The extensively revised, second edition of the Environmental Law Institute’s classic best-seller, Our National Wetland Heritage: A Protection Guide, is a comprehensive general reference for promoting the protection and restoration of wetlands by local governments, private citizens, conservation organizations, and landowners. Building on the solid base of the first edition, Our National Wetland Heritage: A Protection Guide, 2nd Edition consolidates the wealth of information available into a single, easy-to-use source.
With the increasingly critical need for innovative approaches that accommodate both wetland protection and economic growth, Our National Wetland Heritage: A Protection Guide, 2nd Edition provides concrete information on local wetland resources, how to set your wetland protection policies, new techniques that have come to the forefront since the first edition, and incentive programs that fairly and effectively involve private landowners.
