The Legacy Farms Stream Mitigation Bank  site is located in  Jones County, Georgia.  The mitigation bank incorporates approximately 206.79 acres of riparian forest and approximately 23,416 linear feet of stream channel/riparian buffer. 

The project is predominately comprised of stream restoration, enhancement and preservation (23,416 feet) in the Upper Ocmulgee River Basin (Hydrologic Unit Code 03070103). The natural landform features within the property, extensive past alterations through agriculture and channel dredging, and the current agriculture and grazing land use provide a unique opportunity to restore a major watershed directly linked to the Ocmulgee River.

The primary service area of the mitigation bank is the Upper Ocmulgee watershed, defined by Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) 03070103 (See Link to Map).  The secondary service area is the Upper Oconee, HUC 03070101. The project is located with the Piedmont Physiographic Province eco-region.
