What is the definition of a “riparian area?

0

A. We often get questions about whether a project would fall within a riparian zone. To clarify, we are typically referring to stream buffers or floodplain projects. Riparian areas are the vegetated zones along streams and rivers and around lakes, creeks, and bogs. When riparian areas stay wet through most of the year, like marshes or swamps, they are also called wetlands.
