19. PROJECT PURPOSE (Describe the reason or purpose of the project, see instructions):
SE BLOCKS 20-22 IF DREDGED AND/0R FILL MATERIAL IS TO BE DISCHARGE
20. REASON(S) FOR DISCHARGE
Earthen fill of 0.186 acres of Section 404 wetland area will provide highground area the proposed site
development that will be required to convert the site into a lumber yard. Limitations will result from the
use of large 18 Wheel Delivery Trucks to access the fenced in site, unload, turn around to reverse direction
and exit the lumber yard and site. The site has been designed to minimize the disturbance to guests at the
adjacent motel, so the delivery trucks will ingress and egress the site onto Whitemon road. The Hampton
Inn Motel is an existing use so the proposed use needs to conform as much as possible to recognize the

adjacent properties use by the public. The two outparcels adjacent to the motel site will be reserved for uses
that more closely match the use of the motel and to provide a buffer (or gradation) between these differing
uses.
The lumber will be stored within the lumber yard in various manners depending upon the nature of the
wood product and its susceptibility to weathering. The eventual sale of the lumber will entail the use of
private vehicles, and delivery trucks operated by the applicant. All of these vehicles will be required to be
loaded and turned around safely within the graveled area in the lumber yard.
Existing wetlands within the proposed gravel lumber yard happens toile located within the area that will
most likely be used by the delivery truck for turning around to egress the site. A minor portion of the
wetland area lies underneath a proposed building.
