Flooding has been a problem in the Mill Creek, Peaks Branch and State-Thomas areas for years
Mill Creek and Peaks Branch were originally natural streams draining into the Trinity River and White Rock Creek
In the early 1900’s, the streams were enclosed in underground pipes
Re-development in the State-Thomas area has exceeded the capacity of local and outfall drainage systems
The drainage systems were sized to carry smaller standard storm events

In a 100-year rain event (1% annual chance):
Undersized local drainage systems cause streets to flood
Flood depths are up to 10 feet high
Additional capacity is needed in the storm sewers to accept added run-off from neighborhood drainage system
