Notice of Application to Amend Certificated Service Area
Boundaries
Notice is given to the public of the filing with the Public Utility Com-
mission of Texas of an application filed on August 15, 2012, for an
amendment to certificated service area boundaries within Montgomery
County, Texas.
Docket Style and Number: Joint Application of CenterPoint Energy
Houston Electric, LLC (CenterPoint Energy) and Entergy Texas, Inc.
(ETI) to amend Certificate of Convenience and Necessity Service Area
Boundaries within Montgomery County. Docket Number 40652.
The Application: The proposed transfer of service area boundaries ap-
plies to three tracts of land that consists of approximately 15.5, 88.0,
and 35.0 acres. The proposed amendments would alter the official
boundary lines to be consistent with the actual services being provided
to the existing customers. Applicants stated that the transfer will not

boundary would reflect the utility currently serving the area. Both Cen-
terPoint Energy and ETI have agreed to the proposed amendment.

Request for Proposals
INTRODUCTION
This request for proposals (RFP) provides instructions and guidance
for applicants seeking funding from the Texas State Soil and Water
Conservation Board (TSSWCB) under the Clean Water Act (CWA)
319(h) Nonpoint Source (NPS) Grant Program. The U.S. Envi-
ronmental Protection Agency (EPA) distributes funds appropriated
by Congress annually to the TSSWCB under the authorization of
CWA 319(h). TSSWCB then administers/awards these federal
funds as grants to cooperating entities for activities that address the
goals, objectives, and priorities stated in the Texas NPS Management
Program. The Texas NPS Management Program is the State's com-
prehensive strategy to protect and restore water quality in waterbodies
impacted by NPS water pollution. This document can be accessed
online at http://www.tsswcb.texas.gov/files/docs/nps-3 19/npsmgmt-
plans/2012mgmtprogram.pdf.
The types of agricultural and silvicultural NPS pollution prevention
and abatement activities that can be funded with 319(h) grants in-
clude the following: implementation of nine-element watershed pro-
tection plans (WPPs) and the agricultural and silvicultural NPS por-
tion of Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Implementation Plans
(I-Plans), surface water quality monitoring, data analysis and model-
ing, demonstration of innovative best management practices (BMPs),
technical assistance to landowners for conservation planning, public
outreach/education, development of nine-element WPPs including the
formation and facilitation of stakeholder groups, and monitoring ac-
tivities to determine the effectiveness of specific pollution prevention
methods. Strictly research activities are not eligible for 319(h) grant
funding.
The TSSWCB is requesting proposals for watershed assessment, plan-
ning, implementation, demonstration and education projects within the
boundaries of impaired or threatened watersheds as well as projects in
unimpaired watersheds. The 2010 Texas Integrated Report describes
the water quality conditions for waterbodies in the state. All proposals
must focus on the restoration and protection of water quality consistentINADDITION August 31, 2012 37 TexReg 7003
