The Devil's Swamp Mitigation Bank, located in Hancock County, Mississippi in close proximity to the Stennis Space Center, encompasses a total of 5,705 acres and is the single largest wetlands mitigation bank permitted in the USACE'S Mobile District. The sheer size of the restoration effort, while potentially daunting, has afforded Wetlands Solutions' land management team an invaluable opportunity to test numerous different restoration techniques and management approaches and then evaluate the effectiveness of these techniques with regard to their ability to either accelerate or enhance the predictability and achievement of success criteria resulting in the release of credits. These various land management strategies will be discussed in-depth throughout the tour. At the conclusion of our tour, participants will enjoy catered barbeque from The Shed (featured in 2006 on Food Network's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives) as well as local craft beers from south Mississippi's own Lazy Magnolia micro-brewery.
