Exempts certain agricultural land from wetland replacement plan requirements.

The bill amends Minnesota Statutes to exempt certain agricultural land from wetland replacement plan requirements. Specifically, it excludes land planted with annually seeded crops or in crop rotation from needing a replacement plan. This applies to land in certain counties and activities authorized under a permit from the United States Army Corps of Engineers. The exemption covers normal farming practices but excludes activities that drain wetlands.
