The Save Our Springs Alliance is an environmental services organization based in Austin, Texas, focused on safeguarding the Edwards Aquifer, its springs and contributing streams, and the natural and cultural heritage of the Hill Country watersheds, with particular emphasis on Barton Springs. It operates as a conservation and advocacy group, collaborating with local conservation partners to protect Barton Springs and the Edwards Aquifer. The organization originated in 1990 as a citizen coalition opposing a Barton Creek watershed development and evolved through the Save Our Springs Coalition, the Save Our Springs Legal Defense Fund, and was established as the Save Our Springs Alliance in 1997. It has a workforce of 11 to 50 employees and maintains a website at sosalliance.org. Recent activities include filing suit against the West Travis County Public Utility Agency in November 2024 over the condemnation of land in the Barton Creek Habitat Preserve, and the August 2024 appointment of SOS Environmental Attorney Victoria Rose. The organization reports annual revenue in the range of $1 million to $10 million.
