Bill overview
This bill allows the state-owned Blue Acres land, which is managed by municipalities, to be used for freshwater wetlands mitigation projects. If creating wetlands on a development site isn't feasible, developers can now propose creating, enhancing, or restoring wetlands offsite on this specific land, provided the state and local municipality agree. This expands mitigation options to include utilizing these valuable conservation lands.
