Attached please find a payment receipt and COE Mitigation Responsibility Form for mitigation requirements satisfied
through the EEP.
Please take a moment to review it and let me know if I may have overlooked something.
(Note that a portion of the non - riparian impacts will be mitigated using riparian credits from EEP. The receipt doesn't
explicitly show this, but the total riparian credit on the receipt is comprised of 0.82 acres for the D R non - riparian
requirement (of 1.82 acres total) and O.13 acres for the COE riparian wetland requirement).
The permittee will receive the original receipt and form by mail. We appreciate the opportunity to assist with your
client's mitigation needs.
Please let me know if you have any questions or need further assistance.
Sincerely,
Kelly
