I would like to submit a comment regarding the Draft City of Bozeman Wetland and Watercourse Regulations, specifically Section38.220.130, item #2:“If a wetland or watercourse is present or adjacent to the property, a wetland and watercourse delineation report must be submittedto the city.” Comment:Requiring a delineation report for wetlands or watercourses that are merely adjacent to a property may present practical challenges.In many cases, it may be difficult, or even impossible, for a landowner to obtain permission from neighboring property owners toaccess their land for delineation purposes. Therefore, I recommend that the regulation clarify that landowners are only responsiblefor delineating aquatic features located within the boundaries of their own property. Thank you for the opportunity to provide input. Sincerely,Christine Pearcy
