Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Underground Waters of Coastal Plain of Texas
Bramage. -the Texas Coastal Plain is traversed by many streams. The largest of these are the Neches, Trinity, Brazos, Colorado, and Nueces rivers. Of all these streams only the Brazos enters the Gulf directly, the others emptying into lagoons or bays. South of the Nueces the drainage is not completely developed and the entire area between this stream and the Rio Grande contains only two small creeks, the San Fernando and Olmos, which unite to form Capano Bay. The larger streams of the area are generally narrow and deep, with feeble currents. Near the Shore many of them expand into broad, shallow lakes entering the Gulf through shallow bays. While there are many streams in the Texas Coastal Plain, much of its. Surface is poorly drained, and in places water Stands in lakes or ponds through out the-year.
