Amy,
Per our discussion this morning at the site, the flood plain benches do appear to be stable with some veg already emerging.
Let's leave well enough alone. It's my determination that further floodplain bench work is not needed, other than seeding with
a native riparian mix as discussed. Let me know if you need anything further.

My main concern is the stability of the material that has been deposited there. If you and Dave agree that the material there is
stable and will stay there during high flows then I am ok with not installing them. If Dave doesn't get a warm and fuzzy after
going out to look at it, I think the best bet is to go ahead and install the benches per the permitted plans.

The contractor on B-5160 (bridge to culvert on Mt. Vernon in Rowan) is wrapping up work. The floodplain benches weren't
installed per plan but the area has flooded frequently and deposited natural floodplain material which is doing a good job at
maintaining the stream width. I've attached a few pictures of what it looks like today. Pictures 3627 and 3628 are upstream of
the culvert and 3629 is downstream.
Do you have any objections to us leaving it as is? Please let me know something by Friday, so they can wrap things up. Thanks.
