The bill amends existing law to specify conditions under which the degree of risk may not be considered for the uniform mitigation assessment method and restricts the requirement for conservation easements for specific mitigation areas.

  • 373.414

    the degree of risk associated with the proposed mitigation; → provided, however, that if financial responsibility for mitigation is provided by one of the mechanisms listed in subparagraphs (19)(b)1.-6., the degree of risk may not be considered.

    This change stipulates that under certain financial circumstances, the level of risk will not be factored into the mitigation assessment.

  • 373.414

    For mitigation areas created pursuant to permits issued under this section after January 1, 2022, and for which mitigation has not been determined to be successful by the department or water management districts as of July 1, 2024, the following applies: (a) No conservation easement or other similar form of encumbrance of real property may be required as a condition of approval of the permit or mitigation plan; and (b) The mitigation credits attributable to the mitigation area will be determined without regard to the presence or absence of a conservation easement or other similar form of encumbrance of real property.

    This addition prohibits requiring a conservation easement for specific mitigation areas and ensures mitigation credits are determined without considering if such easements exist.
