Case Study #3: Wetland Restoration
for the Delaware Department of Transportation

Case Study #4: The North Carolina
Department of Transportation Compensatory Mitigation Program
The North Carolina Department of Transportation provides compensatory
wetland and stream mitigation by three methods; (1) an in-house program,
(2) payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration Program, and
(3), a Full Delivery Program. The in-house program is comprised of mitigation
sites planned and constructed on properties acquired by the Department
and constitutes the majority of our wetland mitigation acreage. In specified
watersheds throughout the state, the Wetlands Restoration Program provides
all of the Department's compensatory stream and wetland mitigation at
a standard fee schedule. The Full Delivery Program consists of the acquisition
of compensatory mitigation that is planned, designed, constructed, and
monitored by a private firm on property acquired by that firm under
contract to the Department. Selected case studies of mitigation sites
from each of these methods will be reviewed.
