Program areas at BPA
Trash Free Bayous and Stream Corridor Restoration Programs: Work projects include removing trash from bayous, planting native species, and removing invasive plant species. These projects result in the restoration of the stream buffer that provides habitat and improves water quality. BPA also advocates for flood reduction projects that protect the waterways and enhance recreational activities.
Citizen Science: BPA is represented on several water quality committees, tests bayou water regularly using volunteer monitors, conducts monitoring projects, and advocates for water quality improvements in bayou waters.
Education and Bayou Appreciation Programs: BPA publishes a newsletter several times a year to inform the public on the many environmental and recreational values of our bayous, provides information on the importance of bayous to the public at Earth Day and other events, conducts media outreach, and sponsors an annual public symposium on water issues. BPA also develops paddle trails in association with the city, county, and Texas Parks & Wildlife. BPA maintains a web page with educational material on our bayou system.
