Local ground conditions

Austin lies along the Texas Blackland Prairie belt that USDA describes as extending from north of Dallas south to San Antonio, home to the expansive Houston Black clay, the Texas state soil. NRCS also maps the Austin series across this prairie: silty clays with 35 to 55 percent clay, formed in residuum weathered from chalk of the Austin Formation, over soft limestone bedrock at about 29 to 30 inches. The City of Austin lists foundation repair under its Express Permits program when the work does not add more than 128 square feet of impervious cover. TWDB documents the 2010-2014 statewide drought and 2022 conditions that rivaled 2011.
