Green infrastructure studies and implements nature processes such as management measures of the natural resources– in this specific case, management of the water.
Civic participation is essential to the Estuario de la Bahía de San Juan Program and our initiatives to monitor water quality. Time invested by volunteer scientists strengthens our efforts to preserve the quality of our natural resources. Thanks to the volunteers, we generate key information about the conditions of the water in the most important ecosystem to the economy of Puerto Rico, the Estuario de la Bahía de San Juan.
Solid or liquid waste that flows into the rain sewage system flows directly into the water without receiving treatment. Detergents used to clean garages or mechanic shops are common contaminants. 80% of the waste found in our waters comes from actions taken on dry land. The remaining 20% comes from activities on the water such as cruises and other vessels. Learn how to dispose of waste correctly to protect our waters.
The objective of the Water Quality Program is to learn about the condition of the quality of the water of the EBSJ and measure improvements on its restoration.
El Estuario de la Bahía de San Juan es una corporación sin fines de lucro 501c3 que diseña, implementa y realiza un seguimiento de las acciones de restauración para mejorar la calidad de las aguas y los ecosistemas asociados dentro del sistema del Estuario de la Bahía de San Juan y su cuenca.
