High Water Rescue Section
Precinct 4 has personnel and equipment dedicated to high water rescue in the event of flooding such as that which occurred during the April 2016 flood of North Harris County and Hurricane Harvey. Located at the High Water Rescue and Command Center facility are two 2-ton military style transport trucks, two rescue boats and a Humvee capable of navigating high water for rescue purposes. The deputies assigned to operate this equipment have received special training from the U.S. Coast Guard and other providers to better prepare them to perform rescue services.
