STRATEGY DESCRIPTION AND JUSTIFICATION:
Through this strategy, the TCEQ issues permits and other authorizations relating to the quality and use of the state's water resources.
Wastewater permits are issued to municipalities, industries, and concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) under the provisions of Chapters 5, 26, and 32 of the Texas Water
Code (TWC). Storm water discharges are permitted through general and individual permits under TWC Chapters 5 and 26. Also issued under TWC Chapters 5 and 26 are
registrations for land application of domestic septage and water treatment plant sludge and permits for the beneficial use, processing and disposal of sewage sludge. The
wastewater permitting process involves assessment of the available technology to treat wastewater to reduce pollutants, groundwater assessment, and the assurance that surface
water quality standards are being met.
Under TWC Chapter 11, the TCEQ also administers water rights for surface water, that involves the issuance and amendment of surface water use permits, evaluation of water
availability, conservation and drought contingency plans, and potential environmental impacts of the proposed diversion of state water from a stream or other water body.
