Comments:
D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
la. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project.
The crossing of the stream is located abutting Laura Duncan Road, within the road
ROW and on the grassed road shoulder to minimize vegetation removal and fill. The
crossing is perpendicular to the stream flow direction.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
Appropriate sediment and erosion controls will be used during this project, and tree
protection fence will be installed to minimize impacts to existing vegetation outside
the work area.
E. Diffuse Flow Plan
la. What type of SCM are you providing?*
Level Spreader
Vegetated Conveyance (lower SHWT)
Wetland Swale (higher SHWT)
Proposed project will not create concentrated stormwater flow through the buffer
Other SCM that removed minimum of 30% nitrogen
