BORDERLANDS WILDLIFE PRESERVE
Pond Restoration
In addition to re-compacting the bottom of the pond, the pond was recontoured and the edge was roughened to create a variety of depths and habitats for riparian flora and fauna. Once we fence the pond off from current livestock, we will also conduct a large revegetation effort to restore sacaton flats and riparian habitat to the area.

Pond restoration began with the layered compaction of existing clay to create a water-tight, natively-sourced liner for the pond.
