Mr. Moore,
The attached electronically signed form is the best we could do recently for a signed agent authorization form. All are
trying to keep from meeting in person when possible due to current events. If a hand signed form is required please let
me know. You can contact Mr. Sluder by phone at [phone] if it would help get authorization.
Regarding Condition 11.9., equipment will only be allowed to work from the top of the bank. The stream is too deep to
be able to reasonably use sandbags, rock berms, or cofferdams without increasing sedimentation through installation
and removal of such measures.
Thank you,
Jake Stokes, P.E.
