The project's stated objectives are to increase the reservoir's outflow capacity, reduce flood risk to adjacent communities, preserve dam safety, and remain within grant funding constraints. Phase 1 planning services were funded through a FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant Award of $4,375,199 and include hydrologic and hydraulic modeling, geotechnical investigations, environmental field studies, permit applications, and engineering alternative evaluations. Key stakeholders identified include the City of Houston, Coastal Water Authority, Harris County Flood Control District, and the Federal Emergency Management Agency, with project benefits measured through a FEMA benefit-cost ratio exceeding 1.0 based on reduced water surface elevation, decreased building flooding, and lessened societal impacts.
