Restoration or rehabilitation of wetland systems and communities is an adaptive process. Before beginning a project, it is essential to have a good understanding of the dynamics and elements of a site, clearly defined goals, and identified desired future conditions. However, forces of nature and unknown elements of site can alter your well-designed plan. Monitoring, adaptive management, and long term maintenance become equally important elements and tasks of successful projects. Sharing lessons learned from our projects can help improve the success of our own and others' restoration efforts.
We will post new lessons learned from restoration efforts around the state when they become available.
