Wetlands are an important natural component of our Green Infrastructure.
Join Stormwater University as speaker Tom Dombrowski (Environmental Engineer at Prince William County, VA) discusses what wetlands are, the different types, and why they are protected (Clean Water Act Section 404) due to the important functions and values they provide us.
This session will provide an overview of the identification/delineation and Federal/State jurisdictional determination processes. If considered to be jurisdictional wetlands and waters, they are protected at a Federal or State level.
