2.3 Category III Wetlands scoring between 16-19 points generally have been disturbed in some ways, and are often less diverse or more isolated from other natural resources in the landscape than Category II wetlands.
The 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual and Regional Supplements organizes characteristics of a potential wetland into three categories: soils, vegetation and hydrology.
The Washington State Wetland Rating System categorizes wetlands based on specific attributes such as rarity, sensitivity to disturbance, and the functions they provide. These attributes are not comparable, and thus cannot be rated on the same scale. Only the functions are actually rated on a qualitative scale.
Ecology is the lead wetland regulatory agency within the state. At the local level, contact your city or county planning department. At the federal level, contact the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps).
Wetland Protection and Permitting Under these laws, it is illegal to fill or alter a wetland without a permit. The permit process is designed to ensure that any impacts to wetlands are minimized and mitigated. There are two types of wetland permits in Washington state: individual permits and general permits.
