REMINDER: Lake Houston Dam Spillway Improvement Project Community Meeting
Lake Houston Dam Spillway Improvement Project Community Meeting
Mayor Pro Tem Dave Martin would like to invite the Lake Houston community to a public meeting on Thursday, July 8, 2021, at the Kingwood Community Center (4102 Rustic Woods) to provide updates on the Lake Houston Spillway Improvement Project. The program to discuss the Lake Houston Dam Spillway Improvement Project will start at 6:00 p.m. and the event will conclude at 7:45 p.m. This project is part of the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Hazard Mitigation Grant Program. There will be a very brief update on Lake Houston Dredging operations provided by Chief Recovery Officer, Stephen Costello, at 5:45 p.m. before the Spillway Improvement Project program begins.
The Lake Houston Dam Spillway project, located on Lake Houston along the San Jacinto River, will increase the outflow capacity of the Lake Houston Dam. The project proposes installing new crest gates in the existing uncontrolled spillway. This will allow for a rapid decrease of water levels in Lake Houston in advance of storm events to prevent or reduce upstream flooding, protecting about 35,000 residents and 5,000 structures. The FEMA grant provides $4.3 million for the initial phase and positions the city to receive $42.7 million for construction.
Mayor Pro Tem Dave Martin, Houston Public Works, and Coastal Water Authority have been working together under the direction of Chief Recovery Officer Stephen Costello to plan this public forum to discuss the progress of the project. A brief presentation will be made by Chief Recovery Officer Costello on Lake Houston Dredging Operations followed by the main presentation by Black and Veatch, the project engineers for the Lake Houston Dam Spillway improvement Project. The main presentation will be followed by a short time for questions and answers, which will then transition into a breakout session. The breakout session will allow the community to engage with project management staff and engineers in small groups to ask more detailed questions.
