AI Summary
This bill creates a general permit for hydrologic restoration projects and a Hydrologic Restoration and Management Advisory Council. The general permit allows for wetland, stream, and floodplain restoration activities that will result in a net improvement in hydrologic connections, conditions, and functions, such as slowing runoff, reducing flood peaks, and restoring surface and groundwater interactions. The Advisory Council will provide input on the general permit, help coordinate interagency review of proposals, and recommend policy and program changes to further integrate hydrologic restoration strategies. The bill also repeals and modifies existing statutes related to general permits for wetland restoration activities.
