Floodplain Protection Zones

To whom it may concern,

As one flies across the country, looking down you see mostly agricultural land with patches of native vegetation around rivers, streams, and other topographical depressions. The erosion and chemical content from fertilizer of run-off degrades these restricted, non-contiguous micro environments. Connectivity is imperative for biological diversity and species survival. Will you consider expanding floodplain protection zones to achieve safety, health, and ec0-benefits?
