Wetlands and riparian zones provide significant benefits to Arkansans, including flood control, water quality enhancement, fish and wildlife habitat, recreational opportunities, and groundwater recharge. Arkansas Code Annotated §26-51-1501 et seq, the "Arkansas Wetland and Riparian Zone Creation, Restoration, and Conservation Tax Credits Act," allows a state income tax credit to be taken by taxpayers who engage in the development, restoration, or conservation of wetland and riparian zones through projects approved by the Private Lands Restoration Committee. The program promotes an increase in biological and ecological integrity through voluntary restoration or conservation of Arkansas’ important environmental landscapes.

Qualifying projects and activities include:

• procurement of professional services for site development & project maintenance,
• preparation of site,
• establishment of permanent vegetation,
• stabilization of stream banks and control of erosion,
• construction of berms, and
• installation of water control structures.
