• <br />• At least 50 percent of the area of disturbed wetland would need to be replaced <br />by wetland of the same type (Paragraph 5(c)). <br />• To receive New Wetland Credit, replacement wetland must be accompanied by <br />protected vegetated buffer at least 25 feet in width at all points (Paragraph 5(b)). <br />The buffer may be credited as Public Value Credit. <br />• To qualify for New Wetland Credit, replacement wetland must be designed to <br />meet specified slope limits at the wetland edge (Paragraph 5(e)). <br />The RCWD also proposes to require that where wetland disturbance is proposed for a <br />project involving subdivision, any replacement wetland must be located on an outlot <br />and protected from potential encroachment by a physical barrier such as an existing <br />wetland, stormwater facility or other permanent physical feature (Paragraph 5(d)). The <br />intent of this provision is to address the tendency for property owners or residents to <br />act on expectations of property access and use and gradually to encroach on "passive" <br />lands over time. Comment is particularly welcomed from developers and local units of <br />government on the extent to which this limitation would present platting or <br />development challenges. <br />The rule also would delete the existing specific criterion limiting use of wetlands for <br />stormwater storage or treatment (present Paragraph 3(c)). Instead, all such proposed <br />use would be reviewed by the RCWD under the general requirement of Paragraph 3(d) <br />limiting actions that would affect the character, quantity, quality or biological diversity <br />of wetlands. <br />The rule also would clarify that in order to be used for replacement for another project, <br />any replacement credits would need to be designated for banking, and properly <br />deposited, in accordance with WCA requirements (Paragraph 5(f)). This includes <br />designation for banking in an original banking plan prior to creation. The rule would <br />permit use of such credits before they actually are finally accepted for deposit into the <br />state wetland bank if the application for their use is submitted and complete Tess than <br />two years after their construction and the District finds that allowing the use is <br />appropriate after considering the comments of the WCA Technical Evaluation Panel. <br />Finally, the proposed rule would clarify the submittal requirements and the numbers of <br />copies of particular documents that must be submitted. <br />18 <br />
