The TWDB designated 15 flood planning regions in Texas on April 9, 2020. Board designation of flood planning regions is required under Senate Bill 8, 86th Texas Legislature, which established a new regional and state flood planning process for the state.
The 2023 revision reassigns small orphaned areas along the coast to regions with a better fit. Less than 3 sqmi total is reassigned. For Region 5 (Neches) this removes Harris County from the list of counties in the region.
1. 19 area geo-objects transferred from R5 Neches to R3 Trinity (4) and R6 San Jacinto (15) – 2.405 sqmi total
2. 3 area geo-objects transferred from R10 Lower Colorado-Lavaca to R12 San Antonio – 0.032 sqmi total
3. 8 area geo-objects transferred from R12 San Antonio to R13 Nueces – 0.082 sqmi Texas Water Development Board, Flood Planning Division |
