Abstract
The Mobile Bay National Estuary Program (MBNEP) was awarded an EPA Healthy Watershed Grant in 2018 to advance the strategic protection of healthy headwater habitats located within the Mobile Bay watershed. The Mobile Bay watershed contains 75% of the first and second order stream catchments that eventually drain into Mobile Bay, which are important headwater habitats that have large effects on the water quality and ecological health of the entire bay, estuary, and coastal Alabama waters. This presentation provides a video overview of the Accelerating Headwater Land Protection in the Mobile Bay Basin project and its achievements to date.
