Chief:

Your own Texas Forest Service should be able to get that requested information for you.

Another avenue is the Boulder (Colorado) City Fire Department. Contact the Wildland Fire Coordinator at 303-441-3350. That City and its County have produced an assesment system called "WHIMS" that answers your question.

Good luck!

This is the plan we use (with minor modification) to evaluate homesites in our neck of the woods.
