Raccoon Creek Wetland and Stream Mitigation Bank

Raccoon Creek Wetland and Stream Mitigation Bank is a 111.56-acre site located along Raccoon Creek & adjacent to Camel Creek in the Little Wabash Watershed in Wayne County, Illinois. The bank site benefits the watershed as agricultural and pasture runoff will is filtered as it flows across the Bank site. Occasional floodwaters from Raccoon Creek & Camel Creek will be filtered in the established wetlands, which will also store flood waters and provide substantial wildlife benefits. Raccoon Creek Wetland and Stream Mitigation Bank was approved by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Louisville District in October 2023 for a potential of 95.46 wetland credits and 1078.35 stream credits. The mitigation plan includes the restoration and enhancement of forested and emergent wetland habitats.
