12/3/2020 EPA has released Tidal Restrictions Synthesis Review: An Analysis of U.S. Tidal Restrictions and Opportunities for their Avoidance and Removal
This has been a huge effort by EPA and supported by FHWA. I hope you find it useful and informative and consider the opportunities to further identify and address tidal restrictions, and the potential to generate mitigation opportunities through the reestablishment of historic tidal exchange. This is not only good for the resource and species, but for asset management by replacing these restrictions with resilient accommodating structures.

SCDOT Announcement
7/30/2020: SCDOT provided notice to SCMA on July 30, 2020 to inform the industry, in advance of upcoming IFB’s that SCDOT will be requesting Bids for the I-526 Low Country Corridor Project Mitigation. SCDOT is moving through the conditions and approval process, but are currently working towards the release of this IFB in calendar year, 2020. The IFB will follow a similar LOTs structure as the A.M.P. Watershed solicitations. This IFB will seek to acquire Freshwater Wetland, Freshwater Stream, and Tidal Wetland credits from a commercial mitigation bank. SCDOT will look forward to speaking on the topic soon.
