  • Washburn Tunnel Wastewater Treatment
    Washburn Tunnel Wastewater Treatment Facility WASHBURN TUNNEL & Vince Bayou Receiving Station WASTEWATER TREATMENT Location: Pasadena, TX, on the Houston FACILITY & VINCE BAYOU Ship Channel RECEIVING STATION Process: Activated sludge with atmospheric and pure oxygen infusion (Washburn Tunnel) Capacity: 48 million gallons/day (Washburn Tunnel) 1.4 million gallons/month (Vince Bayou) Acquired in 1973 from Champion Paper Co. and immediately modified and improved, Washburn Tunnel was the first facility to be operated by GCA, providing an early demonstration of the effectiveness and viability of wastewater treatment on a regional scale. Washburn Tunnel serves refineries, petrochemical plants, bulk storage facilities and other local industries located along the Houston Ship Channel. The facility also treats approximately a million gallons per day of municipal waste- water from the City of Pasadena as well as volumes from GCA’s nearby Vince Bayou Receiving Station. The facility receives most of its wastewater via pipeline; one customer, a small specialty fuels refinery, delivers its waste by barge. Wastewater containing high concentra- tions of organic material goes through a two-step activated sludge treatment process involving oxygenation and aeration. The facility’s incoming low-strength streams are mixed with higher-content organic waste streams before the second step of aeration. The final stage of the process utilizes conventional secondary clarifiers to remove much of the remaining solids before the effluent is discharged into the Houston Ship Channel.

  • Stormwater Management Program 2013-2018 Appendix A
    Appendix A 2012 Texas Integrated Report - Texas 303(d) List (Category 5) 2012 Texas Integrated Report - Texas 303(d) List (Category 5) As required under Sections 303(d) and 304(a) of the federal Clean Water Act, this list identifies the water bodies in or bordering Texas for which effluent limitations are not stringent enough to implement water quality standards, and for which the associated pollutants are suitable for measurement by maximum daily load. In addition, the TCEQ also develops a schedule identifying Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) that will be initiated in the next two years for priority impaired waters. Issuance of permits to discharge into 303(d)-listed water bodies is described in the TCEQ regulatory guidance document Procedures to Implement the Texas Surface Water Quality Standards (January 2003, RG-194). Impairments are limited to the geographic area described by the Assessment Unit and identified with a six or seven-digit AU_ID. A TMDL for each impaired parameter will be developed to allocate pollutant loads from contributing sources that affect the parameter of concern in each Assessment Unit. The TMDL will be identified and counted using a six or seven-digit AU_ID. Water Quality permits that are issued before a TMDL is approved will not increase pollutant loading that would contribute to the impairment identified for the Assessment Unit. Explanation of Column Headings SegID and Name: The unique identifier (SegID), segment name, and location of the water body. The SegID may be one of two types of numbers. The first type is a classified segment number (4 digits, e.g., 0218), as defined in Appendix A of the Texas Surface Water Quality Standards (TSWQS).

  • Let's Build the Ike Dike
    Let’s Build the Ike Dike William Merrell One hundred years ago in response to the 1900 Great Storm, we built a seawall to protect the East End of Galveston Island from storm surge. The seawall was severely tested by the 1915 Hurricane and again many times after. It stands today as a testimony to the community leaders who funded it and the engineers who designed and built it. The seawall continues to do its job of preventing catastrophic overflows. In the early 1900s, the seawall was a reasonable response to protecting the most precious manmade infrastructure in the region which was then concentrated on Galveston Island. However, over the last century, we have developed many large human settlements and industrial centers throughout the entire Galveston Bay region. In addition to representing considerable wealth, this human footprint now restricts or prevents movements of natural ecosystems in response to storm surge. It is no longer enough to strive to protect Galveston Island alone, we need to protect the entire Galveston Bay region from coastal flooding. Not surprisingly all community leaders are interested in protecting their citizens from the many real and hidden costs of flooding. Recent discussions have focused on building a dike around the east end of Galveston Island - essentially surrounding the area now behind the seawall.
