Abstract: Wetland Science, Regulations & Experts: What Geologists Should Know about Wetlands

Barbara Castille

Wetland consultants have arrived at a narrow specialty of environmental consulting through a wide variety of professional avenues. Regardless of professional roots, the primary role of any wetland consultant involved with delineations, permitting, mitigation design, and the subsequent construction of wetland areas is to assist property owners by promoting responsible development that is appropriate to current wetland regulations.

Wetland experts know the regulations and can offer advice based on a sound technical evaluation of a specific site or situation as well as the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers standards. Wetland regulations are dynamic and change frequently so staying on top of the latest changes is the responsibility of wetland experts.
