Tex. Parks and Wildlife Code § 32.154

(a) If a person owns a floating cabin that does not meet the criteria for issuance of an original permit under this chapter or if an owner violates a provision of Section 32.104, 32.107, or 32.108, the department may by written notice require the removal of the floating cabin from the coastal water not later than the 90th day after the date of notice. The owner may, not later than 30 days after receipt of notice of removal, object to the revocation and show good cause why the permit should not be revoked. Good cause includes:

(1) force majeure, including a hurricane or tropical storm;

(2) circumstances resulting in a change of criteria for reasons not attributable to the actions of the owner; or

(3) any other reasons that the department adopts by rule.

(b) A person commits an offense if the person does not remove the floating cabin during the period provided by Subsection (a) or such extended period as may be prescribed by department rule. An offense under this subsection is a Class B Parks and Wildlife Code misdemeanor, except that the offense is not punishable by confinement in jail.

(c) The department may assess a civil penalty for a violation of Subsection (a) of not more than $1,000 for each day after the notice period that the owner fails to remove the floating cabin. Each owner is jointly and severally liable for the civil penalty and the reasonable costs of removal and cleanup of the floating cabin and related materials at that location.

(d) If a person does not remove the floating cabin during the period provided by Subsection (a), the department or a person or entity authorized by the department may remove and dispose of the floating cabin and any associated personal property in any manner without further notice.

(e) Notice under this section is valid if:

(1) a person who owns a floating cabin has held a permit issued under this chapter and the notice is sent by certified letter from the department to the owner at the last address supplied to the department under this chapter; or

(2) as to a floating cabin that has not been identified and for which the owner has not been issued a permit, the notice is affixed to the floating cabin.

(f) The department is not liable to a person for the value of a floating cabin, or any personal property associated with the cabin, removed under this section.
