USACE mitigation bankingGreat Lakes & Ohio River Division
How long the LRD division's districts take to approve a mitigation bank, what credit supply they oversee, and how the districts differ from one another. The clock that matters is the regulator's own — everything else includes time the applicant spends revising.
Figures mirrored from USACE RIBITS · ORM · RRS · synced
A bank clears the regulator here in about 10 months — and takes roughly 1.8 years end to end.
Measured against the national median, the regulator clock sits level with it (1.04×) and the full clock sits level with it (0.90×). Districts diverge sharply enough that the division median is a starting point, not a forecast for any one office — Huntington closes in 231 days, Louisville in 547.

About the data on this page
Bank details, status and credit balances are mirrored from the USACE RIBITS registry, the federal public record for mitigation banks. Single-client banks are excluded from supply figures. Credit balances count only banks that can sell today — sold-out, suspended, terminated, withdrawn, closed-out and not-yet-approved banks are left out. Credit classes offset different resources and are never added together. Totals across many banks are rounded to whole credits — a single bank’s own balance never is. Approval timelines come from the USACE permit-processing record (ORM). We calculate the median from every bank’s milestone dates in the division. Full clock means from the first public notice of the prospectus to the final decision — it includes the applicant’s own time. Regulator clock means from the complete draft instrument being received to that same final decision — the part the Corps controls. A median is shown only where at least four banks have both milestone dates. In-lieu fee instruments are excluded throughout. Public notices come from the USACE Regulatory Request System (RRS). Notice text is the Corps’ own; the one-line summary beside it is an AI generated summary.
