sections were planted with cattails and bulrushes in March 1996. Later in 2004, the two cells were converted into complete marsh. Several years of research was conducted in cooperation with the USDA- ARS station scientists at Florence, SC to understand the wetland system in removal efficiency of nutrients and pathogens. With our experience, we learned that these wetlands are efficient in removing nitrogen and partial removal of phosphorus and pathogens. We understood the bacterial communities and their functionalities in nutrient removal. In essence, swine operators can use constructed wetlands as pre-treatment before land application to reduce the excess accumulation of phosphorus in soil and reduce water pollution. Apart from our research activities, these wetland facilities were used for teaching undergraduate and graduate students. Also, these facilities are visited year round by school children to see the wetland ecosystem and bird watch. 12 Dr. G.B. Reddy
