“Common goals” - CCA’s Mission:
“The purpose of CCA is to advise and educate the
public on conservation of marine resources. The
objective of CCA is to conserve, promote, and enhance the present and future availability of those coastal resources for the benefit and enjoyment of the general public.” – www.joincca.org

Cedar Bayou and Vinson Slough were opened on September 25, 2014, after having been sealed in the 1970s and enduring decades of negative impacts from siltation and low water flows
