Wetland Program Questions and Answers PDF icon
Governor Jennifer M. Granholm's 2010 budget has proposed to eliminate funding for the Wetlands Program in light of the severe economic challenges facing the state. This proposal would relinquish responsibility for wetland management in Michigan to the federal government. For this proposal to be finalized, the Michigan Legislature would need to repeal Part 303, Wetlands Protection, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (NREPA). The DEQ has received questions regarding many aspects of the state and federal Wetland Programs as this proposal is being evaluated. This Question and Answer document addresses questions received by the DEQ regarding many aspects of the state and federal wetland programs.
