Amends TCA Title 69, Chapter 3.
Tennessee HB0612 amends existing law regarding the issuance of aquatic resource alteration permits (ARAP) by expanding the criteria for compensatory mitigation exemptions. The bill affects applicants seeking ARAPs for activities related to the removal of sand, gravel, and similar sediments from streams or wetlands. Key provisions include a change that allows exemptions from compensatory mitigation based on the size of wetland impacts or stream impacts, rather than the overall size of the area for which the permit is sought.
