The Best Public area restoration in Lacey, Washington

Hawk's Prairie Reclaimed Water Ponds is a 40-acre park located at 3001 Hogum Bay Road Northeast in Lacey, Washington. The park is open to the public from dawn to dusk and serves the purpose of reintroducing cleaned water back into the environment. The Class A reclaimed water flows through a series of ponds before entering the recharge basins, providing a park-like setting for visitors to walk, view wildlife, and learn about reclaimed water at informational kiosks. Located in northeast Lacey, on Hogum Bay Road north of the intersection with Willamette Drive NE, the site offers free parking at a small visitor lot off of Hogum Bay Road. Visitors can enjoy the park's beauty and educational opportunities while contributing to the replenishment of groundwater with Class A reclaimed water produced at the Martin Way Reclaimed Water Plant. The water flows through constructed wetland ponds and gravel basins before mixing with groundwater, supporting streamflows and habitat for fish and other aquatic life.
