Matagorda Bay Mitigation Trust
Program Title: none
Note:
SAMs 1.1.1. - "...There is a need for a sediment quality survey to determine if pollution is a factor in the ecological status of San Antonio Bay. Contaminants would indicate chemical dose, toxicity tests would indicate biological response, and benthic diversity would indicate ecological response....The current proposal complements 2021-2022 MBMT Project 019, “Sediment Quality Assessment Survey of Lavaca-Matagorda Bay.” Together these studies will identify the potential role of pollution as a ecological driver in the two adjacent ecosystems...."
