This grant, offered by TMACOG, is for the comprehensive Swan Creek River and Floodplain Restoration. Specifically, this grant is for restoring over eight acres of floodplain along Upper Swan Creek within the Maumee Area of Concern. The project involves acquiring a conservation easement and transforming riparian habitat, currently agricultural, into a thriving wetland. Restoration efforts include re-vegetation with native wetland and prairie species, creating a vernal pool, stabilizing stream banks, and removing exotic species. This initiative aims to significantly enhance local environmental health, biodiversity, and ecosystem resilience in the region.
