The legislature of the State of Texas has manifested an intention to protect the public interest by establishing a centralized and coordinated method for planning and review of drainage and reclamation activity. The legislature has demonstrated such an intent by causing levees or other improvements and levee improvement district plans of reclamation and associated projects to be subject always to the supervision of a central statewide authority. It is the purpose of the Texas Water Commission pursuant to the Texas Water Code Chapters 5, 16, and 57, to implement this policy by the promulgation of these sections.
