2. To rehabilitate the water-exchange door system of the artificial
lagoons in the Los Ebanos reserve.
3. To install drainage and additional water deviation systems.
4. To develop a wetlands management and maintenance plan for
the Los Ebanos reserve.
5. To develop a Monitoring Program of environmental parameters
(physical and chemical), flora and fauna.

In 1985a
series of artificial lagoons were made in an approximately 800
hectares area to create fresh water habitats to benefit resident
and migratory aquatic birds.
The importance of this project lies on the restoration of artificial
wetlands formed after an affluent of the Valle Hermoso irrigation
system, Tamaulipas.
The area has being the subject of salinity and sedimentation
pressures that affected the bushes next to the lagoons.
The water deviation system and its management program will help
conserve the lagoons as a permanent fresh water habitat for
migratory and resident aquatic birds, and the neighboring vegetation
as the true native flora that provide shelter and food to the
local fauna. |
