A
Wetland Primer, Advanced: Field Evaluation & Permitting
Considerations for Design Professionals (2 hours)
This
2-hour online course is a follow-up to "A Wetland Primer
For Design Professionals" by the same author.
Although a basic understanding of wetlands--crucial for
architects, engineers, land surveyors and landscape architects--is
mastered in that first course, design professionals often
need a broader understanding of why wetlands play an increasingly
important role in site considerations, and how they are
identified. This course does exactly that, in a easily understood
series of steps. There will be a multiple-choice quiz at
the end of this course.
At
the conclusion of this course, you will be able to:
- Speak
with more authority about freshwater wetland delineation
- Be
familiar with important federal or state legislation that
must be considered during project design
-
Be exposed to the perils of ignoring wetlands during project
design
-
Understand the key technical indicators for inland wetlands
-
Speak with confidence to wetland scientists, as well as
to state and federal permitting authorities about resource
evaluations and potential project impacts
