Species and Wetland Mitigation
The 530-acre Meridian Ranch Mitigation Bank is located in Butte County, California and hosts a range of historic vernal pools, vernal swales, and seasonal wetlands that have been re-established and rehabilitated by excavating and reconnecting the landscape features to retain rainfall and runoff. Meridian Ranch restored the damaged landscape which was originally zones to create multiple 40-acre ranchettes. Through restoration, WES was able to establish endangered native plant species that were not known to occur on-site prior. The site also conserves the federally endangered Conservancy fairy shrimp.
