Abstract

This case study evaluates whether a Wetland Conservation Easement is the best tool to assure wetland protection in Veneta, Oregon. To research the issues, an extensive literature review was conducted, and ten personal interviews were completed with a variety of people who work with, or are interested in wetlands. In addition, one interview was completed with an electronic mail response. Based on the findings of this study, Wetland Conservation Easements should be implemented in the Veneta area as they would facilitate wetland protection there and provide numerous benefits to the stakeholders that are involved.
