(1) After advanced environmental mitigation is conducted from funds in the advanced environmental mitigation revolving account, the advanced environmental mitigation sites must be managed in accordance with any permits, agreements, or other legal documents under which the subject advanced environmental mitigation is conducted.
(2) When the department or any of its transportation partners proceeds with the construction of a transportation project that will use advanced environmental mitigation sites to meet the environmental mitigation needs of a project, the advanced environmental mitigation revolving account shall be reimbursed from those transportation project funds appropriated for the use of the advanced environmental mitigation sites. Reimbursements to the advanced environmental mitigation revolving account must be paid at a rate that captures:
(a) Projected land acquisition costs for environmental mitigation for the subject transportation project;
(b) Advanced environmental mitigation site development costs;
(c) Advanced environmental mitigation site operational costs (e.g., site monitoring);
(d) Administrative costs for the management of the advanced environmental revolving account.
These costs must be adjusted based on inflation, as appropriate.
When only a portion of an advanced environmental mitigation site is used, the reimbursement rate charged to the purchasing party will be prorated for the portion used.
