SPECIAL CONDITIONS
a. The permittee understands and agrees that the document entitled "Final Mitigation Plan — Scout
Mitigation Site" dated August 2019 are incorporated and made part of this permit. Execution of
the work and terms given in the approved mitigation plan are a condition of this permit.
b. This Nationwide Permit verification does not imply approval of the suitability of this property for
compensatory mitigation for any particular project. The use of any portion of this site as
compensatory mitigation for a particular project will be determined during the permit review
process for that project.
c. Please be advised that if additional impacts to waters of the U.S., either on this property or
on/adjacent to this property and associated with this project/activity, are proposed at a later date,
those impacts will be combined with the current impacts to waters of the U.S. and will be reviewed
cumulatively. Generally, compensatory mitigation will be required if individual or cumulative
(i.e., past and present) losses or degradation of waters of the U.S. are greater than 150 linear feet
of perennial or intermittent stream channel and/or 0.1 acre of wetland. Additionally, cumulative
impacts that result in the loss or degradation of greater than 300 linear feet of perennial or
intermittent* stream channel, and/or 0.5 acre of wetland, will be processed under an Individual
Permit. This verification of the use of the Nationwide Permit Program for this project does not
imply that this office will necessarily approve any future proposal to impact waters of the U.S. on
this property and/or associated with this project/activity.
* The District Commander has the ability to waive the 300 linear foot limit for intermittent
streams on a case -by -case basis. All requests for waiver must be in writing and shall include
