Preserving Kentucky’s Wetlands: Why They Matter and How AJC Supports Development Responsibly

Kentucky’s wetlands are more than scenic landscapes—they are vital ecosystems that help reduce flooding, improve water quality, and support biodiversity across the Bluegrass region. At AJC Lexington, we understand the importance of balancing growth with conservation, especially as urban and rural developments expand into sensitive areas.

Wetlands act as nature’s sponge, absorbing stormwater and filtering pollutants before they reach streams and rivers. That’s why they’re regulated under federal and state law. Whether we’re supporting a local farm with a pond project or conducting a boundary and topographic survey for a housing development, AJC always considers nearby water features.

Our team works closely with environmental consultants and agencies to identify jurisdictional wetlands early in a project, helping clients avoid delays and reduce costs. We use GPS, LiDAR, and boots-on-the-ground expertise to document wetlands accurately and transparently.

At AJC, responsible growth starts with understanding the land. If you’re planning a project in or near wetland areas, let us help you navigate it with clarity and care.
