WHO
Brays Bayou Flood Damage Reduction Project (Project Brays), the largest, most extensive flood damage reduction project ever to be managed by the Harris County Flood Control District.

WHAT
With the concern of flooding at the forefront of many people's minds, particularly along Brays Bayou, the District has recently launched www.projectbrays.org. This website will educate the community about flood damage reduction along Brays Bayou and track the progress of Project Brays.

Projectbrays.org features up-to-date construction information on the various flood damage reduction project features along the bayou, information on traffic detours and a community calendar listing upcoming Project Brays presentations at local community meetings, information fairs and public meetings. The site also includes a Project Brays overview and history, Frequently Asked Questions, photographs and maps, a learning center and many more tools and resources.


WHAT ELSE
Projectbrays.org is part of an overall public information program, which also includes:
  • A Project Brays hotline at 713-316-4820 for information and inquiries
  • Public meetings and open houses
  • Speaking engagements to community groups and other organizations
Project Brays, a cooperative effort between the District and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, is designed to benefit thousands of residents and businesses by reducing the risk of flood damage along Brays Bayou. In addition, Project Brays provides opportunities for third parties to sponsor multi-use greenspace recreational amenities, such as parks, picnic areas and hike and bike trails for the Brays Bayou community.

The District is responsible for approximately 1,700 square miles of Harris County, specifically the 22 major watersheds and 2,500 miles of watercourses throughout Harris County.
