Dear Mr. Setzer:
On March 17, 2011, I inspected the construction work on NC Highway 28 in Macon County. Construction
continues along most of the project with grading and pipe installation underway.
Please ensure that all sediment and erosion control structures are maintained and that seeding and mulching are
performed as needed to protect downstream waters. A copy of the inspection report is attached to this letter.
If you have questions, please call me at 828-296-4500.
Sincerely,
Michael R. Parker
Environmental Senior Specialist

Work underway on the project includes grading and pipe work.
Sediment and erosion control structures appear to be working properly.
All areas that have been graded and no construction has taken place in the last 14 day should be seeded and
mulched.
All erosion control devices should be checked for proper operation.
Continue to maintain erosion control devices and continue with seeding, matting and mulching as requved to
protect State surface waters.
