Abstract: The Gas Research Institute has three ongoing research projects studying impacts of the natural gas industry on wetlands and how operations can be managed to minimize or eUminate these impacts. The first project is developing a better understanding of the causes and processes of wetland loss in the Louisiana deltaic plain and what role gas pipeline canals play in wetland loss. From this, management and mitigation implications for pipeline construction and maintenance will be evaluated. The second project is assessing the floral and faunal communities on existing ROWs through numerous types of wetlands across the U.S. The emphasis is on pipelines that were installed within the past 5 years. The third project is eviiluating the administrative, jurisdictional, technical and economic issues of wetlands mitigation banking. This paper discusses these projects, their backgrounds, some of the results to date and the dehverables.
