How will permanent impacts to wetlands and open waters, i.e. creeks and drainages, be mitigated?
BART will compensate for permanent impacts to open waters and wetlands at an off-site location adjacent to the project site. Wetlands will be restored at a ratio of 4 acres for every 1 acre impacted. Open water impacts will be restored at a 1 to 1 ratio based on linear feet impacted. Mitigation of these impacts will occur upon completion of the Subway Contract.
