Summary
The Turtle Bayou Protection Project will secure and protect into perpetuity approximately 511 acres of wetlands, riparian forests, and adjacent buffering forested uplands along the northwest shoreline of Turtle Bayou. This project will also help ensure the long-term health of these habitats by the partnership to be created between the Chambers-Liberty Counties Navigation District (CLCND) and the Galveston Bay Foundation (GBF), which will result in habitat management, education plans and activities to be developed by GBF.
