Regulatory Changes Open Market Potentials for Some Private Landowners

July 7, 2010

The EPA and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers issued revised regulations on March 31, 2008 governing compensatory mitigation for authorized impacts to wetlands, streams, and other waters of the U.S. under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. These regulations are designed to improve the effectiveness of compensatory mitigation to replace lost aquatic resource functions and area, expand public participation in compensatory mitigation decision making, and increase the efficiency and predictability of the mitigation project review process.

These recent changes mean expanding potential opportunities in many regions of the United States.  Do you have undeveloped property with significant river, stream or wetland assets?  Would you like to learn more about ecosystem service markets?
