quote:

The marshland was transformed into dry pastureland in the mid 1950's by constructing continuous dikes and pumping out the water. Deterioration and loss of the perimeter levees in recent years has converted the entire area into a shallow, open water lake with a few small marsh islands. This project will convert areas of open water back to vegetated marsh through the construction of earthen terraces.
