For more than 140 years, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ Galveston District has tackled massive projects to provide safety and stability along a coastline stretching from Louisiana to Mexico. The scope of its efforts runs nearly as long as its history, including flood risk mitigation, ecosystem restoration, shoreline protection, navigation, military construction and emergency management services.
That proud—and increasingly crucial—tradition is continuing with three endeavors the Corps is currently overseeing: the Sabine Pass to Galveston Bay Coastal Storm Risk Management (CSRM) project; Buffalo Bayou and Tributaries Study and the Coastal Texas Study.
