to otherwise impact approximately .008 acres of waters and .004 acres of protected riparian buffers for the
purpose of stabilizing approximately 168 linear feet of shoreline, as described in your application received on
August 5, 2003. After reviewing your application, we have determined that this project is covered by Water
