2010 Land and Water Resources Conservation and Recreation Plan

Texas Parks and Wildlife Department has completed the process of updating the 2005 Land and Water Resources Conservation Plan with the Commission's approval on November 5, 2009. The 2010 Plan became effective on January 1, 2010.

The goal of the 2010 Land and Water Plan is to guide the agency in conserving the state's natural and historic heritage and in providing public access to the outdoors. It serves as a tactical document that guides planning, operational and budget decisions.
