SECTION 356.56. Approval of Amendments

(a) If the district proposes to amend its plan for revisions of items other than the modeled available groundwater or desired future condition, the district shall submit a written copy of the proposed amendment to the executive administrator so that the executive administrator may determine whether the amendment requires approval.

(b) If the executive administrator determines that the amendment requires approval, the district shall submit all amendments to the management plan developed under §356.52 of this subchapter (relating to Required Content of Management Plan) to the executive administrator within 60 days of adoption of the amendment by the district's board. Amendments shall be submitted either in the form of an addendum to the management plan or as changes highlighted within the entire management plan.

(c) If the amendments address items required by Texas Water Code §36.1071, they should be in the form of an amended plan instead of an addendum to avoid confusion and preserve the integrity of the plan. Amendments must be submitted in accordance with §356.53 of this subchapter (relating to Plan Submission). Incorporation of newly developed desired future conditions and modeled available groundwater values must be adopted as an amendment.
