A cooperative effort among the U.
S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the USGS BRD
and WRD, the project characterized
surface- and ground-water flows and developed a general
water budget of the site; determined how redirected water flows should be allocated to reflect pre-alteration conditions, including restoring natural functions of and processes in Marsh Creek, and avoiding damage to wetlands or property; examined how hydrologic and biologic management activities could augment the restoration of wetland plant communities; and characterized the changes in hydrology and wetland ecology resulting from restoration activities. Ongoing work is monitoring changes to ground water and surface-water hydrology as restoration projects are implemented. Report: Sweat,
