A Survey of Fish and Assessment of Aquatic Habitat on Camp Maxie and Camp Bowie Bases

The Texas Military Department has the goal of establishing a recreational and sustainable fishery for the ponds located on Camp Maxie, a Texas Army National Guard Training Site located near Paris, Texas, and Camp Bowie, a training center for the Texas Military Forces located near Brownwood, Texas. In order to understand the aquatic community and habitat, this study seeks to survey fish and assess the habitat on 9 ponds found on the bases along with perennial streams to identify changes in activity and actions required to prevent and reverse impacts of the aquatic community. This presentation will overview the study and the data analysis and key deliverables required to complete the study.
