Welcome & Agenda Review Quick Updates: By Laws revised and added to project website: shoalcreekconservancy.org/watershedplan Comments received on Watershed Characterization Report, next draft Jan. 30 Next meeting on Jan. 30 from 9:30 to 11 a.m (location downtown TBD) Today: Facilitated goal discussion Organizational Meeting of Working Groups

April July 9 Recap & Goal Statement Reminder Shoal Creek is a model healthy and resilient urban watershed that benefits people and nature and is supported by a well-informed and engaged community.

Watershed Plan - Manage Pollutants Shoal Creek plan needs to meet State contact recreation standards Currently does not Shoal Creek water quality is better than state screening levels for these pollutants Total nitrogen – Currently higher than Bull Creek Total phosphorus – levels comparable to Bull Creek Total suspended solids – levels comparable to Bull Creek

Watershed Comparison

Watershed Comparisons Watershed Type Imp Cover (%) EII Score out of 100 Water Quality Developed Area Treated Shoal Urban 54 58 Fair Minimal Williamson Suburban 34 66 Good Moderate Bull 21 80 Very Good Most EII - Environmental Integrity Index (water quality, sediment, contact recreation, non-contact recreation, physical integrity, aquatic life, benthics, diatoms)

Shoal Creek Water Quality – Environmental Integrity Index

Shoal Creek EII 2015 EII scores added to the summary

Water Goals? Summary from July 9 Achieve contact recreation standards per TCEQ Promote baseflow enhancement Reduce herbicides, nutrients, pesticides Enhance riparian health Support City flood mitigation efforts Consistently achieve “Good” water quality within 20 years per EII Adaptive management

Potential Management Measures Education and outreach, combined COA and SCC effort Bacteria management, Scoop the Poop, signage, etc. Investigate retrofit of existing regional detention basins Baseflow enhancement? Coordinate with City on water quality projects Land Development Code Revisions Expand creekside grow zone program Operations and maintenance Street sweeping, etc.

Implementation Concepts New development will comply with the City’s WQ Ordinance City of Austin capital projects (retrofits and creek erosion mgmt) City of Austin drainage fee reduction incentives Modified Land Development Code – redevelopment to manage runoff to “greenfield” condition? Flood planning process Private public partnerships Foundations/grants
