*PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO O&M GRANT PROGRAM RULES*
The State Board adopted rules for the O&M Grant Program on September 17,
2009. In order to make references between the adopted O&M program rules
and the newly proposed structural repair program rules clear and more
understandable, agency staff recommended the State Board propose minor
changes to the O&M program rules. Included in these proposed changes
are a few typographical corrections, amendments to language to improve
clarity of existing intent, and one substantive change relating to the
addition of one definition. Staff recommended the definition of
operation and maintenance (O&M) be expanded to include minor maintenance
of roads within an easement used in gaining access to a flood control
dam for the purpose of performing O&M. The expanded definition
stipulates that such maintenance of roads would not be reimbursed by the
State Board, but may be considered as an in-kind contribution of match.
The State Board approved these proposed amendments to be published in
the Texas Register for a 30-day public comment period. The proposed
rules were published in the January 1, 2010 edition of the Texas
Register, and the comment period will extend through the end of the
month. The proposed rules, which are attached to this message in
electronic PDF format, may be accessed directly from the Secretary of
State at:
