Texas Groundwater Protection Committee (TGPC)
TGPC is a consortium of nine state agencies and the Texas Association of Groundwater Districts. The committee is charged with the state's preparation of the Pesticide Management Plans (PMPs). Much of this work is done through the Agricultural Chemicals Task Force of the Groundwater Issues Subcommittee. The Task Force is responsible for writing and revising generic and pesticide-specific state management plans. Texas Pesticide Management Plan for Prevention of Pesticide Contamination of Groundwater (PMP) was published by TNRCC/TCEQ in January of 2001. The plan describes the general policies and regulatory approaches the state will use in order to protect groundwater resources from risk of contamination by pesticides.
