Trinity River Levees Breaking

Not IF but WHEN?

Another rainstorm and the failing levees, well, fail.

Combine, 30 miles east of Dallas, held an Emergency Meeting tonight. Below is the agenda.

Condition of the levee; imminence of breach of the levee; investigation results of the levee by engineers; and emergency management activities pertaining to possible evacuation, area of impact (both City and ETJ) if levee is breached, evacuation notification to citizens of Combine and in the ETJ, evacuation routes and procedures, and management of emergency services between City, county personnel, adjacent city personnel and State personnel.

Residents were told to have an evacuation plan and sign up for the emergency call list.
