1. It is the opinion of this Office that the project cannot be permitted as currently presented. We
concur with the USACE,US EPA, and USFWS,that the project's purpose and need as a

(is),"The basic project purpose of the proposed development at Grandview Peaks is to provide
residential housing"
For this reason your permit application is hereby considered returned. Once you have redesigned your
project to address the problems and inadequacies with your application as it was submitted,you will need to
reapply for DWQ approval. This includes submitting a complete application package with the appropriate
fee.
