As the governing Board of the National Environmental Banking Association will tell you, member benefits and organizational values in service to the industry are the key focus of our Association. The recent success of the Washington DC Fly-In earlier this month and meetings with key Congressional Committees as well as all relevant senior agency officials, are just one example the NEBA's reach and effectiveness.
NEBA was founded and continues through today centered on three guiding principles - integrity, transparency, and accountability. We are a responsive, professional organization - always industry focused. NEBA continues to promote the highest professional standards and to represent the very best businesses in the environmental banking industry. We have sought to consistently build member benefits and to solve member problems. NEBA keeps its costs down and membership dues low, relying on strong volunteer efforts to continue much of its high-quality outreach, education, and membership support.
The growing number of government members at NEBA is a demonstration of the collaborative nature of the Association as well as its importance as a source of industry news and feedback.
NEBA's mission is more relevant and vital today than at any time in confronting the new threats being posed for the industry.

Keep a watch on this space for an exciting upcoming announcement of new Congressional action and fresh support to mitigation banking.
Mitigation banking is often discussed in terms of credits—wetland credits, stream credits, or other units used to compensate for unavoidable environmental impacts. But the value of a mitigation bank extends far beyond the regulatory credit itself. Well-designed mitigation banks can provide a broad range of ecosystem services that benefit watersheds, wildlife, communities, and taxpayers.Cleaner Water •
