What kinds of streams and waterbodies contribute to an RCD?
Perennial streams contribute to an RCD in all parts of Town; intermittent streams do so only for parcels platted after January 27, 2003. Ephemeral streams and man-made ditches do not contribute to an RCD at all. Some channels may appear man-made, being straightened, deepened, or lined, but these may be modified natural streams. These streams can also contribute to an RCD if they are perennial or intermittent, as do perennial lakes and ponds.
