Technical Resources <br />Many sources of information are available for the LGU <br />and TEP to consider in reviewing project proposals to <br />determine if a site is exceptional and if a proposed <br />activity warrants the allocation of wetland replacement <br />credit. This information can vary depending on the specific <br />resource and location. All relevant information can be <br />considered, including: <br />• Natural resource management plans, wetland <br />inventories, or ecological studies. <br />• Topographic and <br />information, aerial <br />sources. <br />hydrologic maps, soil survey <br />photographs, and similar data <br />• Information on rare, endangered, or threatened <br />species and critical habitat. <br />• Minnesota's Sensitive Lakeshore Identification Manual, <br />County Biological Survey, Natural Heritage <br />Information System, and other fisheries, wildlife, and <br />habitat surveys. <br />• Other published literature and technical reports. <br />• Input from local, state, and federal resource <br />management agency technical professionals. <br />• MnRAM also contains a list of special features that can <br />be useful as a starting point for making this <br />determination. <br />See the BWSR website for examples of <br />exceptional resources and a list of approved <br />ENRV projects. <br />A decorah shale wetland may be considered exceptional in southern MN. <br />Clean Water Act Coordination <br />The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is responsible 0 <br />for approving wetland mitigation credit under <br />the federal Clean Water Act. To increase the <br />likelihood that ENRV credit will be acceptable for <br />both the state and federal programs, applicants <br />are encouraged to consult with the Corps early in <br />the process, before a full application is prepared <br />and concurrent with TEP pre - application scoping. <br />Projects that restore and protect spawning habitat for <br />northern pike or other important species can be eligible for <br />ENRV. <br />BWSR Guidance, July 1, 2010 <br />The primary authors of this guidance are: <br />• Les Lemm, WCA Coordinator <br />• Dale Krystosek, Senior Wetland Specialist <br />This document is available on the BWSR <br />website and may be revised periodically. <br />Check the website for the most current <br />version. www.bwsr.state.mn.us /wetlands <br />Contact your Local Government Unit or <br />BWSR Wetland Specialist for additional <br />information. <br />6 <br />
