Wetland restoration is possible, it just takes years and years, but is possible, and will cost real amounts of money.

I work in industry that deals with that all the time. I'm saying that compensation can happen off site (Creating a wetland elsewhere in compensation for habitat lost) in many cases when the original wetland is already beyond saving.
