Description: http://www.twdb.texas.gov/surfacewater/rivers/reservoirs/smithers/index.asp. Smithers Lake is located about ten miles southeast of Richmond in Fort Bend County, on Dry Creek, a tributary of the Big Creek which is a tributary to the Brazos River. The project is owned and operated by the Houston Lighting and Power Company as the cooling-water supply for a steam-electric generating station. Water Rights were obtained by Permit No. 1812 (Application No. 1950) dated February 2, 1956 from the State Board of Water Engineers. The image is in the public domain because it is the product of Texas state government employees, funded by state taxpayers.
