Wetlands play a crucial role in Indiana. They filter and purify water, they reduce the risk of flooding, and they serve as critically important habitat for many threatened and endangered species.
Prior to European settlement, the Department of Natural Resources estimates that 24% of Indiana was covered in wetlands. Starting in the 1800's, Indiana's wetlands were drained to make way for farms and towns. In the last 200 years, Indiana has lost 85% of its original wetlands. If SB 389 is passes, 80-90% of our wetlands will be in jeopardy.
Help protect our wetlands and call or email your State Representative as soon as you can. Find your State Representative.
