A study of wetlands in The Dalles is underway.  The Governor’s Regional Solutions team is involved in putting together a regional general permit.  Port of The Dalles Executive Director Andrea Klaas says the concept is to look at all of the remaining undeveloped industrial land in The Dalles, and catalog where wetlands are.  Those results will be submitted to the state which will verify them, and this fall state and federal agencies will be brought together along with local stakeholders to see how development and mitigation can occur, with an end goal of allowing maximum developable land in the urban growth boundary and gives developers a clear picture of what they are dealing with.
