Good morning Mitchell and thanks for the quick review. Attached is an updated stream impact table. I did find it
strange that the permit application fee was higher than expected and now I know why. Please let me know if the
attached page with corrected stream impacts is sufficient, or if I need to do something differently. Also, with respect tc
the listed federally protected species, Quible can go and review the proposed impact areas for these species unless this
needs to be performed by USFWS staff? And, no there has not been a formal survey of any federally listed species in
these crossing locations that I am aware of.
I am going to be out of the office for a couple weeks, but if acceptable can provide a field review of the proposed
crossing at UT-2 and gravel driveway stabilization at Brush Creek when I return the first week of August.
Thanks,
Warren D. Eadus, P.G.

Hello Warren,
Thank you for submitting the PCN and providing this updated information.

Please ensure to provide an updated impact table that includes the bank stabilization as well. Also, the impact table
within the PCN states there will be 225 LF of permanent stream impact to UT-2. Plans state the impact is 22.5 LF. Please
ensure to correct this figure in the new table.

Further, this office has reviewed IPAC data provided by USFWS online services.
USFWS IPaC database identified six federally protected species as potentially occurring within the project area, including
the Gray bat, Northern long-eared bat, Mountain sweet pitcher -plant, Rock gnome lichen, Appalachian elktoe mussel,
and White irisette.
Are there any know occurrences of these species within the immediate vicinity of the culvert replacement and bank
stabilization area? Has a survey for these species been conducted? This inquiry is restricted to the permit action area
(culvert and bank stabilization work) and does not apply to the entire project area.
Please note, this project area is not located within know appalachain elktoe mussel critical habitat and is not likely
located in the project vicinity. Please provide a response to this request within 30 days of receipt.
Thank you,

Gentlemen,
Please find attached an updated plan and details sheet for the above referenced project. The attached plan updates the
proposed addition of some rock for bank stabilization along the driveway at Brush Creek. On our original plan we
showed the stabilization occurring on the adjacent property. That was not the intent —there will be no disturbance on
the adjacent property and this work would occur above the ordinary high water mark. Also, we have included some
details for the replacement culvert at UT-2. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
