Guidelines for Conducting and Reporting Hydrologic Assessments of Potential Wetland Sites
Abstract
This technical note provides guidance on performing and reporting assessments of groundwater hydrology of potential wetland sites. Groundwater monitoring is an important and increasingly used tool for verifying the extent of wetlands on proposed project sites, and for determining whether newly restored or constructed wetlands have the hydrologic conditions appropriate for the wetland functions and plant and animal communities they are designed to support. These guidelines are intended to help project managers evaluate the adequacy of hydro- logic assessments provided by permit applicants and their consultants, and should be provided to developers and environmental consultants for pre-project planning.
