Hi Daniel, Is the permanency attribute only used for tidal influences, or does it indicate intermittent rivers / lakes as well? I'm not really sure if there are such lakes in the prairies, so I want to make sure that they aren't imported incorrectly. Since you describe that the land use is different for tidal areas, is there a way to distinguish among them, or should this information be provided by the specification code?
