Cyndi,
I don't know of Ian passed this info along to you, but I have talked to Monte and
he said that he will go with what we want as far as the stormwater pond in the
intermittent stream is concerned.
Thanks,
Lauren

I Lauren, I talked to Nikki this morning and now believe I/you should direct

Ian,
It appears that they did not include the 101 linear feet of stream impacts
for a stormwater pond (Impact #2) as a permanent impact. Seems to me
like a stormwater pond is a permanent impact even if it is intermittent
(Let me know otherwise).
Currently, there is a sediment basin where they intend to put the
stormwater pond (Impact #2). I think they should take the basin out and
restore stream at this location and move the proposed stormwater pond
outside of the stream. ,
I think we should require a stream restoration plan for impact #3 prior to
issuing an authorization. This should include the sequence of events in
taking the sediment basins out and installing the stormwater ponds. FYI,
DLR approved the basins that were on the E&SC plans but there were also no
streams on the plans.
Should they identify how they are in compliance with WS-IV rules?
Hopefully this was clear and not a waste of your time.
Thanks,
Lauren
