14 San Jacinto River Waste Pits Superfund Site Background Impoundments built in the mid-1960s for disposal of paper mill wastes. Partially submerged impoundments cover about 15.7 acres on the western bank of the San Jacinto River, north of Interstate 10 in Harris County, TX. Primarily contaminated with dioxins and furans. San Jacinto River Waste Pits added to the National Priorities List (Superfund) on March 19, 2008.

17 Northern Waste Pits Before Cap

18 San Jacinto River Between 1851 and 2004, 25 hurricanes have made landfall along the north Texas Gulf Coast, seven of which were major (Category 3 to 5) storms. October 1994 flood had peak discharge of 360,000 cfs (greater than 100-years return period); the river stage height had a maximum value of 27 feet above sea level. 10 to 12-feet of river bed scour just south of the I-10 bridge. The flooding caused major soil erosion in the flood plain and river channel, including the creation of water channels outside the San Jacinto River bed. The flood waters scoured the riverbed and banks, destabilized roads and bridges (NTSB, 1996). River cut new channel through Banana Bend: 510-feet wide & 15-feet deep.
