Realization of the importance of wetlands has brought new opportunities for creative stormwater management solutions. In many instances the scope of stormwater management issues creates the need to mobilize the efforts of several agencies to bring about the best solution. New funding has been developed to finance the increased emphasis on efficient, environmentally sensitive stormwater management.
