- BTNEP has worked to promote the wise stewardship of Louisiana’s estuaries and coast for more than a quarter century.

- From large-scale watershed water quality monitoring to coastal restoration plantings, citizen input, local capacity building, invasive species management, scientific monitoring, pollution prevention and reduction, and citizen education—BTNEP focuses on protecting what people value about living on the Louisiana coast: access; shorelines; fish and wildlife; heritage and culture; education; ecosystem resilience, and water quality.
