    Vanishing Wetlands
    T
    According to the U.S. Fish
    Over the past 30 years, agricultural development has been responsible for close to 90 percent of our lost wetlands. Historically, wetlands environment has been perceived as a barrier to commercial and residential expansion. The scenario goes something like this: Developers move in, wetlands lose out. Throw in a steadily increasing dose of pollution and you've got yourself an already-unstable environment readying itself for life support. And things look to worsen before they take an upswing for the better. Consider this example: Since 1998, commercial developers have relied upon a loophole in the landmark Clean Water Act allowing them to disregard the need to obtain permits and destroy more than 30,000 acres of wetlands. Make a Difference Conserve water. Turn the water off when scrubbing dishes or brushing your teeth, take shorter showers, and water your lawn in the early morning or late evening.
    Contact conservation groups in your area so that you may better familiarize yourself with local concerns.

    Welcome to the Wetlands Web site!
    Here you will find guidance on local tools to protect wetlands. This website features: The article series was developed by the Center in cooperation with the U.S. EPA. What is a wetland? A wetland is an area that is regularly saturated by surface water or groundwater and is characterized by a prevalence of vegetation that is adapted for life in saturated soil conditions. Learn more about identification and classification of wetlands here - "What is a Wetland?"
    Why should wetlands be managed at the local watershed level? Upcoming Wetland-Related Events
    • Wetlands are indirectly impacted by uncontrolled stormwater discharges from adjacent or upstream development. Federal and state permitting programs do not regulate indirect impacts to wetlands; however, they can be managed at the local level through land use and development regulations. Impacts to wetlands can greatly affect watershed health.

    The Ballona Wetlands Land Trust
    Currently the Land Trust is advocating and litigating to protect the remaining 200 acres of the Ballona Wetlands Ecosystem. This last open space could not only be used for habitat, but also as a treatment wetland. This Natural Treatment Wetland could clean Ballona and Centinela creek before they reached the preserved 600-acre Ballona Ecological Reserve and the Santa Monica Bay. Our vision is not only ecological; it is financially viable.
    The Ballona Wetlands Land Trust is also a key player in the Restoration of the permanently preserved 600-acre property.

    Home About Us Sustainable Fisheries Protected Resources ... Search Through the combined efforts of eight state and federal resources agencies, approximately 880 acres of the Bolsa Chica Lowlands in Orange Country were acquired in February 1997 from the Signal Bolsa Corporation. Title to the property is now held by the California State Lands Commission. Funding for the acquisition came principally from the Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles. The eight state and federal agencies are now proceeding with the planning and environmental compliance processes which will be necessary in order to design and obtain regulatory permits for the Bolsa Chica Wetlands Restoration Project. The purpose of the Project will be to provide for the most ecologically appropriate restoration of the wetlands in the lowlands. If anyone has any suggestions, relevant information, or electronic images relating to the fish, other wildlife, or habitats of Bolsa Chica, please feel free to send them to Bob Hoffman

    The Ohio Wetlands Foundation, a non-profit (501(c)(3)) organization, was formed in 1992 in response to the regulated community's need to have a high quality offsite wetlands mitigation alternative. The mission of the Ohio Wetlands Foundation is to provide the highest quality offsite wetlands mitigation alternatives in Ohio by means of restoring, enhancing and protecting wetlands. The funds received by the Foundation for mitigation purposes are used for the acquisition of property; for the design, construction and maintenance of wetlands; for the construction of trails and interpretive signage at its sites; for the education of the public regarding wetlands functions; and the funding of research on wetlands. The Foundation's development of compensatory wetland mitigation credits follows the guidelines developed by a federal interagency task force and published in the federal register in 1995 by the Army Corps of Engineers and the US Environmental Protection Agency. Any entity wishing to use off-site compensatory mitigation must follow the rules and laws governing wetland impacts and must obtain a permit from the Army Corp of Engineers and/or the Ohio EPA.
