Hart Wetland is located in a residential neighborhood in Tigard.  The wetland features a small stream and 2 ponds.  In August 1989, 2.7 acres of the property was acquired by a fee title donation.  An additional acre was acquired from the City of Tigard in a land exchange.

Restoration and Enhancements

Restoration efforts have included restoring the stream to daylight by removing a culvert and excavating the ponds.

There have been several instances of encroachment in the upper part of the property.  Also, two tree blow-downs that have fallen into fences or yards and one dead 60' douglas fir tree was removed in June 2000.

Access

The entrance to the wetland is on a lot on SW Katherine St.  A naturescaped front entrance has been created, including a 4' fence and native plants.
