Brad and Hannah,

We had the contractor verify their limits and hang additional high visibility flagging in the areas of
question during our October 12th ride through at the subject project. The area of disturbance (STA
21+00 L, IMG_9267) with the claw marks from the excavator is within the temporary fill impacts for
the detour. We informed the contractor that this area will have to be restored to natural grade. We
think this was a low spot that was catching sediment from some of the minor slope erosion. We
informed the contractor that they will need to be removing sediment from these areas with hand
equipment to minimize disturbance to the substrate and prevent permanent impact. The area where
the silt fence appeared to bow out past the permitted hand clearing limits (STA 21+50 to 22+50 L)
was located to in fact be beyond the limits by approximately 3’ (IMG_9268, stake with orange
flagging is edge of hand clearing). The contractor did not hand clear out beyond the limits, as this
area was already hand cleared by prior utility work. I told them to leave the silt fence where they
have it to minimize further disturbance as there is an existing berm that should prevent any material
from getting past our limits. We are continuing to educate this contractor on our standards for
locating limits. Please let me know if you have any comments or need any additional information.

Thanks,
