11 Miss. Code. R. 8-8-2-A-1-VII - Mitigation Plan

Ground cover must be greater than or equal to seventy percent coverage, and tree and shrub stocking must achieve the standards set in the permit, the fifth year following completion of the initial seeding. If they do not achieve these standards, the permittee must submit a mitigation plan to the Permit Board which includes the following:

1. a statement outlining the problem;

2. a discussion of what practices, beyond normal agronomic practices, the operator intends to use to enable the area to finally meet the release standards; and

3. A new Phase III liability release plan.

If renovation, soil substitution or any other practice which constitutes augmentation is employed, the five-year responsibility period begins again.
