EEP recently proposed revisions to the fee schedule for wetland and stream mitigation as a means of allowing the program to generate
revenue commensurate with our project implementation costs. Although the revision was passed by the Environmental Management
Commission and Rules Review Commission, implementation of the revision has been delayed due to administrative rules regarding
comment submittals.. Per established protocols for rule-making, the fee revision must now be considered during the next legislative
session beginning in May 2008. Until that time, EEP has developed a strategy that considers the financial implications to the program
for new requests to access the In-Lieu Fee Program and has determined that we are unable to provide your mitigation as requested.
If you want to resubmit your request form at a later time, EEP will reconsider the request in the future. We anticipate updating our
strategy as new data and opportunities become available. EEP is accepting requests in some areas and will consider all new requests
on a case by case basis.
Thank you for your interest in our program. If you have any questions or need additional information on other mitigation options,
please contact Kelly Williams at (919) 716-1921.
