I had to pay for mitigation in the late 80's. It was 2 for 1.
They would not let me do it, I had to pay a certified contractor.
I wanted to make wetlands by digging a levee around some land
and flooding it. The state said it could be pumped out, so I had
to fix up some land somewhere else. They did not let me make
the decision on where it was, they made all decisions.
I was able to find a contractor way cheaper than what the State
wanted to use.
