Section 38.610 BMC includes the wetland regulations for the City of Bozeman.

The City’s wetland regulations apply to both wetlands with direct hydrologic connection to “waters of the U.S.” and to isolated wetlands with no direct connection to a water of the U.S. and that exhibit positive wetlands indicators for all three wetland parameters.
