Habitat Mitigation Bank
The Skykomish Habitat Mitigation Bank (SHMB) offers mitigation credits for use by public and private end-users to provide advance compensatory mitigation for authorized impacts to wetlands and regulated aquatic areas. Use of mitigation credits from the SHMB provides a simple and cost-effective means of complying with all Federal, State and Local mitigation requirements for permitted development actions.
The purpose of the SHMB is to generate compensatory mitigation credits for projects that will have an adverse impact on the aquatic environment and need to compensate for those impacts as a condition of their permits or other regulatory requirements resulting from project impacts. Impacts that could be compensated for by the SHMB include those to wetlands, streams, essential fish habitat, critical areas and buffers.
