Flood Damage Reduction Tools

The Harris County Flood Control District utilizes a number of primary tools to reduce flood damages throughout the county. Generally speaking, these tools are implemented in flood damage reduction projects.

Some of the primary options the District considers for flood damage reduction are termed "structural" tools, while others are termed "non-structural" tools. There are a variety of criteria that determine which tools are most appropriate to use when implementing a project. Two of the most important criteria are how much flood damage reduction benefit is gained by the total dollars invested in the project and making sure the project selected has appropriate regard for community and natural values.
