Background and Discussion:
This feasibility study will be led by the San Jacinto River Authority. The District is a funding partner for up to 50% of the required local match. This work effort is partially funded by a grant from the Texas Water Development Board through the Flood Infrastructure Fund which will provide up to $750,000 with a 50% local match requirement of $375,000. The purpose of the study is to identify potential location(s) to construct one or more sand traps along the San Jacinto River and its tributaries upstream of Lake Houston. Allowing sediment to accumulate in a designated location(s) will reduce long term operation and maintenance costs.

Fiscal Impact:
The agreement is for up to $162,500 and will be funded out of the 2018 Bond Program, Bond ID C-50.
