A spokesperson for Camp Mystic and its owner's family cannot confirm whether flash flood emergency alerts reached personnel on July 4.

Camp Mystic's executive director began evacuating campers approximately 45 minutes after the National Weather Service issued a "life-threatening flash flooding" alert.

The data also highlights critical risks in other areas along the Guadalupe River in Kerr County, and nationwide as many Americans have a flood risk they are not aware of.

Texas flood at Camp Mystic prompts summer camps to enhance weather monitoring and communication tools as more camps seek accreditation for improved safety standards.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency included Camp Mystic in a "Special Flood Hazard Area" in its National Flood Insurance map for Kerr County, Texas, in 2011.

Camp Mystic owners successfully appealed to the Federal Emergency Management Agency to redesignate some buildings that had been considered part of a flood-hazard zone.

Camp Mystic’s co-owner only started evacuating campers more than 45 minutes after getting an emergency alert about the “life-threatening” flash floods.

The director of Camp Mystic waited more than an hour after receiving a life-threatening flood alert before beginning to evacuate campers asleep in their cabins, his family confirmed through a spokesman.

"She was recovered in the Kerrville area," Abbott said in a statement on social media. The deadly flooding over the Fourth of July weekend killed at least 136 people, including dozens of girls at Camp Mystic, along the Guadalupe River, according to officials.
