Key Highlights
The seller of the Hatchineha Ranch Mitigation Bank is The Nature Conservancy. The property is located in Polk County, Florida and is regulated by the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) under Permit Number 53-00003-M, originally issued in 2010. The bank offers approximately 259.09 total state wetland mitigation credits, including 94.69 released credits (release currently paused pending sale) and 164.4 unreleased credits. The designated service area includes Lake Hatchineha, Lake Pierce, Reedy Creek, Shingle Creek, Lake Toho, and Boggy Creek. A total of 2,056.80 acres are secured under a permanent Conservation Easement. The property holds a distinct market advantage as there are currently no other immediately available released state wetland mitigation credits within this service area.
