ELS was contracted by Rotschy to help form Terrace Mitigation Bank. This bank is a privately-owned, 113-acre wetland mitigation bank located in the eastern portion of the City of Vancouver, within Clark County, Washington. The Bank is able to provide mitigation for authorized impacts to wetlands by restoring and rehabilitating approximately 89.15 acres of self-sustaining, diverse forest, scrub-shrub, and emergent wetland habitat onsite. The Bank will function to restore site hydrology, increase habitat function, and reestablish wetland and riparian vegetation communities on a site that had been historically degraded by agricultural practices.
