Delineation refers to the process of mapping the boundaries of wetlands, while determination indicates whether those wetlands are federally regulated. A delineation establishes the extent of wetlands on a property, whereas a determination confirms the jurisdictional status. Both processes are essential for land development and conservation efforts. Completing the Approved Jurisdictional Determination Form is vital for obtaining the necessary legal clarity during these assessments.
