Dear EEA Friend: 

Welcome to our Fall 2005 Issue of Insights.  Everyone is familiar with the buzz words “wetlands creation, restoration and enhancement.”  As many of you already know, the Ecology Division has been busy doing just that for over twenty years, reaching every NYC borough, Long Island, New Jersey, Connecticut and beyond.  This issue presents to you two of the current projects happening right here in Bronx County and Richmond County:  The Wildlife Conservation Society is designing a Center for Global Conservation at The Bronx Zoo, scheduled to open Spring 2007.  Enjoy the spectacular view of restored/created wetlands, plants and wildlife with a day trip or two! In addition, we will show you a tidal wetlands creation happening at the Fresh Kills Landfill for the NYC Department of Sanitation.  Link below to the newsletter to learn more about these exciting and rewarding projects.
