| Abstract | Long Description |
This is the Draft Environmental Impact Statement on the potential environmental effects of implementing the wetland mitigation bank certification rule. The comment period for the DEIS opened on January 2, 2002. Written comments must be postmarked by February 15, 2002. The Department of Ecology recently filed the draft rule for a state certification process for compensatory wetland mitigation banks. The purpose of the rule is to provide a predictable, efficient, regulatory framework for the review of bank proposals and the certification of environmentally responsible wetland mitigation banks consistent with existing federal guidance on compensatory wetland mitigation banks. The draft rule, Chapter 173-700 WAC, was filed with the office of the Code Reviser on December 17, 2001 for publication in the state register on January 2, 2002. |
