Joanne,
Please see page 3 in the attached letter; I have highlighted it in yellow, and flagged the two linear feet numbers with
tags with notes indicating the corrections. Also, the attached figure has the correction on the labels: "Intermittent
Stream, 361 linear feet- (Temporary impact for 291 If, 70 If permanent) ".
Thank you all for your time and assistance.
Jason

Thanks for going to work on this for the Base. Some answers: (1) Fence construction will comprise post holes and /or
driving posts into ground. (2) yes, the culvert will go under the road, (3) we hereby revise our request for 291 linear feet
of stream impact, and 70 feet of permanent impact (although I don't believe that the piped water would have no
ecological function and should be mitigated at a lower ratio, but that's another discussion), and (4) mitigation will be at
an off -site bank (we understand we need to secure the capacity /credits).
Appreciate it very much,
Respectfully,
Jason E

Jason,
I was able to finally dive into the modification request I received last Thursday. I am beginning to craft an email
to resource and other permitting agencies requesting comments but I want to make sure I completely understand the
impacts. You provide tables that clearly enumerate wetland impacts but I am somewhat confused about impacts to
streams. As you recall, the surface water within WI was classified as an intermittent stream based on the initial
jurisdictional determination completed by my predecessor. That understood you mention in your write up that there
would be 361 linear feet of temporary impact for fence construction. What is the nature of this temporary impact below
the ordinary high water mark? Additionally, am I correct in assuming where the proposed road crosses the intermittent
stream you are piping 70 linear feet of stream channel (which we would consider a loss)? I want to be clear what the
impacts are so that I may give some thought to what the mitigation may need to be.
Regarding mitigation, there is no mention about quality or ratios so I assume upfront that you are requesting
mitigation from a local mitigation bank at a 2:1 ratio since the mitigation is coming from off -site. This reservation of
credits needs to be secured before a permit decision can be rendered.
I will be soliciting comments not only from resource agencies but also permitting agencies. I will need to have a
modified 401 water quality certification and either a modified consistency or confirmation that the initial consistency
will still apply.
I look forward to getting your answers to these questions so I can continue processing the request.
Thanks,
Brad
