D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
la. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project.*
Steps were inset in the proposed retaining wall in order to reduce the impact of the
wall in the Zone 2 area. All ground filled behind new wall will remain planting beds
planted with vegetation (bushes / trees) that will have better impact on the buffer
area than the original grasses existing. Also all filled areas will remain porous. There
will be no impervious area added by this project other than the wall thickness itself.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.*
The only equipment used will be a mini excavator and it remain in Zone 2
throughout the project. There is no need to disturb Zone 1. If the any erosion
potential occurs throughout the project, a continuous silt fence will be established
on the Zone 1 to Zone 2 line to stop all materials from entering the river waterway.
Based on the level and flatness of the lot as well as the existing soil conditions which
are sandy, this is expected to not be an issue at all.
E. Diffuse Flow Plan
la. What type of SCM are you providing?*
r- Level Spreader
r- Vegetated Conveyance (lower SHWT)
✓ Wetland Swale (higher SHWT)
r% Proposed project will not create concentrated stormwater flow through the
buffer
✓ Other SCM that removed minimum of 30% nitrogen
