Asked by Thano

Are there problems with mitigating impacts on wetlands/streams at an off-site location within the same watershed? i.e. fill a wetland in Maryland and mitigate for it or create it in Virginia. Should the federal government (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers) or a developer decide which wetland to fill or not?

No one should tamper with a wetland without a thorough and impartial environmental impact study.

Isn't that answer basically your own opinion, not his, which is what the question is asking for?
