Delaware lawmakers propose Senate Bill nine to bolster wetland protections, creating a comprehensive program for tidal and nontidal areas. The bill introduces new categories like Exceptional Value Wetlands and outlines no-permit activities. Impacting agriculture, business, environment groups, and local governments, small projects may be exempt with conditions. A Wetlands Regulatory Advisory Committee and Delaware Wetland Screening Tool will guide implementation, aiming to balance growth and nature. Lawmakers debate, with some rules taking effect immediately upon passage.
