[Cheryl L. Greengrove]

City of Tacoma has a very good - ground truthed wetlands layer (done with one of my students and city wetlands biologist) - they share GIS resources with Pierce County - wetlands layer i know less about but they tend to have good documentation on their data layers. Tom Carlson - the new guy at in GIS - has the contact info for City of Tacoma & Pierce County. Sorry dono't have contact info. with me as i am away on sabbatical.
