The Niagara Parks Commission was set to undertake another Niagara River coastal wetland restoration project at Boyer’s Creek beginning the week of Feb. 18, weather permitting.

The Parks, noting the work aligns with its role as the environmental and cultural steward of the Niagara River, said the latest project uses felled ash trees to mimic the natural environment, creating instant, small-scale fish habitat.

In collaboration with the province’s natural resources and forestry ministry, and Environment and Climate Change Canada, the Parks embarked in 2016 on a series of coastal wetlands restoration projects to reduce shoreline erosion and provide “essential fish habitat” at seven strategic locations in the river, the Parks said.
