JBA to build wetlands bank at Mattawoman Creek
Col. Andrew Purath, 11th Wing and Joint Base Andrews commander, speaks at a ceremonial commemoration for the first wetlands mitigation banking instrument for the Department of Defense in Maryland on JBA, Sept. 6, 2018. The entire project yields nearly 38 wetland credits and almost 1,600 stream credits to provide potential mitigation for planned construction efforts on JBA, such as runway construction or expansion.
