Join H-GAC for the Next Clean Waters Initiative on Freshwater Inflows

The Galveston Bay estuary is a complex system of freshwater inflows from rivers, bayous and streams, mixed with warm water from the Gulf of Mexico. The tremendous ecological productivity of Galveston Bay relies on both good quality and plentiful freshwater inflow. But as our regional population grows and new challenges emerge, so does our need for greater understanding of freshwater inflow requirements and the development of strategies to meet those requirements in Galveston Bay. This workshop will be held on Tuesday, August 29, from 2 to 4 PM at the Houston-Galveston Area Council, Conference Rooms B and C (second floor).

Speakers from the Texas Water Development Board, Texas A&M – Galveston, and Trinity River Authority will provide participants with greater understanding of the function and importance of freshwater inflows, as well as updates on their respective research, projects, and local needs.

Following each presentation, attendees will have an opportunity to ask questions and further delve into the topic area. For additional information or assistance, e-mail Kathy.Janhsen@h-gac.com or call 713-993-2423.
