About this map

J D Murphee Wildlife Management Area dominates this coastal landscape, showing the complex hydrology of Jefferson County in the early 1960s. The map illustrates a transition from the structured Intracoastal Waterway to the winding natural channels of Big Hill Bayou and Salt Bayou. The presence of several pipelines and a prominent Pumping Station along the Drummon Canal highlights the industrial water management and energy infrastructure critical to the Texas Gulf Coast during this era.
