Topic: Navarro River


  
  Texas Treasures - Jose Antonio Navarro - Texas State Library
Navarro came of age during a time in which San Antonio was a hotbed of revolution against Spanish rule, and the scene of continuing bloody clashes between the Spanish army and Mexican rebels.
Navarro's contemporaries later said that he "trembled at the thought" of the enormity of the step he had taken, but he plunged into a leadership role nonetheless, helping to draft the Constitution of the Republic of Texas.
Navarro wrote articles and a book in which he set the record straight about the contributions of the Tejanos to Texas independence, pointing out that the citizens of Bexar and elsewhere were fighting for Texas freedom 25 years before the Alamo.

 Sustainable Conservation | The Navarro River Permit Coordination Program   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
The Navarro River Partners in Restoration (PIR) permit coordination program is a model public–private effort that encourages and supports local farmers, ranchers, and landowners who are improving water quality and wildlife habitat on and near their lands.
The core of Navarro River PIR is the watershed-based agreements entered into by local, state and federal regulatory agencies to the NRCS and the Mendocino County RCD.
Under Navarro River PIR, a cooperator receiving technical and/or cost share assistance from the NRCS or the Mendocino River RCD is allowed to implement the associated conservation practices without seeking individual permits—provided they partner with the NRCS and Mendocino River RCD and carefully follow the terms of the program's agreements.
