UGRA Partners with Guadalupe-Blanco River Trust

The Upper Guadalupe River Authority has established a partnership with the Guadalupe-Blanco River Trust and the Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority to promote and encourage the voluntary conservation, stewardship and enjoyment of the land and water resources of the Upper Guadalupe River watershed.  The Guadalupe-Blanco River Trust facilitates the voluntary conservation of resources within the Guadalupe watershed.  This is especially critical in Kerr County, which is under increasing pressure from development resulting in the fragmentation of large ranches.  The Trust and UGRA believe that voluntary conservation and sound land management by private landowners are the keys to protecting and enhancing water quantity and quality in the Upper Guadalupe.  A UGRA appointee will sit on the Trust’s Board and the Trust and UGRA will work closely together.  Further information about the Trust can be found at www.gbrtrust.org.
