SUMMARY
The Director of Freshwater & Marine leads the Texas Chapter's water program; a comprehensive freshwater, coastal, and marine conservation strategy in the state.

Recent and major accomplishments for the Freshwater & Marine Program include the construction of two ambitious oyster reef projects and the launch of the Texas Water Explorer. The oyster reef restoration projects, a 40-acre reef in the Galveston Bay and a 45-acre reef north of Corpus Christi, help us get closer to the goal of restoring fully functional marine habitats in the Texas coastal region. The Texas Water Explorer is a robust online tool that centralizes information about freshwater in Texas and helps manage water in a way that ensures the state will have adequate supplies into the future. Texas is a national leader in oyster reef restoration as a coastal resilience and marine biodiversity strategy.
