Wetland and stream mitigation credits available include:
The Huntington in-lieu fee program (ILFP) operates in two service areas in east and central Ohio within the Muskingum and Scioto 6-digit HUC watersheds in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Huntington District. The Steam + Wetlands Foundation ILFP provides third-party compensatory mitigation for unavoidable impacts to wetlands & streams delineated as waters of the United States and waters of the State of Ohio. The ILFP may be used by permit applicants to satisfy the compensatory wetlands mitigation requirements of permits issued under Section 404 and 401 of the Clean Water Act, the Ohio Isolated Wetlands Permit Program (IWP, ORC 6111), and Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act.
For impacts to non-jurisdictional waters, the service area is as follows:
Compensatory mitigation of impacts outside the service areas can be considered by the permitting agencies on a case-by-case basis consistent with applicable state and federal regulations and laws, including 33 CFR §325, 33 CFR §332, ORC §6111, and Ohio Administrative Code (OAC) §3745-1-54
S+W’s ILF programs operate in two geographically distinct service areas in the 45,000-square-mile Huntington District in east and central Ohio.
