Wetland
From Conservapedia
A Wetland is an area that is wet due to a close relationship to a body of water or groundwater, or a land area that is flooded regularly. Wetlands support vegetation adapted for life in saturated soil conditions.[1] Frequently a centerpiece in Property Rights fights, a long running case, Rapanos v. US reached the US Supreme Court with a victory for landowner John Rapanos in 2006, limiting the Federal Governments reach on non navigable waterways and adjacent wetlands.[2]
Many wetlands are seen as reserves for wildlife by environmentalist liberals who want to stagnate economic growth by preventing development on them.
