Since 2001, Habitat Bank has specialized in mitigation bank development in Washington. In a press release, the port said the company’s oversight of the Columbia River Wetland Mitigation Bank has been a model in the preservation and restoration of natural resources from both an ecological and economic perspective.
“The port very much values its partnership with Habitat Bank LLC, and appreciates the company’s commitment to wetland habitat for future generations,” said Patty Boyden, director of environmental services at the port.
Habitat Bank received the award during the port’s regularly scheduled Board of Commissioners meeting on Tuesday, May 27.
