Staff shares quarterly photo booklet showing progress on upstream mitigation flowage‑easement acquisitions
Summary
Justin presented a quarterly photo booklet documenting progress securing flowage easements across the upstream mitigation area, explaining color coding for secured, eminent domain and negotiated parcels and noting the booklet updates roughly every three months.
Justin presented a photo booklet tracking flowage‑easement acquisition progress in the upstream mitigation area. He described the booklet’s color coding—green for parcels with secured flowage easements, orange/red for parcels under eminent domain, and blue for parcels in negotiation—and said the booklet is updated approximately every three months to show gains over time.
Justin said the booklet reflects committee input and staff due diligence and invited questions; none were offered. The presentation was informational, intended to demonstrate acquisition progress and inform future decisions about parcels the committee may place into the excess‑lands program or otherwise manage for mitigation purposes.
Why it matters: Flowage easements protect areas needed for diversion and mitigation functions; tracking acquisitions gives the committee a visual summary of mitigation‑area status and supports decisions about listing parcels as excess or retaining them for operational needs. Justin said staff will continue quarterly updates.
