Résumé

This Chapter of the Revised Code of Washington (RCW) concerns wetlands mitigation banking. Its purpose is to support the establishment of mitigation banks by authorizing state agencies and local governments, as well as private entities, to achieve the goals of this chapter; and providing a predictable, efficient, regulatory framework, including timely review of mitigation bank proposals. The legislature intends that, in the development and adoption of rules for banks, the department establish and use a collaborative process involving interested public and private entities. Further, it provides for wetlands or wetlands banks, authority for regulating; rules, submission of proposed rules to legislative committees; certification of banks, approval of use of credits by state and local governments; approval of use of credits by the department, requirements; interpretation of chapter and rules; and application to public and private mitigation banks.
