Name: John Wedig
Title: Senior Aquatic Scientist with the Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA)
Job Description: John is a water quality expert with the Texas LCRA. LCRA is both a conservation and reclamation district. We provide flood control and we also generate electricity. The Lower Colorado River district extends from the lower ten counties, from San Saba to Matagorda on the coast. The LCRA also enforces a non-point source ordinance around the Highland Lakes. This encourages businesses to control their runoff from their sites, specifically during the construction phase, but we also work with the businesses to implement BMT's (best management practices) to help control the storm water runoff.
