  1. Managing Extremes Watershed and Climate Disruption EEP and Trends in Mitigation May 7, 2010

  2. Background Production at EEP Trends Observations

  3. The Partnership

  4. Ecosystem Enhancement Program • DENR Program that: • Improves our environment. • Assists responsible economic development. • Restores and preserves streams and wetlands: • Where the need is greatest. • Through partnerships with local and state agencies and interested parties • With willing landowners.

  5. EEP Provides Mitigation that is • High quality • Watershed planning based • Cost effective Tri-Party

  6. History • WRP launched in 1996 for local government and general public. • Expanded in 2003 as Ecosystem Enhancement Program. • Four programs: • DOT (Wetlands and Streams) • General Public (Wetlands and Streams) • Buffers enhancements (Tar/Pam, Neuse and Cape Fear basins) • Nutrient Offset (Tar-Pam and Neuse basins)

  7. EEP Overview • • Receipt-based – no appropriations • Regulated • State and national recognition • Voluntary

  8. What EEP does • Accept mitigation requirements • Strategically plan, build and protect mitigation sites • Coordinates with regulators
