Join us on November 11, 2026, from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM (ET) for an educational Dudes in Development Indianapolis Lunch & Learn hosted by Lennar at PARC Amenity Center.
This session, “Wetlands & Waters of the U.S.: Impacts on Development,” will feature Marc Woernle, PWS, LEED AP, Principal Ecologist at Meristem, and will explore how wetlands and regulated waters can influence site planning, development costs, and project timelines.
The discussion will provide a practical look at wetland delineation, jurisdictional determinations, permitting requirements, and mitigation strategies, helping developers better understand how these considerations can impact buildable acreage, lot yield, and project approvals.
Attendees will gain insight into:
• Identifying wetlands and regulated waters during due diligence
• Understanding federal and state jurisdictional requirements
• Navigating Section 404/401 permitting and mitigation processes
• How wetlands can impact site design, budgets, and lot yield
• Planning ahead to reduce permitting delays and development risks
