Funded in part by a state grant, a master plan study will aim to combat flooding and water quality issues in Nueces, Kleberg and Jim Wells counties.
In May, the Texas Water Development Board approved a grant of about $2.1 million for the study, which is a collaboration between Nueces, Jim Wells and Kleberg counties; the Nueces County Drainage District No. 2; and the city of Driscoll.
The study will involve developing hydrology/hydraulic computer models of the Baffin Bay and South Corpus Christi watersheds across all three counties.
The study will cover Agua Dulce Creek, Petronila Creek, Alazan Bay/Baffin Bay and Oso Creek.
