February 1973 WATER ORIENTED DATA PROGRAMS SECTION INTERAGENCY COUNCIL ON NATURAL RESOURCES AND ENVIRONMENT P.O. BOX 13087 AUSTIN, TEXAS 78711 February 1, 1973 The Interagency Council on Natural Resources and the Environment Austin, Texas Gentlemen: On July 24, 1972, the Council charged the Water Oriented Data Programs Section with implementing recommendations made by the Section concerning the establishment of a Natural Resources Information System for the State of Texas. Specifically, the Section was charged with first identifying and categorizing natural resources data and information collected, stored, and used by State agencies, and with reporting on progress in this endeavor to the Council by February 1, 1973. Following the Council's July 24 meeting, the Natural Resources Information System Task Force was established to assist the Section in carrying out the Council's charge. The Task Force, which includes representatives from each of the Council member agencies, held its first meeting August 18, 1972. I.ri all, the Task Force held eight working sessions while gathering and preparing material for its report to the Council. The Section takes pleasure in presenting this report on a Natural Resources Information System for Texas to the Council. We urge that the Council give careful consideration to the recommendations contained herein, and we trust that the efforts of the Task Force will materially assist the Council in reaching its decision regarding this important matter. Respectfully submitted, C. R. 2 Chairman ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This report represents the combined efforts of many individuals who, because of the interest of their respective organizations in exploring ways to better manage the State's natural resources, were able to contribute generously of their time and expertise to its preparation. These individuals made their contributions largely as a result of their membership in the Natural Resources Information System Task Force and through participation in the eight working sessions held by the Task Force during formulation and preparation of the report. All Task Force members contributed materially to the report. It is felt however, that special mention should be made of the report-drafting Sub-committee that not only provided much input for the regularly scheduled Task Force deliberations, but also labored so diligently in many of its own working meetings as well as on individual assignments. Sub-committee members were David L. Ferguson, Chairman, E. G. Wermund, Samuel V. Fox, Frank J. Call, and Lial F. Tischler. John B. Wells and Alexander J. Tuyahov from the Office of Information Services of the Office of the Governor met and worked with the Sub-committee. They, too, are deserving of special recognition for their contributions as advisory members of both the Sub-committee and the Task Force. Additionally, special mention should *be made of Charles Cooke and Ward C. Goessling from the Division of Planning Coordination of the Office of the Governor. These individuals, although also not officially members of the Task Force, gave unselfishly of their time to attend the Task Force's sessions. Their comments on the activities of the Task Force were most helpful. Visitors, observers, and parties making special presentations to or for the Task Force included: Herb Grubb and Walter A. Wood, Office of Information Services, Office of the Governor; Jack Bowen, Jr., Senate Interim Committee on Environmental Affairs; Hubert A. Henry, Director of the Division of Automation, Texas Highway Department; and R. K. Gabrysch of the U.S. Geological Survey. The interest and assistance of these individuals is most appreciated by the Task Force. A complete list of the entities and individuals participating in one or more of the Task Force meetings follows. The interest shown in the Task Force's endeavor is evidenced by the fact that several entities, in order to be represented at the regularly scheduled Task Force meetings, had to frequently designate an alternate representative because of scheduling conflicts involving the agency's regular Task Force member. In the following list, both designated representatives and alternates are shown. ENTITY REPRESENTATIVE(S) Bureau of Economic Geology, E. G.

