In-Lieu Fee Agreement Introduced

On Monday, March 26, the FHWA coordinated a presentation, by an industry professional, to introduce the process for the approval and use of In-Lieu Fee agreements as an alternative compensatory mitigation option. Based on expressed interest from the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT), the presentation is for NYSDOT, New York State Thruway Authority, and Federal Highway Administration staff and will take place at the NYSDOT main office building in Albany, New York. In-Lieu Fee agreements have been identified as an EDC initiative for streamlining project delivery.

Compensatory Mitigation Banking Pursued on Project

On Tuesday, March 27, the FHWA presented an overview of the details in the Adirondack Banking Prospectus at the annual "New York State Wetlands Forum." As the FHWA continues to assist the New York State Department of Transportation in exploring and advancing opportunities for the use of Compensatory Mitigation Banking, the Prospectus (an introductory document to an agreement that will formalize the Adirondack Park as a service area to host a series of mitigation banking sites that will be utilized to offset impacts that result from transportation projects in the park) is under review by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, prior to the FHWA’s request for public comment in the Federal Register. Compensatory Mitigation Banking agreements have been identified as an Every Day Counts initiative for streamlining project delivery.
