the factors discussed below when determining the acceptabihty of appropriate and practicable mitigation necessary to uffsi-t adserse effects on die aquatic em iroriment that are more than minimal (a) The project must be designed and constructed to avoid and mmm ze adverse effects to waters of the US to die maximum extent practicable at the project site(I e,on site) -9- I i f (b) Mitigation in all its forms(avoiding nummrztng,rectifying,reducing or compensating)w ill be required to the extent necessary to ensure that the adverse effects to the aquatic envuonmcnt are minimal (e) Compensatory mitigation at a❑ummum one-for-one ratio will be required for all wetland impacts requiring a PCN unless the District Engineer determines in writing that some other form of nu0gation would be more envirommentalhv appropriate and provides a project-specific waiver ofthis requirement Consistent with National policy,the District Engineer will establish a preference for restoration of wetlands as compensatory mitigation,with preservation used only in exceptional circumstances (d) Compensatory mitigation(i e,replacement or substitution of aquatic resources for those compacted)will not be used to increase the acreage losses allowed by the acreage limns of some of the NWPs For example,Ii4-acre of wetlands cannot be created to change a 314-acre loss of wetlands to a 1/2-acre loss associated with NWI?39 verification Howe%er,1,2-acre of created wetlands can be used to reduce the impacts of a 1/2-acre loss of wetlands to the mnmmum impact Iet el in order to meet the nununal impact requirement associated with NWPs (e) To be practicable,the mitigation must be available and capable of being done considering costs,existing technology,and logistics in light of the ocerali project purposes Examples of n rt gatnon that may be appropriate and practicable include but are not imated to reducing the size of the project,establishing and maintaining wetland or upland yebetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams,and replacing losses of aquatic resource functions and values by creating,restoring,enhancing,or presening similar functions and values,preferably in the same watershed (f) Compensatory mitigation plans for projects in or near streams or other open waters will normally include a requirement for the establishment maintenance and legal protection it g,easements,deed reslTncuone)of vegetated buffers to open waters to many cases %egetaled buffers will be the only compensatory mitgation required beaetated buffers should consist of native species The width of the yebetated buffers required will address documented water quality or aquatic habitat loss concerns Normally,the vegetated buffer will be 2i to 50 feel wide on each side of the stream,but the District Engineers may require slighth wider vegetated buffers to address documented water quality or habitat loss concerns lb here both wetlands and open waters exist on the project site the Corps will determine the appropriate compensatory mitigation to g,stream buffers or wetlands compensation)based on what is best for the aquatic em nronment on a w aiershed basis In cases w here vegetated buffers are determined to be the most appropriate form of compensatory mitigation the District Eagmecr may wane or reduce the requirement to proccodc.etlaod compensatory mitigation for wetland compacts (g) Compensatory mitigation proposals submitted with the"notification"maybe either conceptual or detailed If conceptual plans are ppm,ed under the verification,then the Corps will condition the verification to require detailed plans be subrmmed and approved by the Corps prior to conshm.tion of the authorized aeuyny in waters of the US (h) Permeates may propose the use of mitigation bands,to-lieu fee arrangements or separate activity-specific compensatory mitigation In all cases thin require compensatory mitigation,(fine mitigation provisions will specify the party responsible for accomplishing and'or complying with the mitigation plan 20 Spawning Areas Actn iies including strictures and work in navigable waters of the US or discharges of dredged or fill material in spaw nmg areas during spawning seasons must be avoided to the maximum extent practicable Activates that result in the physical destruction(e g,excav ale,fill,or smother downstream by substantial turbidity)of an important spawning area are not authorized 21 Management of Water Flows To the maximum extent practicable,the activity must be designed to maintain preeoms ,tion downstteam flow conditions(e g location capacity,and flow rates) Furthermore,the activity must not permanently restrict or unpedc the passage of normal or expected high flows(unless the primary purpose of the fill Is to impound waters)and the structure or discharge of dredged or fill material must withstand expected high flows The aetis rty mint,hi the maximum event practicable provide for retaining excess 00"S from the site,provide for maintaining surface flow rates front the site similar to preconstmction conditions and procoide for not un.reasnng%%aucr Rows from the project sic relocating water,or redirecting water slow beyond preconstruction conditions Stream channehzing will be reduced to the nvmmal amount necessary,and the achvrty nmst,to the maxurlum extent practicable reduce adverse effects such as flooding or erosion downstream and upstream of the —10. a t i project site,unless the activity is part of a larger system designed to nonage water flows In most cases,rt will not be a requirement to conduct detailed studies and monitoring of water flow This condition is only applicable to projects that have the potential to affect waterflows While appmprialc measures must betaken,it is not necessary to conduit detailed studies to identify such measures or require monitoring to ensure then effectiveness Normally,the Corps will defer to state and local authorities regarding management of«ate/flow 22 Adverse Effects From Impoundments If the activity creates an impoundment of water,adverse effects to the aquatic system due to the acceleration of the passage of water and/or the restricting its flow shall be rrumrruzed to the maximum extent practicable This includes structures and work in navigable waters of the US,or discharges of dredged or fill material 23 Waterfowl Breeding Areas Actn hies,mtludmg shuctures and work in navigable waters of the US or discharges of dredged or fill material into brecdnig areas for migratory waterfow I must be avoided to the maximum extent practicable 24 Removal of Temporary Fills Any temporary fills must be removed in their eritirety and the affected areas returned to their prcevsting clev ation 25 Designated