HISTORY OF NATURAL RESOURCES INFORMATION SYSTEM ACTIVITIES One of our State's greatest assets is its natural resources, and one of our great challenges for tomorrow is the proper planning, developing, managing, and conservation of these resources. Many agencies within the State are vitally concerned with our State's natural resources and their preservation. The need to consider the total effects of any particular action or project on the natural resources of the State is becoming increasingly more evident with time as exemplified by the public concern for the preservation of environmental quality. The resource manager, whether he is interested in regulatory and enforcement activities, managing a natural resource, or planhing the future use of natural resources, needs to apply a multidisciplinary approach to his effort. This approach requires that a number of different types of natural resources and socio-economic data and information be readily available to the resource manager. Recent federal legislation requiring the filing of environmental impact statements on a wide variety of projects, and pending federal legislation concerning other areas of environmental protection, resource management, and land use planning further point out the need for an integrated approach. Several states including New Mexico, Arizona, and Wisconsin are well on the way to providing the necessary information systems to deal with these problems and have found many side benefits with the increased cooperation and coordinaiton among their state resource agencies. In June 1972, the Water Oriented Data Programs Section (WODPS) of the Interagency Council on Natural Resources and the Environment presented the Report of the Water Oriented Data Programs Section to the Interagency Council on Natural Resources and the Environment on the Establishment of a Natural Resources Information System for the State of Texas. The WODPS recommended that the State of Texas should pursue the development of a Natural Resources Information System (NRIS) to facilitate the fulfillment of the specific statutory responsibilities and administrative needs of the various agencies involved in planning, developing, operating, managing, conserving, and protecting the natural resources of the State. A major objective of the NR IS would be to provide maximum availability of natural resources data and information consistent with cost and efficiency. By making known the types and availability of natural resources data and information, the potential for duplication of data collection among the various agencies would be reduced. An information exchange system of this type would permit each agency to have access to available natural resources information and data. The establishment of this system would also provide a means for improving coordination of data collection activities among the various participating agencies which would help assure that the State's money is spent in the most cost effective manner. A NRIS could also serve as an interface with Federal Natural Resource Agencies to facilitate the exchange of information between the State and federal agencies. In their June report to the Interagency Council on Natural Resources and the Environment the WODPS made specific recommendations regardingthe planning and establishment of a Natural Resources Information System. These specific recommendations included: That the Interagency Council on Natural Resources and the Environment utilize the WODPS to continue the development of the Texas Water Oriented Data Bank (TWODB) and that the TWODB serve as a pilot project for the NR IS, and That the WODPS concurrently accomplish certain initial activities toward developing a Natural Resources Information System for the State of Texas; these initial activities to include an identification and categorization of the natural resources data and information presently being collected, stored and used by State agencies, preparatory to a complete inventory of the available natural resources data and the conceptual design of such an information system. At meetings held in June and July of 1972, the Interagency Council on Natural Resources and the Environment discussed the WODPS Report and its recommendations in detail and charged the WODPS with the following tasks: To proceed without interruption on the implementation of the TWODB and, concurrently, To establish an NRIS task force under the direction of the WODPS which would include representatives of all member agencies of the Interagency Council on Natural Resources and the Environment, To undertake direction of this task force and to proceed with the preliminary categorization and identification activities, To submit a report to the Interagency Council on Natural Resources and the Environment by February 1, 1973, on these categorization and identification activities with recommendations for approval of a plan and manpower estimate for accomplishing the data inventory concurrent with conceptual design of the system. The first NRIS task force meeting was held on August 18, 1972, with representatives of fourteen State agencies and two Universities present. Subsequent meetings followed as the task force set out to categorize and identify the natural resources data collected, stored or used by State agencies. By the end of calendar year 1972, seven task force meetings had been held. 11. NATURAL RESOURCES INFORMATION SYSTEM DATA AND INFORMATION CATEGORIES AND SUBCATEGORIES The first effort-of the -task force iwas to "define" natural resources by