Fiscal Detail and Notes
Allowing applicants to meet certain municipal mitigation requirements in lieu of paying a compensation fee will result in a reduction of dedicated revenue to the Storm Water Compensation Fund administered by the Department of Environmental Protection.  The Storm Water Compensation Fund is a pass through account where compensation fee revenue is deposited and disbursed for the sole purpose of implementing compensation projects as a condition of a permit.  The reduction in dedicated revenue is not expected to have a significant impact on the program.
