When developing a plan to restore or modify a wetland within the Pacific Northwest of the United States (PNW), land managers must consider all of the potential ecological impacts, including the unintended production of mosquitoes which can adversely impact the health of people and wildlife in the area. Case studies in this article highlight mitigation activities conducted in cooperation with local mosquito control professionals for water conveyances in the states of Washington and Oregon that effectively minimize production of mosquitoes in managed wetlands. Communicating with mosquito control professionals early in the wetland restoration planning process can save valuable time and resources if the restored wetland becomes an ideal breeding site for pestiferous mosquitoes. By preventing unintentional mosquito production, resources that would be spent controlling mosquitoes and responding to public health concerns post restoration could be redirected towards achieving the overall mission of the wetland restoration. The authors will demonstrate how mosquito control professionals and wetland managers worked cooperatively to achieve mutually-beneficial results, while complying with all local, state, and federal regulations. The following broad steps for a wetland restoration project are recommended: (1) Create a long-term vision for the project; (2) Build a team of collaborators and gather stakeholders; (3) Outline the regulatory guidelines; (4) Prepare required planning documents/acquire permits; (5) Conduct project, while monitoring (target and non-target) impacts including mosquitoes; and (6) Periodically review environmental impacts.

在制定恢复或改造美国太平洋西北部 (PNW) 湿地的计划时，土地管理者必须考虑所有潜在的生态影响，包括可能对人类和野生动物健康产生不利影响的蚊子的意外产生。该地区。本文中的案例研究重点介绍了与华盛顿州和俄勒冈州当地蚊子控制专业人员合作进行的缓解活动，以有效减少管理湿地中蚊子的产生。如果恢复的湿地成为有害蚊子的理想繁殖地，那么在湿地恢复规划过程的早期与蚊子控制专业人员沟通可以节省宝贵的时间和资源。通过防止无意中产生蚊子，用于控制蚊子和应对恢复后公共卫生问题的资源可以重新用于实现湿地恢复的总体任务。作者将展示蚊子控制专业人员和湿地管理者如何合作以实现互惠互利的结果，同时遵守所有地方、州和联邦法规。建议湿地恢复项目采取以下主要步骤： (1) 为项目制定长期愿景；(2) 建立合作者团队，聚集利益相关者；(3) 概述监管指南；(4) 准备所需的规划文件/取得许可证；(5) 开展项目，同时监测（目标和非目标）影响，包括蚊子；(6) 定期审查环境影响。
