Transmittal Letter: An evaluation of the Effectiveness of Mitigation Banking in Florida
Submitted by Minick_A on January 25, 2017 - 11:08am
One of the top priorities in this rulemaking effort is developing a more certain regulatory process that is applied consistently across Florida to protect the environment and foster a sustainable economy. A more consistent rule will be easier to use on both ends—easier for the citizens or businesses applying the Uniform Mitigation Assessment Method and for the agency staff processing the applications. The goal is to develop a streamlined, straightforward UMAM rule that is applicable statewide, but that still accounts for each region’s diverse ecological communities.
