CHARACTER OF WORK:    The Sponsor proposes restoration to bottomland hardwood wetlands nine (9) distinct existing and/or abandoned agricultural fields (Areas A – I) totaling 459.4 acres (359.4 ac re-establishment, 100.0 ac rehabilitation).  Area A, B and D are fallow/abandoned fields; Area C is pasture, and Areas E through I are sugarcane fields.  Ditching and swales internal to the individual fields will be backfilled with native material to facilitate restoration of surface hydrology within the field. Existing woody vegetation will be removed by mechanical means and piled for burning. The lands will be planted with appropriate species to resemble other nearby bottomland hardwood systems.  The restoration activities would be used as compensation for unavoidable impacts to wetlands associated with Department of the Army (DA) permits authorized under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act.  The mitigation banking prospectus is attached.
