MICHEL MARTIN, host: Now, we're going to have a conversation about the power of words. The words are undocumented and illegal. In her first opinion on the high court, Associate Justice Sonia Sotomayor used the term undocumented immigrant to refer to individuals present in the U.S. without proper authorization.
Temperatures and precipitation vary among locations. St. Croix county of the Virgin Islands is classified as a wetland and h as an average mo nthly precipitation of 3.3875 inches and an average monthly temperature of 81 Â°F.
Wetland size and function: Large wetlands (>10 hectares/25 acres) with high wildlife values require wide buffers (>200 metres/600 feet). Small, deep, excavated (dug) ponds with little wildlife or hydrological value may only require a 3 metre (10 foot) buffer. A conservative rule of thumb is to have a 4:1 ratio of buffer area to wetland area (one acre of wetland=4 acres of buffer), however, ANY BUFFER IS better than no buffer!
