As a result of their project, over 200 community members visited the site and completed the survey. Additionally, their project caught the attention of Senator Ken La. Valle and Town Councilwoman Jane Bonner. The Town of Brookhaven has now begun to plan on having the pond dredged to remove the invasive plant and restore this ecosystem to its natural habitat.
