Wetland replacement requirements modification

Summary

The bill revises Minnesota’s wetland replacement rules, establishing a new priority order for where replacement wetlands must be sited and defining what counts as reasonable, practicable, and environmentally beneficial opportunities. It also requires agencies and local governments to work together, directs the board to set replacement ratios and service‑area priorities, and lets certain public‑transportation projects use old wetland‑banking credits. The changes aim to improve the quality and consistency of wetland mitigation across the state.
