Palmetto project draws focus in Port Lavaca
Farghar backs the Palmetto dam plan while fearing potential state lawsuits. The project would cover 16 000 acres along the Navidad River with 95 percent land acquired and 16 million budgeted for next year. The 1.3 mile dam would include 6 6 mile dikes and spillways handling 190 000 cfs, with multi level outlets preserving estuarine water flow. Recreational facilities at three sites and a 1000 acre lake are planned, and construction could start within five months of a ruling. Governor Briscoe supports water resource development and coastal counties seek cooperation. A 1973 law on submerged lands and a Corpus Christi lawsuit affect land control and further rulings.
