Wetlands

 

Wetland Delineations

Landowners who are planning a project with the potential to impact Waters of the United States should have a wetland assessment.

Project activities that create significant impact on wetlands may require a wetland delineation and formal jurisdictional determination from the Army Corps of Engineers.

 

Mitigation Banking

Where development causes unavoidable impacts to wetlands, compensatory mitigation offers a way to offset the degradation of wetlands.

Mitigation banks provide straightforward costs and permitting certainty, while absorbing environmental liability associated with alteration of the hydrologic environment.
