Pilot Program Advisors Group

The Advisors Group includes representatives from:

Local, state, and federal agencies
Conservation and environmental interests
Mitigation bankers
Agriculture and business communities.

The Advisors Group assisted Ecology in the implementation of the Wetland Banking Pilot Program (Pilot Program) by providing unique perspectives and input that helped Ecology identify opportunities for improvements to the Pilot Program. Additionally, the Advisors Group helped Ecology identify potential revisions to the draft wetland mitigation banking rule.

The Advisors Group reconvened in October 2006 to discuss and provide input and recommendations on feedback submitted regarding the Pilot Program. View the meeting schedule.

With input from the Advisors Group, Ecology continued to improve the Pilot Program by creating resource documents that clarified various aspects of the wetland banking program and the bank certification process.
