Natural Resources

The mission of the Natural Resources program is to provide data that inform Endangered Species Act (ESA) decisions and voluntary conservation efforts. To support this mission, the program administers state funds to contract with Texas public universities to research species of interest, including candidate, threatened and endangered species. The final research reports and data are publicly accessible, and used by natural resources managers, local governments, businesses and scientists. Private landowner information is protected by the Comptroller’s office and its contractors in compliance with Texas Government Code §403.454.
