Amends TCA Title 69, Chapter 3.
Tennessee SB0664 amends the Tennessee Code Annotated Title 69, Chapter 3, to expand provisions related to aquatic resource alteration permits (ARAP). The bill affects applicants seeking ARAPs for activities involving wetlands and stream impacts, allowing exemptions from compensatory mitigation if the only disqualifying factor is the size of the area involved. Key provisions include a shift from focusing solely on wetland size to considering the overall area for which the permit is sought, thereby potentially reducing mitigation requirements for larger projects.
