Juniper Creek Headwaters Preserve

juniper Creek Headwaters Preserve Mitigation Area / Apalachicola River and Bay Watershed / Bay County / Legacy ID – UWRMP 5.5.7

The 27.66-acre± Anders parcel (Juniper Creek Headwaters Preserve) was acquired in 2006 by the Bay County Conservancy with NWFWMD mitigation funding to offset wetland impacts associated with road work on SR 73 (from SR 71 north to SR 20) in Calhoun County.  A recorded conservation easement provides legal guarantees that the site will be preserved in a natural state in perpetuity.  This acquisition added to 10 acres along Juniper Creek already protected by the Bay County Conservancy.
