For purposes of this classification wetlands must have one or more of the following three attributes: (1) at least periodically, the land supports predominantly [[hydrophytes]]; (2) the [[substrate]] is predominantly undrained [[hydric soil]]; and (3) the substrate is nonsoil and is saturated with water or covered by shallow water at some time during the [[growing season]] of each year.
