Environmental Statement for Local Flood Protection Project at Three Rivers, Texas. Supplement.

Abstract

Environmental impact statement/report purposes to construct a levee system to protect the city of Three Rivers, Texas from flooding of Frio and Nueces Rivers. No known historical and five archaeological sites will be disturbed. The project will change the land use, but will not conflict with other land use plans for the area. The esthetic quality of the area will be less pleasing with the levee and borrow pits, but the 67 acres of borrow areas may be converted from terrestrial to aquatic habitat. The contractor will have the major responsibility of protecting the environmental resources in connection with the project's construction. (Author)
