi/Choke Canyon Reservoir
interests; and private citizens.
