Jason,

Thanks for letting us review your proposal. Fundamentally I do not have an issue with your strategy which is consistent
with what we have discussed to date. When you submit the PCN please include your restoration plan which would
include your reforestation plan and monitoring strategy.

I have a question regarding your current drawing set. The current plan calls for 0.21 of an acre of "temporary fill
reforestation", is this area in the same alignment as the old utility corridor and will it be restored in a similar manner as
the "hand clearing reforestation"? You have not requested any credit toward the 0.99 of an acre conversion impact,
what is the difference between the two?

Brad

Brad,

We have finally gotten the permit drawings corrected and I am looking into our mitigation options for the project.
Currently we have 0.53 acre of permanent wetland impact due to the bridge replacement/roadway work. We propose
to mitigate this at 2:1 through DMS. There is an additional 0.99 acre of hand clearing. NCDOT proposes to restore
handcleared areas along the onsite detour route to offset some of this impact. We've calculated once the utility has
been relocated and the detour removed, there would be an 0.30 ac of handclearing that could be restored. This is not
including the area of temporary impact (0.21 ac) due to the detour that will also be restored. This would reduce the
handclearing impact to 0.69 acre. NCDOT proposes to mitigate this remaining impact at ½:1. Attached are drawings
showing the areas discussed.

Please let me know your thoughts on this. Once we've determined the amount of mitigation we will be required to
provide, I can pursue acceptance from DMS and should be able to submit the revised permit application.

Thank you,

Jason
