Greens Bayou Tributary Channel Repairs Underway
December 13, 2006
The Harris County Flood Control District has begun repairing severely eroded banks of a Greens Bayou tributary in northeast Harris County. The $100,000 project will rehabilitate side slopes of the channel that runs east-west from John Ralston Road to the C.E. King Parkway (F.M. 526), north of Tidwell Road. The work is being performed on a three-quarter mile stretch of the channel.
Erosion is caused by a combination of poor soil quality and the conveyance of stormwater. In Harris County, soils are often sandy and sugary in texture and can easily slough off, especially from the rapid conveyance of stormwater. Maintenance projects, such as this one, are required on many of the county's 2,500 miles of channels.
