Hello Sue and David, In response to Question 1 below our answer is "Yes, we intend to do a full pump around 24/7 (see notes 4 and 5 below from Sheet 12 of 12 of the Woodcroft design plans) unless a storm event of a sufficient magnitude requires the contractor to dismantle the diversion (see notes 6 and 7). NOTE' 1. PUMP AROUND PUMP ArJD HOSE SHALL ADEOLIATELY CONVEY BASEFLOw OEWATERING PUMP SHALL ADEOUA4TELy cEwAT F I. THE WOPK AREA AT THE OOWFNSTREAM Ik4PE RvIOUS BARRIER, 2. PUMP AROUND PUMP INTAKE END SHALL INCLUDE A FISH SCREEN TO PREVENT ENTRAINMENT OF FISH. S. UPSTREAM AND DOWNSTREAM LIMITS OF PUMP -AROUND OPERATION SHALL BE COORDINATED WITH CONSTRUCTION PHASING IN ORDER TO MINIMIZE THE LENGTH AND DURATION OF PUMPING_ 4. INSTALL TEMPORARY IMPERv1OU$ BARRIER_ PUMP. HOSE, AND STABILIZED OUTLET FOR PUMP -AROUND OPERATION AS DEPICTED UN 711E PLAN.

AND OPERATE AS NECESSARY TO REMOVE WATER WITHIN THE WORKZONE, DISCHARGING THROUGH THE BAG. G. A CONTINUOUS FLOW PATH SHALL BE MAINTAINED WITHIN THE STREAM CHANNEL AT ALL TIMES IN ORDER TO CONVEY OVERFLOW DURING STORM EVENTS. 7. IF A FLOOD EVENT IS FORECASTED TO EXCEED THE CAPACITY OF THE FLOW DIVERSION, CONTRACTOR MAY TEMPORARILY .DISMANTLE THE PUMP AROUND OPERATION ONCE DISTURBED AREAS ARE FULLY STA$ILIZED THROLTOH THE DURATION OF THE STORM EVENT, Regarding Question 2, it is not our intention to revegetate the Buffer Zones with an herbaceous -only cover type. Our intention is to restore the vegetation to the cover type that is currently present on site, "like for like". Please find the updated planting plan and accompanying figure attached which reflect Ms. Munzer's previous comments related to the Webster Road site. I hope these responses fully answer your questions. Please let me know if we can provide any additional information on the details of this project.

This seems to be a pretty large stream with a large watershed. You are proposing a complete pump around but I'm unclear if it will be used only during the days you are working, with water to be allowed back into the channel at night, weekends, etc) or if you are proposing to pump around 24/7 until the work is done? 2. It appears that the stream currently has a wooded buffer but that you are proposing only seeding with herbaceous plants upon project completion. Is that correct?
