Delta residents concerned over planned wetlands restoration project
A wetlands restoration project in the Delta has provoked the ire amongst residents about its potential intrusion in the existing community and ecosystem. The Knightsen Wetlands Restoration Project, approved to begin construction next year, has raised concerns from residents close to the planned project that include what they say are no local public benefit, no flood control enhancement, and no public access. Residents have also expressed concerns about a lack of an environmental impact review, which residents say could identify potential public safety and health issues.
