Background and Discussion:
The ultimate purpose of this project is to achieve flood reduction benefits in the Dreamland Place, Barrett Settlement, and St Charles Place areas, located in northeast Harris County.

Modeled analyses reveal flooded structures stem from local drainage issues such as siltation and ineffectiveness of the road-side ditch system, as well as due to limited conveyance capacity across the SJRA canal. Ultimate drainage improvements have been recommended for this area which include:
- Improvements to the internal ditch system and the addition of stormwater inlets
- The addition of two storm sewer lines, one under FM 1942, and the other under Milo Drive and Sandman Avenue
- Connection to a proposed pumped detention pond
