Programs
1 program
Native prairie and riparian restoration: the headwaters has removed almost 4.5 acres of asphalt and impervious cover and replaced that area with native soil, hundreds of grasses, forbs, and trees in order to divert water away from the headwater springs of the comal river and filter through natural storm water management of berms, swales, check dams and vernal pools. Continual maintenance of the prairie and riparian area along spring run #4 of the comal river is necessary to control reintroduction of invasive species. In addition, citizen science programs help to monitor water quality and collect data on reintroduction of birds, butterflies, frogs, dragonflies, and other species attracted to the restored area.
