Wetland Designations. Where possible, wetland designations will be updated using the 2013 National Wetland Plant List (NWPL) provided by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. This list now available from the USACE NWPL website. The site provides downloadable lists in PDF and spreadsheet form, as well as information about wetland deliniation, regional lists, and archival lists.
