C-03 Federal Flood Risk Management Project Heads for Coastal Park

The final path of this project has not been finalized, but there is fear it could take some or all of Coastal Baseball Park's 17 acres. The Entire Coastal Baseball Park touches Clear Creek on its South Boundary. Coastal Baseball Park is the Southern Most piece of Property in Harris County and the City of Houston. Clear Creek stands as the boundary with Houston/Pearland and Harris/Brazoria County.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The Clear Creek Federal Flood Risk Management Project is a partnership project between the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the Harris County Flood Control District, Galveston County, Brazoria Drainage District No. 4 and the City of Pearland. As of the June 2019 Project Partnership Agreement between the Corps and the Flood Control District, the Flood Control District is the lead agency for this project, under a non-federal implementation pilot program authorized by Section 1043(b) of the Water Resources Reform and Development Act (WRRDA) of 2014.

As with other Corps projects led by the Flood Control District under Section 211(f) of WRDA 1996, this pilot program allows local sponsors to carry out federal projects subject to certain federal requirements, with the Corps providing administration and oversight. The pilot program also allows the Corps to transfer the estimated federal share of eligible project costs to the local sponsor before costs are incurred.

As the lead agency, the Flood Control District will manage, design, and build the project; buy land, easements, and rights-of-way; relocate utilities; adjust or replace bridges; and operate and maintain portions of the project within Harris County after construction is complete. The Flood Control District will enter separate interlocal agreements to share the non-federal costs and the operation and maintenance responsibilities of the project.

The project was identified and recommended by a General Reevaluation Report (GRR) completed by the Corps in 2013. The GRR presents an alternative to the Clear Creek Federal Project that was previously being implemented by the Corps, Flood Control District, and Galveston County based on a 1986 agreement.The revised project that will be constructed includes:

2nd Outlet Channel and Gates from Clear Creek to Galveston Bay (already complete)
15.1 miles of channel conveyance improvements along Clear Creek from State Highway 288 to Dixie Farm Road
2.4 miles of channel conveyance improvements along Turkey Creek from Dixie Farm Road to Clear Creek
2.1 miles of channel conveyance improvements along Mary's Creek from Harkey Road to State Highway 35
0.8 miles of channel conveyance improvements along Mud Gully from Sagerock Drive to Beamer Road
500 acre-feet of in-line stormwater detention along Clear Creek.
Additional offline stormwater detention facilities
17 bridge replacements or modifications
Environmental mitigation and enhancements

Once complete, the Clear Creek Federal Flood Risk Management Project will help reduce the risk of flooding in the 1% (100-year) floodplain along Clear Creek. To supplement the benefits of the Federal Project, three stormwater detention basins are moving forward as locally-funded 2018 Bond Program projects along Clear Creek: the Dagg Stormwater Detention Basin, the Hughes Stormwater Detention Basin and the South Belt Stormwater Detention Basin.
