The Ministry of Natural Resources and Ducks Unlimited propose to make a log dam between the bot- tom of the marsh and Georgian Bay higher, to keep out of the marsh Bay water in times of a high Great Lakes level. And electric pumps would pump water out of the marsh. Dan Mansell, district manager of Huronia District for the Ministry of Natural Resources, explains, "A marsh is like you and I. They tend to age." Nutrients produced by marsh vegetation which is underwater stay in the vegetation's roots..

The water level at the marsh's edge will be lowered but not to the point that the marsh bottom will dry. Since vegetation is the first link in the food chain, flourishing vegetation will sent benefits up the ladder through the small organisms to the fish to the waterfowl, he said.
