a single national manual is unable to consider regional differences in 
climate, geology, soils, hydrology, plant, and animal communities, and 
other factors that are important to the identification and functioning 
of wetlands. The wetland indicators and guidance provided in the 
regional supplements are designed to be used in combination with the 
Corps Manual to identify wetland waters of the United States.
