Elyson is a 3,600-acre master-planned community located in Harris County near SH 99 and FM 529 in Harris County, Texas. The project is anticipated to include six utility districts at completion and currently comprises four active utility districts. At build-out, the project is expected to provide over 5,700 acre-feet of flood storage for detention and mitigation purposes and a mix of commercial, industrial and residential development.
BGE developed an extensive interconnected waterway system capable of addressing the complex and daunting flooding challenges of the Elyson development, located in the Cypress Creek Overflow. Harris County Flood Control District (HCFCD) recently completed a TWBD-funded study of the overflow and proposed solutions that could have delayed or stopped Elyson from proceeding. BGE worked closely with HDFCD and other stakeholders to define an alternative approach to address concerns and develop a path to approval. BGE’s drainage solution in the overflow zone is unique to this area, providing added flood control protection and safety for residents and the surrounding area.
