Issues addressed will include: how the ecology and biology of Florida’s seagrasses and mangroves drive the reality of regulatory responses; what restoration options and assessment strategies are available; the pitfalls of the permitting process, particularly with respect to monitoring and permit/mitigation compliance; and restoration site selection, techniques and monitoring includes in the context of the regulatory environment, including Habitat Equivalency Analysis and UMAM.
