Re: Reservation of Compensatory Non - Riparian Wetland Mitigation Credits
Project: The Marketplace at Tramway
Corps AID #: 201101375
DWQ Proj #: 20120280
This document confirms that The Market Place at Tramway, Bobby Branch (Applicant) has
reserved for purchase up to 4.34 non - riparian wetland mitigation credits from the Barra Farms
Phase II Wetland Mitigation Bank.
Restoration Systems (RS) attests to the fact that 4.34 non - riparian wetland credits are currently
available for immediate transfer from its Official Bank Credit Ledger to Applicant and that as of
this date RS has placed 4.34 non - riparian wetland credits into "no- sale " - reservation status
under the name of the project referenced on this document (Project).
These 4.34 non - riparian wetland credits will remain in reservation status until payment in full is
received from the Applicant, resulting in the issuance of a Credit Transfer Certificate by RS
acknowledging that the applicant has fully secured credits from the bank and RS has accepted
full responsibility for the mitigation obligation requiring the credits. If RS does not receive
payment in full for the Mitigation Credits within thirty (30) prior to the initiation of Project
construction, RS has the right to terminate this Reservation Letter, in which case RS will have no
further obligation to provide mitigation credits to the Applicant.
The Marketplace at Tramway — Compensatory Mitigation — RS
RS will issue the Transfer Certificate within ten (10) days of receipt of the Purchase Price. RS
shall provide to Applicant the Transfer Certificate debiting credits from the Bank Official Credit
Ledger showing the permit number and the resource type secured by the applicant, and will
send an a copy of the Transfer Certificate with an updated Official Credit Ledger to regulatory
agencies showing the proper documentation.
