In accordance with Section 4.0 of the Memorandum of Agreement entered into by NCDENR and NCDOT on April 12, 2004, EEP is responsible for forecasting the amount of compensatory mitigation required to satisfy the annual certified impacts. Based upon the goal of providing a 2:1 ratio of restoration mitigation to impacts, EEP determines the amount of restoration mitigation that it must obtain by doubling the impacts and grouping them by geographical area. The timing for implementing the mitigation is detailed in Section X of the Memorandum of Agreement entered into by NCDENR, NCDOT and USACE on July 22, 2003.
