USS Texas dry berth plan stalls on federal funding
The plan to build a permanent dry berth for the USS Texas at San Jacinto Battleground State Historic Park stalls after the federal government refused funding. The 1912 battleship, moored in La Porte for nearly 60 years, would stay in place with a $17 million dry berth project by Texas Parks and Wildlife and the Battleship Texas Foundation. A 2005 state grant of $16.1 million aided earlier efforts under the SAFE TO program. See Texas Page 6A.

Chambers County Residents Join CDC NHANES Health Study
About 400 Chambers County households were randomly selected for the NHANES health and nutrition survey conducted by the CDC. Local field teams began visits in mid November after letters sent in October. Some residents remain wary due to missing advance notices, and the study aims to capture a snapshot of America’s average population as teams travel from metropolitan to rural areas. The effort is conducted with the Chambers County Commissioners Court’s blessing and follows prior sites in Fairfax County Virginia and Hidalgo County Texas.
