cumulative enquiries I am receiving

Shalom - I was interested by your comments, particularly this section: "I myself promoted constructed (or engineered) wetlands for several years but the experience down south (especially in the colder areas) has not been that positive notwithstanding some claims to the contrary except where the wetlands are HUGE, like 10% or more of the total upstream catchment area)."

Could you provide the sources for information regarding the experience in the (northern) US, so that I can investigate further?

Thanks very much

Tony
