Narrative:

When iah is on an east flow landing on runways 8R and 8L; final north (a) releases dwh departures that turn to a 290 degree heading and are shipped to tomball by dwh. These aircraft go immediately into tomball's (right) airspace with little prior notice. This procedure has caused many instances of issuing immediate climbs and turns to avoid unsafe situations. This new procedure provides terrible service to any turbojet or turboprop aircraft going south or west bound due to tomball not having the airspace to climb these departures above 3;000 ft for 30 miles. Recommendation: do away with the tomball cut-out in final north's airspace and have dwh ship these aircraft to final north.

Title: I90 Controller suggested that the new DWH departure procedure be modified to change airspace and initial sector frequency assignment because of current airspace restraints that require long altitude level offs.
