With its 55 hectares, the Boca Maule Wetland in Coronel is one of the most important natural ecosystems in Biobío. In order to prevent this space – which aspires to be a Nature Sanctuary – from being affected by pollution resulting from the industrial processes of yesteryear and exotic fauna that is not in keeping with its environment, the second stage of the “Pilot for Restoration and Education for the Conservation of the Boca Maule Wetland” began yesterday.
Specifically, the conservation work that is being carried out within the framework of the Environmental and Social Recovery Plan (Pras) of Coronel, will be in two of the 55 hectares of the ecosystem.
