MAINTAINING THE ECOSYSTEM SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE NATURAL RESOURCES OF THE DISTRICT

District projects, regulations, and land acquisition and management activities protect and restore the overall health of the ecological system. Hydrologic restoration projects in the District re-establish and improve natural systems such as wetlands, floodplains, native ecological communities, and aquifer recharge areas, which provide valuable water resource functions, including water quality treatment, water supply, flood water conveyance and attenuation, fish and wildlife habitat, and recreation.
