What is the National Wetland Inventory?: The National Wetland Inventory is a map of areas that may be possible wetlands that have been created by the National Army Corps of Engineers. Any construction activity within these areas will require a "Wetland Specialist" to survey the area and determine if wetlands are present before construction can begin. If actual wetlands are present and disturbed then the National Army Corp of Engineers reserves the right to restore these or other wetlands at the expense of the developer.
