The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Jacksonville District, has made available the Winsberg Farm Wetlands Restoration Project Draft Project Implementation Report/Environmental Assessment (PIR/EA) for public review and comment. The 45-day comment period has ended.

The project is an ecosystem restoration project that is part of the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP). It will provide aquatic wildlife habitat through the creation of 114 acres of wetlands using treated reclaimed municipal wastewater. The treated wastewater will be returned to the natural system rather than being lost to deep-well injection, improving aquifer recharge and increasing the spatial extent of wetlands in the area. The first part of the project (72 acres) has been constructed by Palm Beach County, the local sponsor, and has been named Green Cay Wetlands.
