Stormwater Nutrient Credits
Helping You Meet Florida’s Stormwater Requirements with Confidence
Stormwater Nutrient Credits offer a cost-effective and time-saving compliance path for projects subject to stormwater quality regulations. These credits can help offset nutrient impacts—such as nitrogen or phosphorus—from new or expanding development within designated Basin Management Action Plan (BMAP) areas or impaired watersheds.
At The Mitigation Banking Group, we work with developers, municipalities, engineers, and regulatory consultants to provide access to stormwater credits that support water quality goals while keeping projects moving forward.
What Are Stormwater Nutrient Credits?
Stormwater Nutrient Credits are environmental offsets generated by approved restoration projects that remove nutrients from water bodies. These projects are permitted through Florida’s Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) or a Water Management District and are assigned a specific quantity of credits based on their measurable nutrient removal.
When new development results in nutrient loading that exceeds allowable thresholds, purchasing credits can satisfy regulatory requirements, avoid costly redesigns, and reduce permitting delays.
When Are They Used?
These credits are often used to comply with FDEP’s stormwater rules, particularly within BMAP areas, TMDL (Total Maximum Daily Load) watersheds, and areas with nutrient-impaired water bodies. Buyers typically include:
- Land developers
- Municipal stormwater programs
- Public infrastructure projects
- Utility providers
- Engineers and consultants navigating permit constraints
Why Use Stormwater Credits?
- Save Time: Credits can significantly shorten permitting timelines by resolving nutrient compliance early in the process.
- Save Money: Avoid expensive infrastructure upgrades or on-site treatment systems.
- Stay Compliant: Fulfill FDEP and water management regulations with a streamlined approach.
- Support Restoration: Your purchase contributes to large-scale environmental projects that benefit Florida’s watersheds.
