Summary of the Selected Restoration Alternatives Sample Clauses

Summary of the Selected Restoration Alternatives. The Trustees’ mandate under OPA and OSPRA is to make the environment and the public whole for injuries to natural resources and services resulting from an incident. This requirement must be achieved through the restoration, rehabilitation, replacement, or acquisition of equivalent natural resources and/or services (33 U.S.C. §2706(b) and L.R.S. 30:2451 et seq.)). Thus, for a project to be considered, there must be a connection between natural resource and service injuries and the proposed restoration action. Restoration actions under OPA are termed primary or compensatory. Primary restoration is any action taken to accelerate the return of injured natural resources and services to their baseline condition. Trustees may elect to rely on natural recovery rather than primary restoration actions where feasible or cost-effective primary restoration actions are not available, or where the injured natural resources and services would recover relatively quickly without human intervention. Compensatory restoration is any action taken to compensate for interim losses of natural resources and services pending recovery. The scale of the required compensatory restoration depends on the extent and severity of the initial natural resource and/or service injury and how quickly each natural resource and associated service returns to baseline. Primary restoration actions that speed natural resource and service recovery will reduce the requirement for compensatory restoration. Based on observations made during the injury assessment phase, the Trustees determined that active primary restoration would not significantly speed the recovery to baseline levels. Therefore, the natural recovery alternative is selected for primary restoration. The Trustees evaluated various restoration alternatives for compensatory restoration and identified 14 with a strong nexus to the injured resource. Based on analysis by the Trustees, a dredge and fill xxxxx creation project was selected as the compensatory restoration alternative for restoring natural resources and services. Further discussion of selection criteria and the restoration alternatives considered follows in Chapter 5.
