Stan Wilson, ESC General Manager and Certified Ecological Restoration Practitioner (CERP), has been working to restore the riparian landscape along the Comal and Guadalupe rivers and their tributaries since 2019. This work is coordinated by the Edwards Aquifer Habitat Conservation Plan (EAHCP), which is funded by municipal water customers in the major counties within the Edwards Aquifer contributing, recharge, and artesian zones. Recently, EAHCP profiled our restoration work at Landa Lake in New Braunfels in their newsletter The EACHP Steward and discussed with Chris Newton, ESC Project Manager and Riley Wade, ESC Crew Leader, about the ongoing restoration work, the importance of native and diverse plant selection, and understanding and working within the conditions of the local ecosystem.
