How to Use Wetland Bank Credits for Mitigation
This training provides information and tools for permitters and other decision-makers to use when considering permit applications that propose to use bank credits to mitigate for unavoidable wetland impacts. This forum will provide opportunities to discuss how local jurisdictions are currently integrating banking into their regulatory programs and how banking fits into their process. There will also be an opportunity to share information about how best to facilitate bank use at the local, state and federal regulatory level.
The training will address these and other questions:
-How does wetland mitigation banking work?
-What is a wetland mitigation bank credit?
-How are local governments involved in the wetland banking process?
-What is the decision process when mitigation bank credits are used to mitigate impacts under Section 404/401?
-How can federal and state staff better coordinate with local staff on mitigation bank review and use?
(6.0 CM Credits)
