Our Projects

Texas Conservation Plan for the Dunes Sagebrush Lizard (TCP)

The American Conservation Foundation (ACF) is the permit holder for the Texas Conservation Plan (TCP) for the Dunes Sagebrush Lizard (DSL). This permit provides upstream, midstream, and private landowners/operators with regulatory assurances in exchange for proactive land management practices aimed at minimizing impacts to the DSL’s habitat.

​

Leon River  & Cowhouse Creek Watersheds Flood Mitigation Project

To help communities in the Leon River Watershed (LRW), Cowhouse Creek Watershed (CCW), and beyond, this project is developing advanced flood prediction tools and safety programs to improve early warnings, reduce damage, and enhance water planning. In collaboration with Texas A&M AgriLife Blackland Research and Extension Center, RRG Professional Engineering, the American Conservation Foundation (ACF) is working to assess flood risks, implement safety measures, and protect the region from future disasters.

Coryell County Community Wildlife Protection Plan (CWPP)

The American Conservation Foundation (ACF) developed the Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP) for Coryell County, Texas, to reduce wildfire risk, protect property, and promote ecosystem health. Approved on October 26, 2023, the CWPP enhances public safety by improving wildfire preparedness, response, and recovery efforts. Through collaboration with local governments, landowners, and emergency responders, ACF’s work helps build a more fire-resilient community.
