On January 20, 2026, the Department adopted the REAL rule amendments, incorporating the August 2024 proposal and the July 2025 Notice of Substantial Change. The Coastal Zone Management rules, the Freshwater Wetlands Protection Act rules, the Flood Hazard Area Control Act rules, and the Stormwater Management rules were significantly amended by this adoption and courtesy copies of these rules, incorporating the amendments, may be found on the WLM Rules page.
