Subject: Dutch Creek restoration - questions
Hi Adam and Jordan,
I'm reviewing the Dutch Creek project information now. We've got wild trout and hellbenders in Dutch
Creek, so there may be some restrictions on when and how you do the work. I've reached out to colleagues to
help me address those issues. But for now, I've a few questions-
• The PCN states that there are 4 crossings, but I only see 3 crossings on the plan set, and they all appear
to be fords. Can you identify where the 411, is? Why are so many crossings needed? It seems a bit
excessive on such a small section of stream.
• This is going to be a very messy project, as Dutch Creek is large and there are numerous instream
structures in the design. What can you do to control instream sediment liberation/loss?

Can you do the work on the small trib in the dry?
How wide will the planted buffer be?
Will the land stay in pasture?
Thanks,
Andrea
