Description:
Abstract:
This is a statewide layer representing mitigation banks permitted under Ch. 62-342 Florida Administrative Code. Florida mitigation banks are important for potential impact permittees and reviewers, and also serves as an additional layer of conservation lands. Mitigation Banks may be permitted by the local Water Management District or by DEP. For more information on mitigation banking, go to <http://www.dep.state.fl.us/water/wetlands/mitigation/mitigation_banking.htm>
Mitigation banking is a practice in which an environmental enhancement and preservation project is conducted by a public agency or private entity (“banker”) to provide mitigation for unavoidable wetland impacts within a defined region (mitigation service area). The bank is the site itself, and the currency sold by the banker to the impact permittee is a credit, which represents the wetland ecological value equivalent to the complete restoration of one acre. The number of potential credits permitted for the bank and the credit debits required for impact permits are determined by the permitting agencies. UMAM is the method of assessment for banks established after February 2, 2004.
Purpose:
The purpose of this layer is to aggregate data from the Water Management Districts and those mitigation banks managed by DEP into one statewide layer. This layer is available in MapDirect and is publicly available from the DEP FTP site for download.
Supplemental_Information:
Boundaries come from the local Water Management District where possible. Some boundaries are drawn from permit figures. These boundaries are NOT surveyed or digitized to legal descriptions. For regulatory decisions regarding boundaries, check with the regulatory agency directly.

A note about data scale:
Scale is an important factor in data usage. Certain scale datasets are not suitable for some project, analysis, or modeling purposes. Please be sure you are using the best available data.
1:24000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the county level. 1:24000 data should NOT be used for high accuracy base mapping such as property parcel boundaries. 1:100000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the multi-county or regional level. 1:125000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the regional or state level or larger.
Vector datasets with no defined scale or accuracy should be considered suspect. Make sure you are familiar with your data before using it for projects or analysis. Every effort has been made to supply the user with data documentation. For additional information, see the References section and the Data Source Contact section of this documentation. For more information regarding scale and accuracy, see our webpage at: <http://geoplan.ufl.edu/education.html>
