Burnet County land clearing from pasture to lakeshore

01

Keep drainage paths open

Burnet County's floodplain guidance covers development such as grading and fill in mapped hazard areas and warns against debris obstructing streams, ditches, and culverts. Bring the survey and proposed earthwork to Development Services, and show where cleared material will go.

02

Treat exposed Lake Buchanan lakebed as a separate job

LCRA distinguishes vegetation cutting that leaves lakebed sediment undisturbed from work that pushes, drags, or digs. It also addresses property boundaries and removal of cleared material. For shoreline work, describe the method to LCRA and confirm the required notice or authorization before starting.

CHOOSE THE METHOD AFTER THE GOAL

Which clearing approach fits?

Open a trail, prepare a vegetation footprint, or retain selected trees. The service depends on the result you need and the actual ground conditions.

BEFORE WE GET STARTED

Good questions.
Straight answers.

Can brush be left in an exposed lakebed?

LCRA's guidance calls for cleared vegetation to be removed from the lakebed and properly disposed of. Include that handling in the shoreline scope.

Does mowing shoreline vegetation authorize grading the same area?

No automatic conclusion follows. Sediment disturbance is a separate review question under LCRA's guidance; show the proposed method and boundaries.
