Estuary Update
Through our weekly update, we share opportunities for collaboration, volunteering, and employment; through initiatives and planned actions that benefit the ecosystems and communities of the San Juan Bay estuary. These activities, tips, and information are for the benefit of everyone.
Environmental Protection Agency visit
This week, the San Juan Bay Estuary received a visit from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to finalize the programmatic evaluation of our organization. This evaluation is conducted every five years to ensure compliance with the actions outlined in the San Juan Bay Estuary Integrated Conservation and Management Plan (CCMP). The team toured various community-based projects in the estuary and, together with community leaders and organizations, witnessed firsthand the results of these efforts.

Estuario encourages you to download the Community Hurricane Preparedness Guide and use its recommendations this season. Your community's strength and resilience begin at home. This June, we continue to urge communities to recognize the risks of natural disasters and stay informed.
Take advantage of our information platform, the Estuary Virtual Community Center, where you will find vital information to prepare with your family and community.
We remind you that to learn about Risk Mitigation and identify the risks, conditions, and community assets in your community, you can access: https://estuario.org/mitigacion/
