NBEP accomplishes this through a variety of projects, including interagency partnerships and community involvement. To manage these valuable resources, NBEP wanted baseline information on coastal wetlands and their buffers. With the aid of the University of Massachusett (UMass), University of Rhode Island (URI), and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), NBEP obtained an inventory of current coastal wetlands, the 500-foot buffer zone, and potential wetland restoration sites for the estuary. While knowing the current state of these resources is vital to managing the resource, an analysis of trends in these resources would help identify threats and put the presentday resources in a historic context.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e U S Fish \u0026amp; Wildlife Service\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1507804903\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781507804902\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/14\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 48\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.02h x 8.50w x 0.10d","brand":"U S Fish \u0026 Wildlife Service","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48623029158143,"sku":"9781507804902","price":13.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/coastal-wetland-trends-in-the-u-s-fish-wildlife-service-9781507804902","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
