Draft Environmental Assessment. City of Clute Parks and Recreation Department Building Replacement Project. FEMA-DR-1791-TX, PW 12768. Brazoria County, Texas.

摘要

On September 13, 2008, Hurricane Ike struck the Texas Gulf Coast, causing extensive damage. Subsequently, a Presidential Disaster Declaration, FEMA-DR-1791-TX, was signed for Hurricane Ike. High winds associated with Hurricane Ike caused a large tree to break and fall onto the City of Clute Parks and Recreation Department building, causing severe damage. The building has since been demolished due to public health and safety concerns. The City of Clute, Texas, has submitted an improved project application (Project Worksheet 12768) for Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) funding under FEMA's Public Assistance Program being administered in response to FEMA-DR-1791-TX for the replacement and expansion of the City of Clute Parks and Recreation Department Building. As an Improved Project, applicants performing restoration work on a damaged facility may use the opportunity to make additional improvements, while restoring the facility to its pre-disaster function and capacity.
