Mitigation Ratio definition

Mitigation Ratio means the rate at which wetland units (e.g., acres) will be restored, created, enhanced or preserved to provide for compensation of unavoidable wetland losses.
Mitigation Ratio means the ratio of Credits needed by a Credit Buyer or produced by the State to offset any Permanent Disturbance within sage-grouse habitat. [Any]Where a regulatory agency is involved, the agency establishes the mitigation ratio but it is recommended that any person causing Permanent Disturbance to an acre of sage-grouse habitat should provide four acres of Functional Habitat, Protected Habitat, or Corridors as a proper Mitigation Ratio to offset indirect impacts from disturbance and account for differences in habitat quality without conducting a detailed analysis of either factor.

More Definitions of Mitigation Ratio

Mitigation Ratio means a ratio expressing the amount of mitigation required based on the impact sustained by a critical area. The first number of a mitigation ratio specifies the number or area required for replacement, and the second specifies the number or area impacted.
Mitigation Ratio means mitigation for the conversion of land in the respective Permit Areas to Authorized Development at a ratio of one-half (½) acre of land protected or preserved for every one (1) acre of land converted to Authorized Development.
Mitigation Ratio means the ratio of Credits needed by a Credit Buyer or produced by the State to offset any Permanent Disturbance within sage-grouse habitat to produce a Net Conservation Gain for sage-grouse. Any person causing Permanent Disturbance to an acre of sage-grouse habitat should provide four acres of Functional Habitat or Corridors as a proper Mitigation Ratio.
Mitigation Ratio means the ratio of the area conserved to the area disturbed. For example, a ratio of one to two would require one-half acre conserved for each acre of disturbance.
