Water Quality
Texas
Parks and Wildlife Department works with local, state and federal agencies
to ensure that the needs of
fish,
wildlife, and aquatic resources
are considered in
water quality planning and permitting activities at both statewide and
local levels. A department-wide Water Quality Team, consisting primarily
of staff from the Inland and Coastal Fisheries divisions, coordinates
review, assessment and response to a wide range of water quality issues.
