Bog definition

Bog means wetlands which have the following char- acteristics: Hydric organic soils (peat and/or muck) typically 16 inches or more in depth (except over bedrock or hardpan); and vegetation such as sphagnum moss, Labrador tea, bog laurel, bog rosemary, sundews, and sedges; bogs may have an overstory of spruce, western hemlock, lodgepole pine, west- ern red cedar, western white pine, Oregon crabapple, or quak- ing aspen, and may be associated with open water. This includes nutrient-poor fens. (See board manual section 8.)

Bog means a wetland that is characterized by the formation of peat soils and that supports specialized plant communities. A bog is a hydrologically closed system without flowing water. It is usually saturated, relatively acidic, and dominated by ground mosses, especially sphagnum. A bog may be forested or non-forested and is distinguished from a swamp and a marsh by the dominance of mosses and the presence of extensive peat deposits.

Bog means, the Board of Governors (BOG) of the Institute.
