	Brazos River - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Its main tributaries are the Clear Fork of the Brazos, which passes by Abilene and joins the main river near Graham; Bosque River; Little River; Yegua Creek; and Navasota River.
		While the river was important for navigation before the American Civil War, it is primarily important today as a source of water for power and irrigation.
		The water is administered by the Brazos River Authority.

	Handbook of Texas Online:
		The North Bosque River, the longest branch of the river, rises in north central Erath County and cuts through Hamilton County into Bosque County, where it is joined by the East Bosque River, which rises in Erath County.
		From their confluence the North Bosque continues into central McLennan County, where it is joined by the South and Middle Bosque rivers as it flows into Lake Waco.
		The upper branches, in Erath, Hamilton, and Bosque counties, are relatively narrow, free-flowing, and scenic, with clear water and heavily vegetated banks.

	A River Runs Through It: Waste Management at Center of Controversy - Tierra Grande (October 2002)
		The North Bosque is a small, 100-mile-long seasonal river that flows from north of Stephenville south to Lake Waco, the sole source of drinking water for about 150,000 people.
		The North Bosque River, which feeds into the lake (left), is home to some 80 dairies and to small communities with wastewater plants.
		In February 2001, the TNRCC placed the North Bosque under TMDL (total maximum daily load) restrictions for soluble reactive phosphorus with the objective of reducing the volume of phosphorus going into the river by 50 percent and thus controlling the growth of excess algae.

	Re: phosphorus
		The EPA conducted tests and determined that the Bosque River had excessive concentrations of soluble phosphorus.
		These "stakeholders" included municipalities and industry groups in the Bosque River watershed who would be impacted by any corrective plan.
		TNRCC's stated goal in the TMDL is to reduce phosphorus in the Bosque by 50%.

		As children we liked to walk down to the Bosque River, below the Collins Street Bridge to catch fish." Betty Heath planted her feet in the lush green grass that in early March had already grown tall enough to ripple gently in the afternoon breeze.
		Fishing in the Bosque was great summer fun and all you needed was a can of worms, a cane pole, a hook and some line." She stuck the daisy in her graying hair just over her right ear.
		As an enthusiastic member of the Chamber of Commerce, Betty noted the trashy condition of her childhood friend, the Bosque River, and suggested a general clean-up and policing of the area.

	Bosque Leon River Pollution
		Water quality problems persist in the Bosque and Leon River Watersheds, and dairy industry operations are the apparent sources of those problems, according to a report released today by the Sierra Club’s Texas Water Sentinels Project.
		Water Quality Report on the Bosque and Leon River Watersheds, (online at http://www.texas.sierraclub.org/press/waterqualityreport.asp) documents the results of water sampling conducted by the Sierra Club to assess the impacts on water quality from concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) – in this case industrial dairies – in the two watersheds.
		Moreover, the continued approval of new and expanded CAFO operations in these watersheds poses the threat of further degradation of water quality in the Bosque and Leon River watersheds and in Lake Waco and Lake Belton, says the Sierra Club.

		There are numerous dairies that produce large quantities of manure in the North Bosque River watershed that will be affected by the TMDL regulation.
		The transport of manure nutrients in turfgrass sod may be a sustainable means to export composted dairy manure from the North Bosque River watershed.
		This GIS information can then be used in hydrology simulation models such as the Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) to assess improvements in water quality in the North Bosque River watershed due to the export of manure nutrients in turfgrass sod.
