Request for approval to sign an amendment to a Multi-Purpose Application for DACW64-2-20-0002 easement renewal from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Galveston District for HCFCD Unit W167-04-00 within the Buffalo Bayou Watershed (Precinct 4).

Background and Discussion:
The Flood Control District has been granted easements along certain channels within the Addicks Reservoir, Barker Reservoir, and Buffalo Bayou watersheds. An easement amendment is needed for access along a reach of channel referred to by the District as W167-04-00 within the Buffalo Bayou watershed for maintenance activities.
Expected Impact:
An amended easement will allow for improved maintenance of the west side of the W167-04-00 channel, which will help optimize flood risk reduction.
Alternative Options:
The alternative would be not to proceed with requesting the amended easement. The Flood Control District would not have property rights to perform maintenance activities along the west side of the channel.
