St. Andrew and St. Joseph Bays Estuary Program’s
Comprehensive Conservation and Management Plan (CCMP)
A guide to Protect and Restore our Bays Together
The St. Andrew and St. Joseph Bays Estuary Program (SASJBEP) has worked with stakeholders from across the watershed to determine the priority issues that we will work together to address over the next ten years. The Comprehensive Conservation and Management Plan (CCMP) serves as a blueprint to characterize priority issues and a guide for implementing actions we can all take to protect and restore our bays together.
We want to know what you think! Download the plan and give us feedback either by emailing estuaryprogram@pc.fsu.edu or filling out the survey at the “Give feedback” button below.
