a. Mr. Scott Jones, Director of Advocacy for the Galveston :Bay- Foundation, will
present a report named How healthy is Galveston Bay?
Mr. Scott Jones, Director of Advocacy for the Galveston Bay Foundation, presented Council
with a report regarding How Healthy is Galveston Bay? He stated that the; Galveston Bay
Foundation is working on a new Galveston Bay Report Card, scheduled to be released in May
2015, which will be a citizen- driven, scientific analysis of the health of the bay. Mr. Jones stated
that Galveston Bay is the largest Bay in Texas, the 7th largest in the Nation, and the 2nd most
productive Bay in the U.S. He stated that approximately half of Texas population lives within the
Galveston Bay watershed. Mr. Jones stated that the report will reflect the monitoring of the
physical processes which include the sea -level rise, storm surge, freshwater inflows, and
dredging. He stated that the report will reflect the monitoring of the water and sediment quality
which includes bacteria levels, nutrient inputs from land, water clarity. and toxics. During further
discussion, Council Member Capetillo inquired as to who would be responsible for monitoring
the bacteria levels. In response to Council Member Capetillo's inquiry, Mr. Jones stated that the
Texas Department of State Health Services will monitor the seafood and Texas Commission of
Environmental Quality will look at the sediments and a lot of the water perimeters. Mr. Jones
stated that there are a variety of agencies that will monitor different areas of the Bay and that the
timeframe of monitoring would depend on the perimeter. He stated that some of the perimeters
are very expensive to monitor partially due to the amount of sampling. During further discussion,
Mr. Jones stated that they will discuss the habitats and land use which includes the wetlands,
seagrass, oyster reefs, and impervious surface (parking lots, roads, etc.). He stated that they will
be looking into living resources which includes fish populations, commercial and recreational
fishing catch, colonial waterbird counts, and wildlife surveys. He further stated that they will
also look into public health and safety which includes contaminants in fish and crabs, oyster
harvest areas, and oil spills and fish kills.
During further discussion, Council Member Hoskins stated that some citizens interpreted that the
Baytown water was polluted because of the signs that the foundation put out regarding the
contaminants. In response to Council Member Hoskins statement, Mr. Jones stated that the water
