Background and Discussion:
The Cypress Place subdivision of Emerald Forest is located in northwest Harris County in the White Oak Bayou watershed and consists of an open roadside drainage ditch system that outfall into HCFCD channel E132-02-01. The Substantial Completion Certificate provides documentation that a capital improvement project meets the qualifications of Substantial Completion in accordance with the Contract Documents as determined by the County Engineer. Substantial Completion establishes the date on which a capital improvement enters service as a Harris County asset. The establishment and reporting of this date is important for all governmental entities as outlined in the GASB Statement #34, Capital Assets & Depreciation Guidance, August 31, 2001. These certificates provide a method by which Harris County may document and record this date.
