Thompson Creek Watershed Protection Plan Meeting

The Texas Water Resources Institute (TWRI) will host a stakeholder meeting for the Thompsons Creek Watershed Partnership on June 30 in Bryan.
Community members, landowners and anyone with an interest in local water quality are invited to attend and provide input on the draft Thompsons Creek Watershed Protection Plan. The project was initiated in response to the creek being identified as not meeting water quality standards due to elevated bacteria concentrations and low dissolved oxygen levels.
This meeting serves as the forum for public input, which has been driving the development of a voluntary, stakeholder-driven watershed protection plan (WPP) for the Thompsons Creek watershed, outlining strategies that will improve local water quality.
The meeting will provide an overview of the project and the draft WPP for Thompsons Creek. The WPP is a voluntary, community-developed plan to restore and protect Thompsons Creek. It identifies potential sources of pollution and voluntary measures to restore water quality in the creek.
