The acres of mitigation for a given project would be determined using the ratios <br />shown in Table 3-10. Habitat quality of the impact site and the mitigation site would be scored using this table. <br /> <br />~7.5 0/0 <br />5/5 <br />5,3,2/5,3,2 <br />~ ~ 1 mile 5/5 <br />4/4 <br />1/1 <br />25/25
