A great question - I've wondered about these codes too.
Tim,
For
mw = mitigated wetland (east side of road)
ww = western wetland (west side of road)
wr = wetland road (not open to the public)
Presumably, the road is the wetland road, not the entrance road? And which
side is which (this I know I should google) - which of mw and ww is closer
to the beach?
Thanks both for the question and answer,
Richard Edden, Baltimore, MD.
