Floating Barriers Used for Restoring Wetlands at Circle B Bar Reserve

Floating Barriers Used for Restoring Wetlands at Circle B Bar Reserve

Yellow floating barriers can be seen in this photo of an area under restoration at the Circle B Bar Reserve in Polk County, Florida. The land was previously used for a cattle ranch. This resulted in diminished water quality on the ranch as well as having a negative impact on the Peace River's water quality as water from the property eventually flowed into the river.
