# [Brays Bayou Slope Repairs: A Geotechnical Success Story](https://www.hvj.com/blog/brays-bayou-slope-repairs-a-geotechnical-success-story)

Have you ever noticed how solving one problem almost always raises a further concern? This was no exception when [Harris County Flood Control Distric](https://www.hcfcd.org/)t sought to improve stormwater drainage in communities along Brays Bayou—and this is where HVJ Associates® Geotechnical Team’s latest story begins.  

It is a story of careful listening and commitment to our client, [Walter P Moore (WPM) ](https://www.walterpmoore.com/)to alleviate concerns for HCFCD and over 700,000 people who reside within Brays Bayou’s 129-square-mile (330 km2) drainage area.  HCFCD’s plan for additional detention basins would facilitate stormwater drainage from the heavily urbanized drainage area, but this raised further concerns over Brays Bayou’s pre-existing slope failures.  

Read how HVJ left no stone unturned to provide creative solutions to address the Brays Bayou Slope Failures. We listened--we delivered on our promises--on schedule--within existing right-of-way—with no impact on drainage capacity or surrounding communities:  [https://www.hvj.com/brays-bayou-slope-repairs](https://www.hvj.com/brays-bayou-slope-repairs)
