Floating Wetlands
The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) experimented with design and construction techniques, as well as planting methods,
for floating wetlands through a demonstration project in the Las Vegas Bay. The floating wetlands were moved
and eventually taken out because of lowering lake levels.
This slide show takes you through the process of creating a floating wetland.

islands in the Las Vegas Bay, Lake Mead, Nevada.
