Houston! Try this on for size. 1. Set up recycle center 2. grind all trash and make compost 3. use compost to rebuild medians and any low areas to restore soil fertility 4. Plant trees on every highway sides and medians, every single yard and office buildings, extra trees in all parks. (average trees drinks up to 300 gallons a day). Calculate Harvey flood volume divide by 300 and you will have a good starting point. Sell the compost to purchase the baby trees. The tunnel is absolutely useless. Besides you DO NOT want to weaken the ground where the flood will be. Remember, water weighs 8# per gallon.
