About this map

Industrial expansion and marshy lowlands define this survey of the Texas coast, where the Bessie Heights Oil and Gas Field dominates the landscape north of the Neches River. The terrain is a complex network of waterways including Anderson Gully, Cow Bayou, and the Bessie Heights Canal, which cuts through the wetlands toward Bessie Heights. Along the southern edge, the industrial footprint is marked by a large Oil Refinery at Smith Bluff, reflecting the region's mid-century petroleum boom.
