The Gulf of Mexico Alliance is a partnership of the states of Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas, with the goal of significantly increasing regional collaboration to enhance the ecological and economic health of the Gulf of Mexico. The five U.S. Gulf States have identified six initial priority issues that are regionally significant and can be effectively addressed through increased collaboration at local, state, and federal levels:
- Water Quality for Healthy Beaches and Shellfish Beds;
- Wetland and Coastal Conservation and Restoration;
- Environmental Education;
- Identification and Characterization of Gulf Habitats;
- Reducing Nutrient Inputs to Coastal Ecosystems; and
- Coastal Community Resiliency
This Web site is intended to be the central location for the public to learn about the Gulf of Mexico Alliance, what it does, and who its partners are. It also provides information about the Alliance priority issues, event announcements, and funding opportunities.
