Wetland Delineation
Wetland delineation is the scientific process of defining the boundaries of wetland areas. This is essential for ensuring compliance with environmental regulations, preserving ecosystems, and managing land use effectively. At Midwest Wetland Improvements, we provide wetland delineation services for landowners across Minnesota and Wisconsin, helping you map and manage your land’s natural resources.
Expert Guidance for Wetland Delineation
Our team provides accurate and detailed wetland delineations, helping developers and land managers receive regulatory approved wetland boundaries. We utilize current scientific methodologies and follow all regulatory standards.
What Is Wetland Delineation?
Wetland delineation is the scientific process of identifying, locating, and marking the boundaries of wetlands for regulatory and conservation purposes. This involves assessing the soils, groundwater influence, and vegetation of an area to determine if it meets all three criteria in order to be classified as a wetland. Hydric soils, dominance of hydrophytic vegetation, and wetland hydrology are the indicators we are looking for.. Wetland delineation is an essential step for compliance with environmental regulations, as it can influence land use planning, development projects, and conservation efforts.
Wetland Delineation Credentials in Minnesota and Wisconsin
Within Minnesota and Wisconsin, our certifications align with regional standards set by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ St. Paul District. In Minnesota, the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) oversees the Wetland Conservation Act. We have undertaken the Minnesota Wetland Professional Certification Program. Currently, Midwest Wetland Improvements holds the “Delineator In-Training” certification.
In Wisconsin, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) regulates wetlands. Although we do not possess the assured wetland delineator credential offered by the Wisconsin DNR yet, we collaborate with trusted partner firms to provide comprehensive, credentialed services.
