Join Debbie Segal for this informative presentation and learn how Sweetwater Wetlands Park and other constructed treatment wetlands successfully and inconspicuously clean water bodies, and about GRU’s plans for a new system – the Groundwater Recharge Wetland. The ecological, recreational, and ecotourism benefits of GRU’s Sweetwater Wetlands Park are wide-ranging and represent a triple crown winner for water quality, wildlife, and visitors. Because of Sweetwater’s many community-wide benefits, GRU has decided to construct a second treatment wetland, one that will be located on the west side of Gainesville and will be designed to recharge the Floridan Aquifer with cleaner water.
