IN A NUTSHELL

Texas Stream Team is a network of trained volunteers and supportive partners working together to gather information about the natural resources of Texas and to ensure that information is available to all Texans.  Volunteers are trained to collect quality-assured information that can be used to make environmentally sound decisions.  Established in 1991, Texas Stream Team (formerly Texas Watch) is administered through a cooperative partnership between Texas State University, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). 

Currently, hundreds of Texas Stream Team volunteers collect water quality data on rivers, streams, wetlands, bays, bayous, and estuaries across Texas.
