In-lieu fee mitigation rates by state

No mitigation bank publishes its credit prices. In-lieu fee programs do — an ILF rate is set administratively and posted, which makes these the only officially published prices in this market. We mirror 199 published rates across 22 programs, out of 110 federal in-lieu fee programs registered in RIBITS. A rate is a list price, not a market transaction: it is frequently well above or below what a bank charges in the same watershed.

In-lieu fee mitigation rates by credit type

Across the 199 rates published by 22 programs, two credit types carry almost the whole market: wetland (95 rates) and stream (68 rates). The median published wetland credit is $106,400 and the median stream credit is $500. That gap is not a price level — a stream credit and a wetland credit are different quantities — which is why rates are grouped below by credit type and by the unit the sponsor prices in. A per-acre rate and a per-credit rate are not comparable figures.

In-lieu fee rates by program and service area

22 of the 110 programs registered in RIBITS publish a fee schedule we hold. 12 of them price by service area, so a single program can carry many rates — Ohio’s 46 rates come from 3 programs — and 10 tag no service area at all, so their 19 rates each apply across the whole program. Of the 88 that publish no dollar figure, 31 record a pricing model instead (full cost, per project, or a calculator) and 57 carry no fee schedule in the registry at all.

About the data on this page

Bank details, status and credit balances are mirrored from the USACE RIBITS registry, the federal public record for mitigation banks.

The rates are not from RIBITS — the federal registry publishes no in-lieu fee price. Each one was transcribed by hand from the program’s own published fee schedule, which is linked beside it, and carries that schedule’s effective date. Schedules are updated when the program republishes, not on a set cycle, so a rate may be several years old and still be the current one. This is an administrative list price, set by the program sponsor as the regulated cost of meeting a permit obligation. It is not a market rate for a mitigation bank credit and should not be read as one. Rows differ in effective date, in credit subtype, and sometimes in unit: a per-acre rate and a per-credit rate are not comparable figures. 22 of 110 registered programs publish a schedule we hold.
