Please give a brief project description below and include location information.*

This is a road widening for economic development at this property.The
two timber bridges will not be widened at this time.The wetland impact will
be road slope fill into an area adjacent to Crab Creek(road widening to
the other side of the road is not possible due to resistance from the land
owner on that side)that has traditionally been trampled down by cattle to
access crab creek as a watering source.
This is a low quality wetland due to its nature and being previously under-
drained by the farmer and the cattle intrusion.
Please give a couple of dates you are available for a meeting.
