A Bit of Background • Impacts to Waters of the U.S. and State • Multiple Agencies involved in permitting and mitigation process • Mitigation requirements • Continuing need for suitable mitigation sites • “Word of mouth” process
A Bit of Background • Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (OEPA) Mitigation Clearinghouse Program • Developed to help match those with potential mitigation sites with those in need of mitigation areas

Internal Web Application • Screen Shots • Currently being deployed to select users within INDOT, IDEM and IDNR • Only available through State connections
Need for Two Web Applications • Public Web Application • OEPA Mitigation Clearinghouse Program • Allows for public input of data • Internal QA/QC by IDEM • Verified and non-verified data available • GIS and database provides a conduit for State employees, environmental consultants and public contact
Public Web Application • Live Demo • http://idemmaps.idem.in.gov/apps/MitigationVolunteer/ • Available to the public
