EXH AR019107: Field Assessment Mitigation Replacement Ratios Puget Sound

This 1991 report by Sheldon and Associates, prepared for the Washington Department of Ecology, assesses wetland mitigation replacement ratios in the Puget Sound region. It evaluates compensation sites where wetlands were restored or created to offset permitted wetland losses, examining how well those sites functioned as replacements. The report provides findings, conclusions, and recommendations on compensation plan design, monitoring, and appropriate replacement ratios for regulatory guidance.
