The pattern altitude is not published in the facts. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise.

The published remarks also note that runway 13/31 lighting is medium intensity and starts at low intensity. Pilots can increase it by keying the CTAF. The PAPI for runway 13 runs continuously. Large aircraft exiting runway 31 should plan to back taxi on the runway because of a taxiway obstruction. Clearance delivery is handled through Houston ARTCC at 281-230-5622. Expect a straightforward rural field with one runway and no published ILS support.
