Participants will learn how to identify wetland characteristics, classifications, and conditions for development restrictions. Participants will understand permit requirements for site-specific conditions and will practice using the Wetland Screening Tool to map specific sites. Contact information for state specialists regarding assessment and permit applications will be provided.
