Yes we have. Kevin Holland from Duke has been onsite and met with the contractor to review what we wanted to do. My understanding was that Kevin was supportive • Do you understand your project must comply with Duke's Shoreline Management Guidelines? Yes we do understand. • Picture A shows a very shallow eroded bank. Hardening lake shorelines can cause the transfer of erosive actions downshore. Increasing the vegetated buffer in an area with erosion characteristics like in picture A may be a better solution. Have you considered planting more native vegetation as opposed installing rip -rap? Native vegetation provides increased habitat for aquatic and terrestrial life, shading for aquatic life and increased food for many species. We originally wanted to have the entire boulder wall like the rest of the neighbors. After consulting with Duke and the contractor, we felt a little bit of rip rap was the best solution. Picture A was just one snap shot there are other sections where we plan to put rip rap that is more eroded. We just wanted to give you all a sense of the extremes. • Who will you be doing the work? The work will be done by Ben Odom who is on the Duke list. Ben has met with Kevin on -site Thanks, Chuck *************** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ** Chuck Cranford Assistant Regional Supervisor, Water Quality Regional Operations Division of Water Resources Asheville Regional Office 2090 U.S. 70 Highway Swannanoa, NC 28778 Tel: 828 - 296 -4500 Fax: 828 - 299 -7043 chuck.cranford @ncdenr.gov Email correspondence to and from this address is subject to the North Carolina Public Records Law and may be disclosed to third parties unless the content is exempt by statute or other regulation. +___ ------------------------------------------------------------ _________+ This email is confidential and may be privileged.
