Google "Richland Reservoir Texas" and it will be on the north east corner of the dam. It's right off HWY 287. 32.011664,-96.081104

Just stumbled upon this while snooping around your threads. I'd like to come too if that's okay and if it fits my schedule. Is this the place that was built as a wetland mitigation bank?

If you mean by "wetland mitigation bank" that the plants clean the trinity river water to make it much safer for drinking, then the answer is, in non-technical terms, yes.

They are supposedly either building or in the planning stages of one in Dallas as well.

Anyone is welcome to come, I just need to get a response from the place first
