Congress Bill Lets Corps Study Baytown Levee Plan
U S Army Corps of Engineers may draft plans for a West Baytown levee to protect coastal bays from hurricane surges. Rep Bob Eckhardt backs quick action while Sen Ralph Yarborough supports the project. A key engineer letter notes subsidence from groundwater withdrawals and advocates a primary coast defense with secondary structures. The levee would enclose Burnet Scott and Crystal Bays lowering water to 2.5 feet below sea level and replacing salt water with fresh water, creating a recreation buffer near the San Jacinto Monument.
