Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) Forms - One of the requirements for obtaining a Corps of Engineers Section 404 permit is certification from the TCEQ that the permit will comply with state water quality standards. This requirement is authorized by Section 401 of the Federal Clean Water Act, and is therefore referred to as 401 certification.

Texas Rapid Assessment Method (TXRAM) Module and Templates

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Fort Worth District has finalized the Texas Rapid Assessment Method (TXRAM) originally published in 2011.  This final version, referred to as TXRAM 2.0 incorporates revisions made after four years of use and feedback from model users.  The use of TXRAM is not mandatory, but is highly recommended, as its use has served to increase the efficiency, consistency, and quality of impact assessment and mitigation calculation.  The use of TXRAM 2.0 will be sufficient in most regulatory situations.   Below is a link to the TXRAM Version 2.0.
