I have previously submitted other comments (comment ID 67479), I have an additional comment.

I think that clearer policy and direction should be included in the OWES on how to deal with assess and classify man made features (like dug ponds in farming operations, older stormwater management ponds, etc.) that may exhibit wetland characters, that may or may not be in proximity to naturally occurring wetlands. This would include policy on features that may have been on the landscape for varying periods of time, in some cases potentially many years, possibly no longer used, etc. Methods to determin the origin of questionable features, etc. (e.g. air photo review, document review).
