Abstract
Hydrologic investigations of urban areas in Texas were begun by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1954. These investigations are now in progress in several major metropolitan areas including Austin, Dallas, Dallas County, Fort Worth, Houston, and San Antonio.
In October 1968, the Geological Survey, in cooperation with the city of Fort Worth, began a program of hydrologic investigations on several small streams in Fort Worth. The investigations are designed to evaluate factors affecting floods on small streams in the metropolitan area. Studies of additional streams were added to the program in October 1969. In October 1976, a reduction in the scope of data collection was made, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Fort Worth District, assumed financing of the data collection.
