<div style=''>Wetlands are lands that are seasonally or permanently flooded by shallow water. They also include lands where the water table is close to the surface.</div>
<div style=''> <br /> </div><div style=''><br /></div>
<div style=''>The wetland polygons are managed independently from other hydro data classes and may overlap water bodies or other hydro data.</div>
<div style=''> <br /> </div><div style=''><br /></div>
<div style=''>Not all wetlands have been identified and mapped. Active maintenance is ongoing province wide. The currency and accuracy of the spatial representation is variable and requires on-the-ground verification.</div>
