The Ecosystem Enhancement Program partners with private biological-engineering and mitigation contractors on wetlands restoration and enhancement programs across the state. The information in this section is designed to assist consultants who wish to provide services to the program.

EEP also offers many benefits to landowners interested in protecting and restoring wetlands, streams and riparian areas on their property, and may pay up to 100 percent of the costs of restoration.

Finally, EEP accepts payments from permit holders in lieu of actual undertaking of a mitigation project. EEP then uses the money to create, restore or enhance wetlands, streams and riparian areas.
