Wetland area under restoration at Circle B Bar Reserve

Wetland area under restoration at Circle B Bar Reserve

Wetland areas of the Circle B Bar Reserve are returned to a more natural condition after the property was used for a cattle ranching operation. This involves restoring the capacity to retain water and repairing damage caused by the ranching operation's water management. At the top are yellow, floating barriers. To the left is a pumping station used by the cattle operation to pump water across the property.
