Forest_mitig_retention_areas
This is a polygon feature class representing the Forest Conservation Mitigation Retention Areas within Worcester County. These areas constist of existing forest land. The property owners of the land have set aside their land in a permanent protected easement and are required to keep the easements in forest in perpetuity. These mitigation easements are located on privately owned land and are retention areas. There are times when obtaining compliance with Forest Conservation Laws are difficult within a "subject site" for development. The law provides a method for a developer to obtain a credit from an off-site mitigation area, provided that the "subject site" and the "mitigation area" are located in the same watershed. These Forest Conservation Mitigation Retention Areas are the "off-site" locations used to obtain the credit. For further information/requirements for these Forest Mitigation Retention Areas contact the Department of Development Review and Permitting, Worcester County Government Center. 410.632.1200. (ext 1146) Jenelle Gerthoffer is the current forest Conservatio Specialist for this program at this time
To show the locations of the Forest Conservation mitigations Retention Areas in Worcester County. To asist the managment of these areas.

Downloaded the recored plats from Plats.net as a .tiff format. In ArcGIS 9.2 georeferenced the tiff to 2004 aerial imagery. (.25 meter pixel resolution). Once the tif was geo-referenced we then digitized the recorded Forest conservation mitigation retention area.
