Streams & Wetlands Mitigation Solutions
The Importance Of Wetland Restoration For Ecosystem Health
Wetlands are vital to ecosystem health, absorbing floodwaters, supporting wildlife, protecting drinking water, and providing recreational and economic benefits.
Restoring wetlands ensures these essential resources can continue delivering ecological, social, and economic value for the long term.
Buy Streams & Wetlands Mitigation Credits
Mitigation banking credits help developers meet environmental regulations by offsetting unavoidable wetland and stream impacts through credits purchased within the same watershed. However, finding the right credits can be complex.
Davey Mitigation uses its network of mitigation bank partners to secure the appropriate credits at the best value and guide developers smoothly through the permitting process.
In-Lieu Fee Mitigation For Streams & Wetlands
In-lieu fee programs allow developers to offset wetland and stream impacts by purchasing credits from mitigation banks created by public agencies or nonprofits. Fees collected from permittees fund the development of mitigation sites that replace lost aquatic resources.
Davey Mitigation provides end-to-end support for in-lieu fee programs, from permitting and site design to construction oversight and long-term monitoring.
Permittee-Responsible Mitigation For Streams & Wetlands
When approved mitigation bank credits aren’t available in a watershed, developers can meet requirements through permittee-responsible mitigation (PRM), which provides compensatory mitigation for a single project.
Davey Mitigation delivers turnkey PRM solutions, managing site selection, regulatory approval, construction oversight, and long-term monitoring and maintenance.

My questions or concerns were always answered in a timely and professional manner. I would also like to add that after they completed their work, my property has stopped flooding altogether. They have completely restored the surrounding area back to a well balanced habitat.”
