TETONKA WETLAND MITIGATION BANK

The Tetonka Wetland Mitigation Bank has been authorized by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Omaha District, to serve as a wetland mitigation bank within the Big Sioux River Major Watershed in southeast South Dakota (see figure). The purpose of the bank is to provide compensatory mitigation for projects which impact wetland resources where the Corps of Engineers and/or the South Dakota Department of Environment and Natural Resources have jurisdiction. As development activities affect the natural resource base in this major watershed basin, the proactive restoration of the Tetonka wetland habitats, creates an opportunity for advanced mitigation of those impacts under Section 404 (Clean Water Act) regulatory program.
