For your review we have enclosed five copies of the PCN Application Form, Attachment A — Additional Information, USGS Quadrangle Map, site photos, bank stabilization detail, and the $240.00 application fee. The project titled " " consists of stabilizing a stream bank parallel to a sanitary sewer that has become eroded, resulting in exposed clean -out piping. This activity will occur in a sanitary sewer easement that has not been maintained in the last 10 years. The construction described in this permit application will result in approximately 6,5o6 square feet of Zone 1 and 416 square feet of Zone 2 buffer impacts within an unmaintained utility easement and 50 linear feet of stream disturbance. Please contact me with any questions regarding this permit application. Sincerely, Dewberry Engineers Inc. Mary T.
