Inseparable from the management of a much larger area, and on this 
scale of management, there is little probability that the problems dis- 
cussed here will be taken very seriously. Problems arising within the 
wet lands, such as dredging and filling are much more likely to receive 
Serious consideration, since they may be resolved among a relatively 
smaller group of interested parties.
