About this map

Placedo and Dacosta anchor this industrial and agricultural landscape in South Texas, where the infrastructure of the petroleum industry is etched across the coastal plain. The map documents an extensive network of Oil Wells and pipelines concentrated within the Oil Field and the Heyser Oil and Gas Field. This energy-driven economy is juxtaposed against a complex water management system featuring numerous Levee structures and a Spoil Bank designed to control the flow of Placedo Creek and Chocolate Bayou.
