§ 26-530. Establishment of the Wetlands Protection District.

Latest version.

The Wetlands Protection District is hereby established which shall correspond to all lands within the jurisdiction of unincorporated Fulton County, Georgia that are identified, designated and mapped as wetland areas by Fulton County Government. This map shall be referred to as the generalized wetlands map and is hereby adopted by reference and declared to be a part of this article, together with all explanatory matter thereon and attached thereto.

The generalized wetlands map and the established Wetlands Protection District do not necessarily represent the boundaries of jurisdictional wetlands within unincorporated Fulton County, Georgia and shall not serve as a substitute for a delineation of wetland boundaries approved by the COE, as required by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, as amended. Any local government action under this article shall not relieve the landowner from federal or state permitting requirements.

The generalized wetlands map is available in the department of environment and community development and incorporated by reference.
