As the City of Waco prepares to raise the level of Lake Waco in order to increase the City s water supply, the City is also making accommodations for wildlife.
Wetlands go by many names including swamps, marshes and bogs.
But no matter what you call it, wetlands are known for attracting wildlife. The process of creating a wetland will begin this October. Volunteers are needed to assist in an effort to transplant Texas native wetland plants into a five-acre nursery. In Spring of 2002, the plants from the nursery will then be used to provide transplants for the remaining wetland area. The wetlands will be located at the upper end of Lake Waco along the North Bosque River.
