so that we may continue to review your project.
On May 18, 2011, David Timpy of the USACE wrote a letter stating that the project as proposed:
1) Needs to go through the avoidance and minimization process to provide justification for the
proposed wetland impacts. Are there no other upland alternatives for the two proposed lots
that will impact these wetlands?
2) In addition, it is the DWQ's understanding that the wetlands as shown on the plans does
NOT match the signed Jurisdictional Determination (JD). Please explain this variation.
Please include the DWQ in your response to the USACE's letter.
