Trinity River Adaptive Management Working Group (TAMWG)
In response to a May 5, 2017 memo from the Office of the Secretary, Department of the Interior, all TAMWG meetings have been postponed until further notice.The memo states:"The Secretary is committed to restoring trust in the Department's decision making, and that begins with institutionalizing state and local input and ongoing collaboration. The Department currently includes more than 200 boards, committees, subcommittees, commissions, and other internal and external advisory bodies (committees) that are authorized to meet periodically and solicit input. To maximize feedback from these committees and ensure their compliance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), the President's recent executive orders, and the Secretary's recent secretary's orders, the Department is currently reviewing the charter and charge of each committee. This review necessitates the postponement of all meetings, which will be rescheduled for September 2017 or later."
