I got approval from another agency, why do I need to get approval from the County?

Benton County is mandated to administer the MN Wetland Conservation Act. This state law is in addition to other federal, state and local “wetland” regulation that may exist. Approval for another agency does not mean automatic approval under the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act. A common analogy for multiple jurisdictions is income tax requirements at the federal, state and sometimes local level. For more information, contact us at 320-968-5065.
