Avoid the Hidden Costs of Permittee-Responsible Mitigation

Permittee-Responsible Mitigation (PRM) often appears cost-effective at first glance, but the reality can be far more complex. Unforeseen challenges such as tree mortality, invasive species, hydrological failures, and prescribed fire requirements can quickly add time, expense, and uncertainty to a project. Add years of required monitoring and the possibility of paying twice if performance standards are not met, and PRM can become a costly burden. Mitigation banking offers a smarter path. When you purchase credits, responsibility for long-term restoration success transfers to the mitigation bank. This provides regulatory certainty, protects against surprise expenses, and ensures the work is managed by experienced restoration professionals. At Revive Ecosystems, LLC, we help developers and landowners navigate Florida’s complex mitigation requirements, delivering solutions that save time, reduce risk, and achieve proven ecological outcomes.
