Abstract
Flooding of Dickinson Bayou, Dickinson, Texas is described in a report of flood plain problems based on records of rainfall, runoff, and historical and present flood heights. Maps, photographs, profiles, and cross sections indicate the extent of flooding that has occurred and which may be expected to occur in the future. The information is for use in study and planning ways to minimize vulnerability to flood damages by control of flood plain use by zoning and subdivision regulations, the construction of flood protection works, or by combinations of these approaches.
