Harris County Flood Control seeks public input on flood risk plans across 11 watersheds

Harris County Flood Control District officials are looking for residents to provide input with their flood experiences during extreme weather events and how the county’s 11 watersheds have impacted their communities.

Two-minute impact: Along with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the HCFCD is spearheading Phase 1 of what’s being called the Solutions for Advancing Floodplain Evaluation and Resilience study. The SAFER study’s aim, according to HCFCD, is to evaluate and identify large-scale flood risk reduction projects across these 11 watersheds in Harris County:

  • Brays Bayou
  • Buffalo Bayou
  • Clear Creek
  • Cypress Creek
  • Little Cypress Creek
  • Greens Bayou
  • Halls Bayou
  • Hunting Bayou
  • Sims Bayou
  • Vince Bayou
  • White Oak Bayou

What they're saying: HCFCD officials at an August Cypress Creek workshop said the multiyear, multiphase initiative will incorporate technical analysis to develop a strategy using both structural and non-structural tools such as detention basins, tunnels and floodplain risk analysis. 
 

What residents should know: The online survey on the HCFCD website is available for Phase 1 public input until Sept. 25.
