Good afternoon John,
Thank you for reaching out to us and for your patience in my response. We can provide you with a statement of
availability for our current inventory, which is subject to change with all of the requests that we have now, but we also
have seven more new buffer/nutrient banks that will be opening the second half of this year that can also go towards
your request (to which we can provide you with an updated SOA).
With such a large request for credits, when do you anticipate receiving your permits for them? When would they need
to be purchased by? Our buffer credits are offered at $1.30/sq. ft., I can have the statement of availability to you later
this afternoon, if you have any questions please let me know.
Best,
Ashley
