[Untitled][edit]

I can't edit this page because I can't understand it. I want to just comment:

Boy is this EVER confusing! I still can't figure out what the terms "bank" and "credit" mean in this article. Would someone please please break this down to an ABC 123 level for people who know zero about the subject? Thank you!!!

Susan

I tried to fix the "multiple issues" listed at the top by creating a "mitigation credits" section which identifies what exactly mitigation credits are and how they differ from a mitigation bank. I also used and added multiple credible sources such as "RIBITS" developed by the US Army Corps of Engineers and an article about mitigation banking written by the Washington State Department of Ecology under the US Army Corps of Engineers.

I added 'History' and 'Challenges' sections to give context to the process of mitigation banking and make the article well rounded. I hope these edits break this confusing topic down for people with zero knowledge on the subject!

Congratulations[edit]

Congratulations on making it to today's listing on the "Did You Know..." section of Wikipedia Main Page. The process of making it the listing takes a bit of effort and involves the quick cooperation of many editors. All involved deserve recognition, appreciation, thanks and applause.
