Based on the results obtained in the diagnostic-prognosis section and the objectives set, management strategies and specific actions were established to conserve, restore and regulate public use in the wetland. To achieve its objectives, the program has five management strategies: zoning, conservation, regulation of public use, environmental education and signaling. In addition, strategic actions were proposed, whose purpose is to ensure the creation, development and operation of each of the specific actions contained in the five management strategies. Each program had lines of action and specific activities that ensure the maintenance of ecological processes and ecosystem services provided by the ecosystem. Finally, a section called Instrumental Level was elaborated, describing the legal, administrative, economic and social participation instruments that ensure the operation and implementation of the program. Also, a model of indicators for the evaluation of the actions and goals was developed in the section Strategic Level.
