Company Description
Mobile Bay National Estuary Program (MBNEP) is a non-regulatory program of the U.S. EPA and a Dauphin Island Sea Lab division. It is one of 28 nationwide programs working to safeguard and improve the health of some of the nation’s most critical coastal waters.
For more than a quarter century, the MBNEP has worked to promote the wise stewardship of Alabama’s estuaries and coast. To achieve this, MBNEP brings together community members, government agencies, businesses, nonprofits, academics, and other key partners to develop and implement a long-term management plan or scientific blueprint (the CCMP) prescribing specific actions to address the challenges of water quality, living resources, and community resilience of Coastal Alabama. MBNEP is guided by a Management Conference of more than 300 local leaders and stakeholders.
From large-scale watershed restoration to environmental monitoring, citizen input, local capacity building, invasive species eradication, pollution prevention and reduction, and citizen education—MBNEP focuses on protecting what people value about living on the Alabama coast: access, shorelines, fish, and wildlife, heritage and culture, ecosystem resilience, and water quality.
