What we do
Conservation & Restoration
The Tye River Mitigation Bank is located in Nelson County, Virginia and is made of over approximately 440 acres southeast of Arrington, Virginia. Tye River Mitigation bank has mitigation Credits for developers to purchase. Credits are a more cost effective and efficient way to manage a restoration project than to try to get regulatory approvals that might otherwise take months to procure.
Ecology and Economy
Tye River Mitigation Bank has restored units of affected acreage in the process of earning credits. There is no time lag between the onset of the environmental impact and compensatory mitigation restoration requirements at the bank site. The system of mitigation banking effectively transfers the liability of ecological loss from the developer (also called permittee) to the mitigation banker. Once the permittee buys the required credits, it becomes the responsibility of the mitigation banker to develop, maintain and monitor the site on a long-term basis.
