California officials fill a complex of shallow ponds near the south shore of the Salton Sea in an effort to create wetlands that will provide habitat for fish and birds.
The project represents the state's largest effort to date to address the environmental problems plaguing the shrinking lake.
"It's proof positive that difficult things, difficult projects are possible," Natural Resources Secretary Wade Crowfoot says.
The lake's level has declined by about 13 feet since 2003 .
