This is with reference to your request to modify State Permit #131-83, which was renewed on 4/16/99,
and expires on 4/30/01 (renewal currently pending). The action proposed in your submittal consists of
minor channel maintenance prior to the beginning of the summer season. The proposed work consists of
a shoaled area in the entrance channel, approximately 100 feet long and 60 feet wide. The work would
be completed with a barge mounted excavator and the spoil material placed on highground property within
the boat yard (> 30' landward of MHW, as inspected 4/12/01). Once dry, the spoil material would be
trucked off -site to an upland disposal area.
Upon reviewing the submittal, I have determined that the proposed action is consistent with existing State
Hiles and regulations and is in keeping with the original purpose and intent of the permit. I hereby submit
this Letter of Refinement authorizing the modification of State Permit #131-83, as described in your
transmittal letter and plans received in our office on 4/6/01. By copy of this letter we are also notifying
the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers of our action. If you have any questions concerning the above or if
I can be of any other assistance, please advise.

The applicant is requesting renewal of the above referenced permit. I have no objection to the request,
and recommend the 5-year maintenance authorization, subject to the continuance of existing permit
conditions. Please ensure that the USACOE receives a copy of any permit renewal.
The applicant is also requesting to complete some channel maintenance prior to the beginning of the
summer season. He is proposing to complete the work with a barge mounted excavator and place the spoil
material on highground property within the boat yard. Once dry, the spoil material would be trucked off -
site to an upland disposal area. I am considering a Letter of Refinement to authorize this one-time change
from the permitted hydraulic methodology. Please advise if this is not appropriate.
