Texas Parks and Wildlife

Dow and Texas Parks and Wildlife agree the environment is a precious resource that must be maintained in the present, so future generations of Texans can also enjoy it. This unique bond provides a sense of pride and responsibility for both Texas' largest chemical company and the state's wildlife and habitat agency.

Dow participates each year in a celebration of environmental stewardship, the Texas Wildlife Expo. The Austin-based event in October draws more than 40,000 visitors to explore the wildlife habitat present in the Lone Star State. Many Dow employees and retirees participate to share in the accomplishments that are a product of this exceptional relationship.

Sea Center Texas is another example of the partnership between Dow and Texas Parks and Wildlife. Hosting thousands of visitors each year, this one-of-a-kind facility, which opened in March 1996, houses multiple aquaria and educational displays of the marine life of Texas bays and Gulf waters. The site is home to the largest red drum hatchery in the world used to produce larvae for stocking grow-out ponds and conducting research on stressed fish stocks from Texas waters.
