ExxonMobil Houston Campus

About the Program
The ExxonMobil Houston Campus, 20 miles north of Houston, Texas, encompasses 190 acres of forest, landscaped and wetland habitats with trails. The site is located adjacent to Spring Creek
and Montgomery County Preserve. The campus houses over 10,000 staff members, and the team regularly engages employees and partners in a range of conservation activities. In this region,
where lakes and wetlands were previously more prominent, the team actively works to improve habitat quality, increase biodiversity and raise awareness of local conservation issues.

Practices and Impacts

• The team manages the landscaped and forest habitats by removing diseased and hazard trees.
• The team continues to monitor 11 acres of wetland and lake habitat to support native forbs and trees. An aeration system is maintained, and plantings reduce sedimentation. The wetland area includes trails that allow employees to visit the habitat without disturbance. The project is part of a larger landscape-level plan to reduce water run-off.
• Sixteen birdhouses and duck houses are established in locations throughout the campus.
• Employees regularly maintain and monitor the boxes. Updates about the projects progress are communicated through the company’s internal social media.
• The team’s annual Earth Day celebration, led by employees, educates residents about campus sustainability initiatives, while conducting beach cleanups.
• A pollinator habitat created in 2016 allows employees to share their experiences with fellow employees through the company’s internal social media, further raising awareness of the importance of pollinator habitats.