developing a set of categories and subcategories which would adequately "contain" the data to be later identified. These categories and subcategories would be subject to revision as the identification activity proceeded. From the outset, it was decided that the intent of the identification activity was to identify all data and information holdings which might even remotely be considered natural resources. It was important to avoid including information already part of an existing State Information System, such as the Criminal Justice Information System or the Health Information System; with the exception of the TWODB. The following categories and subcategories have evolved from the identification activity and represent a "definition" of the data and information which might ultimately be included in the Texas Natural Resources Information System: 1. Geographic Base Data 11. Meteorological Resources A. Climatological B. Air Quality C. Man's Activities Ill. Biological Resources A. Animal B. Plant C. Micro-Organisms D. Man's Activities IV. Water Resources A. Surface B. Subsurface C. Man's Activities V. Geologic Resources A. Surface B. Subsurface C. Man's Activities VI. Socio-Economic Resources A. Social B. Economic C. Commerce D. Government E. Archaeologic -2- Most categories appear self-explanatory excepting Geographic Base Data and Man's Activities. Geographic Base Data includes landmark data and man's subdivisions which serve as a supportive category to provide a common denominator to locate natural resources. "Man's Activities" include data and information associated with the interaction of man and each specific categoiy. The socio-economic data are not purely "natural" but describe the interrelationship between man, nature, and man-made conditions. 111. IDENTIFICATION OF NATURAL RESOURCES DATA AND INFORMATION The preliminary identification activity was accomplished by the use of a questionnaire completed by each NRIS task force member. The questionnaire shown on page 4 was designed not only to provide a uniform method for data and information identification but also to provide information concerning the form, coverage, frequency of collection, and period of record for data collection activities. These completed questionnaires from each NRIS task force member agency have been synthesized and aggregated into tabular form in this section of the report. The following abbreviations have been used.

EVALUATION OF THE IDENTIFICATION AND CATEGORIZATION ACTIVITIES The results of this preliminary identification and categorization of natural resources data and information yielded valuable information concerning various aspects of natural resources data and information collected, used, or stored by the various State agencies. This endeavor is an invaluable first step toward realization of a Texas Natural Resources Information System. Various results and evaluations are stated in the following list: 1. The main categories of data and information have been identified within each participating agency. This provides a format to further query agencies within the State for either additional or more detailed natural resources information. 2. A large category of Socio-Economic Resources has been identified and its interaction with a NRIS is recognized. However, it is likely that this category should evolve into a separate information system designed for accessibility and compatibility with other Texas Information Systems. 3. Four categories of near equal rank have been identified: Meteorology, Water, Biology, and Geology. This suggests that each category is an important subsystem of data which requires further identification, categorization, inventory, and maintenance. It should be noted that each category has different "levels" of subcategories which contain various degrees of detail. In addition there is a supportive category called Geographic Base Data which provides the common denominator to locate natural resources. 4. There appear to be some duplications of activities among the participating Texas State Agencies in this preliminary categorization. It is anticipated however, that a detailed inventory would show no actual duplication. Different agencies do collect like data but, in reality, they collect like data for different goals thus leading to different forms of similar data. By knowing who collects what data, agency administrators could optimize this collection process. 5. Three broad data storage formats have been identified: machine processable, textual, and mapped. The machine processable data includes data which is on cards, tape, etc.; textual data are published and unpublished reports; mapped data includes maps or aerial data. The textual and mapped data will rarely be formatted into machine processable data. 6. The geological category is possibly the most complicated and elusive. To create a Geological Data Base consisting entirely of machine processable data would be extremely costly and would require an extended period of time because this data is primarily textual and mapped. 7. These activities have allowed for no distinction concerning the reliability of information or data. A problem exists in that some data are direct measurements whereas other data are interpretations. Further study will be required to develop reliability codes. 8. Other natural resources data exist in entities outside the Interagency Council on Natural Resources and the Environment including various University systems, local, regional, State, and federal agencies. 