Pape-Dawson served as civil engineer for this 424-acre development of 1,152 home sites just outside of Houston. Since this area is historically known for flooding, our team developed and executed HEC-HMS and unsteady-state HEC-RAS models in support of the development. Unsteady-state modeling was prepared to optimize mitigation strategies, pump station configuration, street grading evaluation for extreme event sheet flow, and cost-effective subsurface design. We also helped establish a Water Control and Improvement District for drainage.
