Input sought on wetlands center

The Bolsa Chica Conservancy plans to hold a public workshop Saturday to get residents’ input on the Education and Restoration Center to be built in the Harriett M. Wieder Regional Park.

The Orange County Board of Supervisors approved an option agreement and lease in March with the conservancy and OC Parks. As part of the agreement, the conservancy will construct the Education and Restoration Center next to the Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve.

Possible plans for the facility include multipurpose exhibit halls, classrooms, laboratories for hands-on science activities, viewing decks and native gardens.

The workshop will take place on the center’s future site at Seapoint Avenue and Doral Drive. The sessions are from 9 to 11 a.m. and 12:30 to 2:30 p.m.

For more information or to confirm attendance, call (877) 265-7261 or e-mail info@bolsachica.org.
