Erin — We have some questions on how to get you the info you need to finish the 401 review. Can
we set up a conference call for this afternoon? If so, could we do that between 3:00 and 4:00 this
afternoon? Or between now and 2:00? Monday is also an option. It should only take 15 minutes or
so. Please let me know if you have availability for this.

Subject: Cross Creek Ranch PCN - 401 Additional Information Request
Hi Jeff,
I have a few questions on the Cross Creek Ranch 401 permit application.

First, in reading through the mitigation plan submitted with the ePCN, I want to confirm it is the Final
Mitigation Plan. The footers note it as "Draft Mitigation Plan" and the 401/404 Section 4.1 (page 11)
was not updated to include stream impacts as it notes it would be.
Also based on the Cross Creek Ranch design plans, it appears that the UT1 culvert replacement and
the UT113 culvert installation are proposed at least partially within the existing stream channel
(Sheets 1.3.8 & 1.4.2). However, the PCN Impact Map Figures do not call out any crossing impacts. In
the Stream Impacts Table, were impacts associated with crossings lumped into the "relocation"
impacts total? If so, can you please provide the culvert impact length for each proposed crossing. For
the culvert replacement, the permanent impact would only be the difference in the structure
footprints (plus any temporary construction impact). The mitigation plan states that UT1 crossing
will be collocated within a utility easement and the landowner wants the UT113 usable for a public
road in the future if the property is subdivided. If you believe either crossing qualifies as an ag
crossing exemption, please provide a statement as why the crossing(s) are exempt.
Moving forward please callout all crossing impacts separately on PCN impact figures and tables, and
if applicable clearly state why crossing(s) qualify for Section 404 (f) exemption in the mitigation plan.
Please let me know if you have questions or would like to discuss anything.
Much appreciated,
