1993 Map of Whites Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1994

About this map

Whites Ranch and the coastal settlement of Sea Breeze anchor this landscape of salt marsh and industrial infrastructure along the Gulf Coast. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of drainage and transport, including the Intracoastal Waterway and the Devers East Canal. Significant energy production is evident in the northeast, where the Big Hill Oil Field and the Strategic Petroleum Reserve represent vital economic components of the region. Extensive water management is visible through numerous Pumping Stations, Tide Gates, and water bodies like Stanolind Reservoir and Spindletop Reservoir. Conservation efforts are also prominent, with a portion of the Mc Faddin National Wildlife Refuge protecting the sensitive wetlands of Spindletop Marsh. The boundary between Chambers and Jefferson Counties runs through this low-lying area, where bayous like Elm Bayou and Mud Bayou meander through the prairie.
