Mr. Connet and Ms. Hanzel:
Since Lillette Granade's departure to law school, your project has landed on my desk. I will be sending a more
formal response to your PCN but I thought that I would give you all a head's up on review status.
The PCN is considered incomplete pending the following information:
1. Your PCN notes mitigation on-site through enhancement as well as payment to EEP for 160 linear
feet. Please include a copy of an acceptance letter from the NCEEP In-Lieu-Fee Program.
2. Please provide a copy of a draft Conservation Easement for the mitigation area as well as a draft
recordable map that clearly depicts the surveyed boundaries of the preservation areas. Keep in
mind that the third party easement holder must be approved by the Corps as an appropriate
easement holder. If you cannot find an easement holder, or you do not wish to use a Conservation
Easement, other legal mechanisms are available. Please see the attached link regarding
preservation mechanisms.
3. Please include a detailed planting plan for the riparian buffers, to include species and locations.
4. Please include more detailed plans and specifications for the stream enhancement (basic
Rosgen-type analysis, plans and profiles are acceptable).
5. Please submit your proposed schedule of construction and vegetation planting.
Please let me know if you have any questions. As is our procedure, if we do not receive this information within
30 days we will consider your application incomplete and probably pursue an alternative violation resolution via
restoration (culvert removal) and/or elevation to the EPA or the US Attorney General.
Sincerely,
Jennifer
