This report summarizes proceedings of a workshop that addresses past & current thinking & activity regarding developmental pressures on wetlands and outlines how to minimize impacts on wetlands or wetland systems. It also provides some recommendations for future action to further document & act on wetland developmental pressures in Canada. Topics covered include wetland mitigation & compensation initiatives in the United States & Canada, fish habitat mitigation & compensation, the policy setting for implementation of wetland mitigation, and Ontario experience with a no-loss wetland policy.

Recognizing the importance of wetland protection, the Bush administration in 1988 endorsed the goal of "no net loss" of wetlands. Specifically, it directed that filling of wetlands should be avoided, and minimized when it cannot be avoided. When filling is permitted, compensatory mitigation must be undertaken; that is, wetlands must be restored, created, enhanced, and, in exceptional cases, preserved, to replace the permitted loss of wetland area and function, such as water quality improvement within the watershed. After more than a dozen years, the national commitment to "no net loss" of wetlands has been evaluated. This new book explores the adequacy of science and technology for replacing wetland function and the effectiveness of the federal program of compensatory mitigation in accomplishing the nation's goal of clean water. It examines the regulatory framework for permitting wetland filling and requiring mitigation, compares the mitigation institutions that are in use, and addresses the problems that agencies face in ensuring sustainability of mitigated wetlands over the long term. Gleaning lessons from the mixed results of mitigation efforts to date, the book offers 10 practical guidelines for establishing and monitoring mitigated wetlands. It also recommends that federal, state, and local agencies undertake specific institutional reforms. This book will be important to anyone seeking a comprehensive understanding of the "no net loss" issue: policy makers, regulators, environmental scientists, educators, and wetland advocates.

Regulations require that development projects in wetland areas restoreor replace lost wetland functions and values. But you can avoid or minimizeexpenses and repeated delays - this new book provides the most comprehensive, in-depth treatment of wetland mitigation options available! Written in plain English, not legalese, this practical reference provides explanations ofthe relevant regulations, and guidance on mitigation requirements and thepermitting process. You'll learn everything you need to know about evaluating, selecting, negotiating and implementing the various mitigation measuresavailable to avoid, minimize, or compensate for land use development impacts to wetlands. The book also includes helpful tables and checklists, numerous"real life" mitigation case studies, and several useful appendices. Chapters include: Wetland Functions and Values; Wetland Identification; Wetlands Regulations; Wetland Permitting; Wetland Mitigation Compliance; Wetland Mitigation Options; Wetland Mitigation Banking; Wetland MitigationBanking Guidance; Wetland Mitigation Case Studies. Appendices include: U.S. EPA, Army Corps of Engineers, and State WetlandOffices; Clinton Administration's Wetlands Plan; Funding and Technical Assistancefor Wetland Acquisition and Restoration; and more.

This document reports wetland mitigation banking experience to date. The Environmental Law Institute conducted an inventory of banks that supplemented information gathered as part of the National Wetlands Mitigation Banking Study conducted by the Corps of Engineers Institute for Water Resources (IWR). Additional information was gathered by IWR in a detailed study of selected banks. Wetland mitigation banking offers the potential for restoration and conservation of ecologically meaningful and robust wetland systems, planning on a landscape scale, and the harnessing of entrepreneurial as well as public funding to the task of wetland compensation. It provides practical advantages in monitoring and management of compensatory wetlands. Like other forms of compensatory mitigation, it presupposes a wetland policy that continues to allow the lawful destruction of certain natural wetlands. Its potential utility must be measured not in comparison with a ban on wetland conversions, but on whether it can improve upon current compensatory methods. It appears that it can.
