Background and Discussion:
The purpose of the Preliminary Engineering Report (PER) was to identify a drainage improvement project for the Q130-00-00 watershed (a tributary of Cedar Bayou) that will provide water surface elevations reductions within the watershed. The identified project consists of two detention basins and approximately 3,300 linear feet of Natural Stable Channel Design improvements, which is the first phase of a larger flood risk mitigation solution planned for the watershed. Supporting design information collected as part of the PER includes topographic survey of the basin and channels in the study area, geotechnical investigation, subsurface utility engineering exploration, jurisdictional wetland delineation, threaten and endangered.
Expected Impact:
The acceptance of this PER will allow the District to move into the engineering stage of this project.
Alternative Options:
The alternative should this PER not be accepted is that the District will not be able to proceed to the design phase of this project.
