Harrison Rogers Detention Facility
The recently dedicated Harrison Rogers Detention Facility will deepen the currently constructed detention pond on the eastern portion of the property and connect it to the proposed detention pond on the western portion. The ponds will utilize a pumped system to fully maximize the capacity and will provide additional flood mitigation for the surrounding neighborhoods of Mimosa Acres and Willowcrest.
The ponds are located at the BDD4 offices property on either sides of the back parking lot and shop.
Westminister Ditch
This project has been completed
Westminister (BBQ) Ditch is an existing drainage channel located just north of the intersection of FM 518 & Pearland Parkway. The ditch is a grass-lined channel that drains east before discharging into Clear Creek.
The purpose of this project is to shift the ditch within District owned Right of Way in order to provide sufficient maintenance access on both sides of the channel. The District will also rehabilitate and re-establish the slope of this ditch as well as replace failing outfalls.

Clear Creek Reclamation Project
This project has been completed
This project’s scope is to remove approximately 90,000 yards of dirt from the Clear Creek channel creating a bench just above the static water level, thus creating additional detention within the banks of the channel. This project continues and connects with a job completed last year just upstream that commenced one quarter mile south of the Barry Rose bridge. The previous job was approximately one quarter mile in length, the current project is approximately one half mile in length.
