  • Bjorklund Compensatory Mitigation Bank

    Expiration date: 8/9/2025

    The sponsor is proposing to restore approximately 188.4 acres of natural habitat consisting of wet meadow wetland, mesic prairie and forested buffer within the Rum River watershed. The sponsor and the Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources have entered into a partnership agreement to complete the proposed wetland restoration project. Currently, much of the site is planted to row crop agriculture with several private ditches providing drainage. The sponsor proposes to achieve the project objectives by disabling the existing private surface drainage systems within the site, stabilizing hydrologic conditions, and re-establishing native plant communities through seeding and planting within the permanently protected conservation easement area.
