... 68 7.1 Introduction An objective of this guidebook is to address the costs and logistics of developing mitigation and life-cycle obligations. Factoring in all the project elements is essential to develop the actual cost of a wetland mitigation project.
From page 69...
... Costs and Funding 69 When banking or in-lieu-fee mitigation is proposed, the permitting effort itself should cost less than for permittee-responsible mitigation. The cost is lower because the application will not require the development of plans to advance the permittee-responsible mitigation concept.
From page 70...
... 70 Wetland Mitigation, Volume 2: A Guidebook for Airports 7.3.2 Permittee-Responsible Mitigation Unique situations can lead to permittee-responsible mitigation. In some cases, credits from mitigation banks are not available due to issues such as the wetland not being the needed type or HUC.
From page 71...
... Costs and Funding 71 7.3.2.6 Post-construction Although the intent of a mitigation site is to provide a natural system that can sustain itself once established, the site owner is responsible for its continued function to meet the identified objectives. If the airport does not find a long-term steward to transfer the site to, it will be responsible for the ongoing maintenance and management, including possible adaptive management.
From page 72...
... 72 Wetland Mitigation, Volume 2: A Guidebook for Airports 7.4 Funding Sources All mitigation costs are eligible for Airport Improvement Program (AIP) funds if associated with a specific AIP project according to Table S-1 of Order 5100.38D, Airport Improvement Program Handbook (FAA 2014)
