Project Description
Galveston County designed and constructed a restroom building.
Galveston County designed and constructed a restroom building.
The CEA-IT will deliver a data-driven method to determine areas that are critically eroding due to various factors The tool will be instrumental in identifying these key areas within the Coastal Management Zone.
Taking the 30% shoreline and marsh design to 100% design
Halff will conduct a creek diversion feasibility analysis, conduct green stormwater engineering designs, and gain commitments from target communities toward the implementation of the State of Texas Coastal Nonpoint Source Pollution program.
Texas A&M AgriLife Research will develop geographic information system and remote sensing-based methods for identifying the locations of on-site sewage facilities (OSSFs) and compare the capabilities of these methods to ground-truthed OSSF data.
The proposed work includes collection and review of existing data, a new data collection effort, performing coastal engineering analysis to determine the optimal layout, design, and orientation of groins along the Palacioswaterfront.
Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi will use funding to conduct beach benthic macrofaunal monitoring to assess time for the benthic invertebrate community to recover following a beach nourishment event at the City of South Padre Island. Will sample at one location in front of Clayton's Pier and at three control sites. TAMUCC will use Coastal Management Program GOMESA funding to conduct post-nourishment benthic sampling for 10+ months following nourishment at the City of South Padre Island beach (and the respective control beaches).
Texas A&M University - Corpus Christi will conduct post-nourishment benthic sampling following beach nourishment at Jamaica and Sargent beaches.
The project restored six miles of shoreline along the Texas Point National Wildlife Refuge.
