Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project. The erosional area is confined so smaller equipment will be used to make the repair. The use of smaller equipment should allow us to work mainly within the impacted area which will minimize further disturbance of the existing NRB. Thus, we expect that areas outside the erosional feature will be protected at all times. The impact area will be flagged to provide the contractor with a clear reference to the work zone so that existing vegetation with woody species are protected. 1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques. All construction will be utilizing small equipment because access is limited. Also, work will be done upland from the existing NRB which will minimize further impact to the area. 2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State 2a.
