Pensacola Bay Watershed Community Web Site

Bay Area Resource Council & Environmental Education Coordination Team

This Web Site was created by the Environmental Education Coordination Team (EECT) and the Bay Area Resource Council (BARC), working in partnership to provide our community with a “one stop” location for information about our environment.

On this Web Site you will find information about the Pensacola Bay Watershed’s air, water and land quality as well as information about its unique ecosystems. The Web Site is designed to:

  1. describe our environment and the way we evaluate its quality;
  2. identify the major impacts to our environment;
  3. explain what we can do at all levels to reduce the impacts; and
  4. highlight the results of our efforts by both tracking key activities as well as actual changes in air and water quality through both “Real Time” and weekly monitoring.

We now invite you to enter the Web Site and arm yourself with the information you need to more fully understand our community’s environmental challenges. Our hope is that this information will lead to an era of partnership building in which local citizens, industry, business representatives and public officials, work side by side to resolve our areas environmental issues.
