The development of the <strong>Baldwin</strong> <strong>County</strong> <strong>Wetland</strong> <strong>Conservation</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> (BCWCP) has been a<br />
collaborative effort among many agencies and partners. First, the United States Environmental<br />

Development grant. In addition, the United States Army Corps of Engineers - Mobile District,<br />
Regulatory Branch provided staff support for the wetland validation component of this project.<br />

to provide technical expertise on all aspects of the project. The agencies represented were the United<br />
States Environmental Protection Agency, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, the <strong>Alabama</strong><br />
<strong>Department</strong> of <strong>Conservation</strong> and Natural Resources State Lands Division, the <strong>Alabama</strong> <strong>Department</strong><br />
of Environmental Management, the University of South <strong>Alabama</strong>, and the <strong>Baldwin</strong> <strong>County</strong><br />
Commission. Also, insight was obtained from members of <strong>Baldwin</strong> <strong>County</strong>’s real estate and<br />
