What is a wetland delineation?

A wetland delineation is fieldwork that establishes the boundaries between wetlands and uplands on a property. A wetland is an area of land that is covered or saturated with water, either seasonally or permanently. Wetlands serve important ecological functions, affecting water quality and biodiversity, and are therefore regulated by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. 

Have you used USACE’s Antecedent Precipitation Tool (APT)? With many USACE districts now recommending or requiring ATP data alongside jurisdictional reports, the Tool has an important place in the wetland delineation and monitoring process.