9. This preliminary identification indicates that the system will be large and complex. These present activities are only a first step and many additional refinements are needed. It will not be possible to develop a working system with part time help or committee action alone. 10. Further NRIS activities must look at the needs of the various participating agencies. The next phase of NRIS development must, as outlined in the recommendations to follow, be substantially more intensive than this first phase and must include a geographic location system. 11. A large portion of the identified natural resources data and information will be contained in the TWODB. On-going TWODB activities can easily be integrated into proposed NR IS activities by expanding the level of staff support and coordinating NR IS development with the WODPS. V. RECOMMENDATIONS After careful consideration of the presently conceived NRIS objectives, expected benefits, and evaluation of the preliminary identification, the NRIS task force makes the following recommendations: 1 . That the Interagency Council pursue the establishment of a NRIS for the State of Texas in a phased approach with appropriate checkpoints. 2. That the TWODI3 presently being implemented by the WODPS with primary staff support from the Texas Water Development Board serve as a pilot project and nucleus for the N R IS. 3. That the NRIS task force under the direction of the WODPS continue to function and direct the next phase of development. 4. That the next phase of development include a detailed inventory of the machine processable natural resources data and information presently available from the participating agencies (over and above that inventoried by the WODPS) concurrent with the conceptual design of the NRIS. Experience with the TWODB indicates that an inventory of machine processable data is a logical first step toward a complete inventory. The results of this detailed inventory would be a file description report containing detailed information on each machine processable file of natural resources data and information, The detailed inventory of the mapped and textual data should follow, consistent with the conceptual design and appropriate checkpoints. The conceptual design activity should include a review of TWODB concepts and continued evaluation of NRIS objectives. 5. That the proposed NRIS be designed in an "open-ended" manner able to include various new data subcategories as they arise and that efforts should be made to strive for compatibility between this system and existing and proposed State and federal systems. Using the TWODI3 as a nucleus for the N RIS should insure this flexibility and compatibility. 6. That the Interagency Council urge its member agencies to provide staff capabilities to support the implementation of the TWODI3 and the continued development of the NRIS thru the next approved phase. Although it is still difficult to precisely define NRIS manpower requirements, the following estimates can be made based on experience with TWODB activities. Assuming legislative approval of two previously requested TWDB staff positions for TWODI3 implementation, it is estimated that with two additional analyst positions, the necessary full-time staff capability could be provided for the detailed inventory phase and conceptual design. In addition, approximately one to two man-months of support would be required from each participating agency during the inventory of machine processable data and information. With this level of support, it is estimated that this first phase inventory could be completed in approximately nine to twelve months, concurrent with TWODB implementation and support of the NRIS task force conceptual design activity. 7. That the Socio-Economic category become a separate information system as soon as possible.. That the Interagency Council on Natural Resources and the Environment recommend that the design of this Socio-Economic system be undertaken by the appropriate agencies or appropriate interagency council. Pending such activities it is recommended that presently identified Socio-Economic data be included in the NRIS on a low priority basis. To insure compatability between these systems, the Interagency Council on Natural Resources and the Environment should maintain respresentation in the design of the Socio-Economic system. APPENDIX A Included in this Appendix are the original NRIS questionnaires completed by each participating Agency. These questionnaires were a first step in the preliminary identification of natural resources data and information. Agency representatives were to identify data and information which was collected, used or stored by their respective agencies with no attempt to identify data "needs". These questionnaires do not present a complete and exact picture of each Agency's data holdings and are not intended to describe the accessibility of these data holdings. These questionnaires were used as the basis for developing the synthesized and aggregated tabulations of natural resources data and information shown in Section I I I of this report. _10- IDENTIFICATION 0 F N A T U R A L R E S 0 U R C E S D A T A A N D INFORMATION Page I of 5 Q U E S T 1 0 N N A I R E AGENCY NAME TWRC (j) 0 0 BE COMPLETED ONLY FOR DATA WHICH IS COLLECTED BY-YOUR AGENCY DATA BRIEF NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION FORM (D FREQUENCY(A)PERIOD QD DATA CATEGORY/SUB-CATEGORY CLASS- OF THIS DATA CLASSIFICATION OF DATA OF OF RECORD DESCRIPTION OF DATA COLLECTION COVERAGE F_ IFICATION STORAGE COLLECTION FROM TO I.
