South Carolina is looking to bring back Mitigation Banking.

York County Council hopes to have a mitigation bank plan up and running this year. Mitigation Banking allows builders to purchase credits to offset an environmental impact to a stream or wetland. Credits are generated by restoring a stream or wetland onsite or within the same watershed. York County had success with this in the past and is looking forward to having more with the current growth in development.
