U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Galveston District

Lt. Gen. Scott A. Spellmon, 55th Chief of Engineers and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) commanding general, speaks with leaders from USACE Galveston District, Jefferson County Drainage District (DD) 7, and Orange County Drainage District during a visit to the DD 7 office in Port Arthur, Texas, Sept. 6, 2023. Spellmon and the USACE Galveston District’s leadership met with Sabine Pass to Galveston Bay (S2G) and Coastal Texas (CTX) programs’ non-federal sponsors to discuss some of Galveston District’s current—and largest—projects. The S2G and CTX programs are two of the Galveston District’s dubbed “mega projects” which involve large-scale storm and flood risk mitigation efforts to protect the Texas Coast against the hurricanes and storms prone to the region.
