2 What is a wetland? Definition (Federal Register): Those areas inundated or saturated by surface or ground water at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted to life in saturated soil conditions.
3 Definition (cont.) Wetlands Wetlands generally include swamps, marshes, bogs and similar areas. Wet meadows, sedge meadows, floodplains, fens, ephemeral (seasonal), etc.
4 What is a wetland? Three parameter approach (1987 Corps Manual): Hydrology Vegetation Soils Need all three!
5 Diagnostic characteristics. Hydrology permanent or periodic inundation at < 6.6 ft. or saturated to the surface at some time during the growing season.
6 Diagnostic characteristics. Soils Classified as hydric or possess characteristics that are associated with reducing conditions (lack of oxygen). Hydric soil (USDA) a soil that formed under conditions of saturation, flooding or ponding long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part
7 Diagnostic characteristics. Vegetation plants adapted to have the ability to grow, compete, reproduce and persist in anaerobic soil conditions.
8 Why important. Functions Water quality improvement, flood attenuation, habitat, aesthetics, biological productivity, etc. Values Importance of one or more functions to society

13 Board of Water and Soil Resources Mission: Improve and protect Minnesota s water and soil resources by working in partnership with local organizations and private landowners.
14 BWSR Focus is on: 78% of state which is in private land ownership. Local governments as the principal land-use authorities and the most connected to the citizens. Long-term conservation that cannot happen without private landowners and local governments being engaged and responsible.
15 Agency Organization 17-member board: - local governments (9) - citizens (3) - state agencies (5) 100 Staff in 8 offices Statutorily linked to: 91 SWCDs 46 Watershed Districts 87 Counties 23 metro WMOs
16 Select BWSR Programs: Local Water Management & Oversight: County, SWCD, Watershed District, WMO Re-invest in Minnesota (RIM) Drainage Assistance Grants: Wetlands, Shorelands, Septic Clean Water Legacy: Impaired Waters cleanup Wetland Conservation Act Wetland Banking; including Public Roads
17 MN Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) State law first passed in 1991 that regulates activities in wetlands (draining, filling, excavation). Contributes to goal of no-net-loss of wetlands by avoiding impacts and replacing them if unavoidable.
