Assumptions: 1) Habitat impacts mitigated through proposed BDCP restoration of tidal marsh/aquatic and riparian habitats are not included in impact total 2) Assumed two acres of mitigation land for every acre of permanent impact and one acre of mitigation land for every acre of temporary impact – general assumption without taking into consideration habitat function 3) Land acquisition cost of $10,000 per acre
