The Sabine River Authority of Texas has taken an active role in water quality matters since its initial operational activities began in 1954, and over the years has expanded to meet increasing needs throughout the Sabine River Basin. This commitment to water quality protection has evolved into the establishment of the present Environmental Services Division (ESD) whose duties and responsibilities include involvement in a full range of water quality and pollution control activities. The Environmental Services Division offices are located near Orange adjacent to the Authorities Gulf Coast Division. These facilities include a modern well-equipped physical/chemical testing laboratory. The Division is staffed with professionals and technicians trained in providing a wide range of water quality testing services. These services are provided in order to meet the needs of our municipal, industrial, and individual customers as well as those of each of the Authority's Operations Divisions. The Environmental Services Division is responsible for the Authority's water quality monitoring activities in the Sabine River Basin of Texas. These activities are coordinated with State regulatory agencies and also include the review and evaluation of water quality data collected by other agencies in the Sabine Basin. Further, Environmental Services Division staff conduct the assessment of water quality within the Sabine River Basin, Texas, for the Texas Clean Rivers Program. Tracking water quality conditions in the reservoirs and the streams in the Basin becomes more important to the Authority each year as the number and size of water users and wastewater dischargers increase. Additionally, the Environmental Services Division assists governmental entities, industries, and municipalities by providing them with water quality information to meet their various needs.
