Trinity River Levees Breaking

Not IF but WHEN?

Another rainstorm and the failing levees, well, fail.

Combine, 30 miles east of Dallas, held an Emergency Meeting tonight. Below is the agenda.

Condition of the levee; imminence of breach of the levee; investigation results of the levee by engineers; and emergency management activities pertaining to possible evacuation, area of impact (both City and ETJ) if levee is breached, evacuation notification to citizens of Combine and in the ETJ, evacuation routes and procedures, and management of emergency services between City, county personnel, adjacent city personnel and State personnel.


Residents were told to have an evacuation plan and sign up for the emergency call list.

Are you a concerned citizen?

Have you been appalled by what you see on the "news" happening in the communities? Ever been disturbed by the lack of coverage or the lack of facts shared by the media? Who knows more about what is going on in your community? A reporter with a deadline or informed citizens? Have you ever attended a city meeting? Are you concerned with your current leadership? Ever written a Letter to the Editor that was edited beyond recognition? Or not printed at all? Let us know what's going on in your cities, help to educate your neighbors. The things taking place now are regional and affect all of us.
Exercise your right to be informed!
