AI Summary
This bill creates a general permit for hydrologic restoration projects and establishes a Hydrologic Restoration and Management Advisory Council. The general permit authorizes activities that will result in a net improvement in hydrologic connections, conditions, and functions, such as reconnecting streams and floodplains, restoring natural flow and movement of water or sediment, and reestablishing vegetation. The Advisory Council will provide input on the terms and conditions of the general permit, help coordinate interagency review of restoration proposals, and recommend policy and program changes to integrate hydrologic restoration strategies into state-sponsored programs. The bill also repeals an existing general permit for certain wetland restoration activities.
