• Abstract:
  Wisconsin has constructed many environmental mitigation projects in conjunction with transportation projects that have been implemented according ; to the National Environmental Policy Act. Other mitigation projects have been constructed pursuant to discussions and negotiations with the ; Wisconsin DNR. These projects offset or replace a certain environmental function(s) lost as a result of construction of the transportation project. ; Examples include storm water management facilities, stream restoration projects, construction of sound walls, replacement of parklands and wildlife ; crossing structures. ; In order for the environmental mitigation projects to continue to provide long term functionality intended when they were first constructed, they must ; be properly maintained, and when necessary, rehabilitated or reconstructed. These environmental mitigation projects may be considered as assets ; similar to other transportation features. Wisconsin DOT (WisDOT) has identified the need for a better inventory management of the selected features ; in the overall scheme of project development and ongoing maintenance.
