Regulated Entity

Water quality trading allows regulated entities to offset unavoidable environmental impacts and meet regulatory compliance in a less expensive, more ecologically meaningful way. Regulated entities include businesses, developers, municipalities and utilities that are required to offset their environmental impacts they cannot avoid otherwise. Regulated entities purchase regulator-approved credits generated by restoration projects on private land upstream from the regulated entities site of impact.
