Treatment Ponds - Davis Wetlands

Our storm drain and waste water is processed at the treatment plant and then slowly released into the not so recently created wetlands. Each of the nine tracts is lower than the next, allowing the non-potable water to be gravity fed to the next tract. Two of the tracts remain flooded during the summer allowing the shorebirds and waders to use the tracts as a place to rest, feed, and build nests. The treatment ponds are a place to see an occaisional rare gull, avocets, black necked stilts, white pelicans, and various ducks.
