Aliso Viejo Wetland Reopens In June

ALISO VIEJO, CA — The city of Aliso Viejo will host a Grand Opening Celebration marking the completion of the Dairy Fork Wetland and Habitat Restoration Project on Monday, June 5.

The public celebration is at 10:30 a.m. at the southwest corner of Aliso Viejo and Moulton parkways, city officials said.

The city spearheaded construction of this wetland project that will treat urban runoff from 1,500 acres of mixed residential and commercial areas within Aliso Viejo, Lake Forest, Laguna Hills and Laguna Woods before it merges with Aliso Creek.

The project, which began in February 2016, also restored natural habitat to the area.

"The public is invited to join officials from all four cities in celebrating this innovative wetland that will significantly improve water quality in the region," the city of Aliso Viejo said.
