Dang! My first sentence should read: Brad and I have discussed this email and we think you meant FSA as the
Jurisdictional (JS)feature, as we remembered you pointed out that the FSA feature was a JS non-mit.

Mason,
Brad and I have discussed this email and we think you meant FSA as the Jurisdictional (JS)feature, as we remembered
you pointed out that the FSJ feature was a JS non-mit. With this as reference:
The DWR would agree that your proposal for the relocation of the jurisdictional feature into a channel with a floodplain
bench and vegetation would be self mitigating and that if the new channel doesn't match the length of the impacts,the
remaining balance would acquired through a mitigation bank at a 1:1 ratio.
Please let me know if I can be of further assistance

Subject: U-4751/R-3300A 1-140 Interchange
Per our field visit and discussion today, the construction of the 1-140 interchange on U-4751/R-3000, requires the
relocation of feature FSJ (see PJD map below). Based on the draft permit drawings, 1277 If of this mitigable stream will
need to be relocated as shown on the attached permit drawings. The relocation is currently identified as Site 6. As
observed today,the current feature is a low quality stream feature adjacent to the old Crooked Pine Rd. The Division
would like to propose that the linear feet of relocated channel be allowed to be used to offset the impacts that will
occur to the existing channel. The Division would consider creating a floodplain bench adjacent to the new thalweg that
can be seeded with native riparian seed mixture and reforestation along the banks for shading and stability, if the new
channel could be used to the offset impacts. I do not know the length of the new channel but the Division would try to
match the impact length or acquire mitigation at 1:1 for the difference in impacts, if needed.
Please let me know if this proposal is acceptable for your respective agencies, so I can start coordination with the
designers.
Thank you!
