Dear Ian:
We have received your letter dated September 22, 2010 in which a compensatory
mitigation plan for mechanized clearing within wetlands was requested. The request was
based on our classification of the impact as mechanized clearing.
During construction, the contractor will have to remove a portion, or possibly all of the
trees within the construction corridor as shown on the plans in order to accommodate
installation of the proposed utilities. The Clearing and Grubbing section of the project
manual states:
1.01 CLEARING AND GRUBBING
A. Clear total width of permanent easement. Clear within temporary
construction easement only as necessary for construction.
B. Grub within the permanent easement only as necessary for the installation of
the work. Do not grub within the temporary construction easement.
C. Clear and grub area within the proposed fence line of the pump stations.
D. Clearing shall consist of cutting and removal of vegetation to the existing
ground surface and removal of debris. Debris shall include, but not be limited
to, fences, steps, walls, chimneys, footings, foundation slabs, basements,
signs, junked vehicles, and other rubble.
E. Grubbing shall consist of the removal of roots over 3 inches in diameter,
matted roots, stumps, and other vegetable matter to 12 inches below existing
grade.
As a result, the stumps located beyond the permanent maintenance corridor will remain in
350 North Cox Street Suite 26 place allowing new growth to sprout. Over time, these areas will return to forested
Asheboro NC 27203 wetlands. In addition, since wetland areas within the construction corridor will be
returned to preconstruction elevations, disturbed areas will remain wetlands.

Due to NCDENR rules requiring the City to have access to all sewer lines, the City must
maintain a 10-foot wide corridor. This corridor will be mowed periodically but will
function as herbaceous wetlands. This is the only permanent impact to the wetlands.
Enclosed is a revised Wetland Impact Table for Part C. Proposed Impacts Inventory
submitted with the PCN. On this table the temporary impact to wetlands has been revised
from mechanized clearing to hand clearing.
Please review the submittal and contact us with your approval; or if you have questions,
comments or require additional information.
Sincerely,

2. Wetland Impacts.
'Revised 9/2/10 to reflect 10' maintenance corridor within wetlands throughout except 15' maintenance corridor at impact shown on Sheet 27 at station
7+00 due to parallel utilities with 10' seperation. Impact shown on Sheet 33 at Station 34+25 revised to temporary since no conversion of wetland type
will occur due to maintenance corridor.
`Revised 9/23/10, mechanized clearing only within 10' maintenance corridor within wetlands throughout except 15' maintenance corridor at impact shown
on Sheet 27 at station 7+00 due to parallel utilities with 10' seperation. Remainder of clearing within wetlands will be by hand clearing, leaving stumps to
allow reforestation of area.
