Hi Ryan,
Thanks for providing the site notes for Arrington Bridge and Buffalo Branch and providing the requested information in
the previous email, I have no additional comments. Please submit photo documentation once the container cypress are
planted or include them in with the gauge data.
Thanks,
Casey

Sounds good, Todd. We will take a look at the data and get it to you all when it's successful. Also we can plant some
container cypress in those areas this dormant season.

Thanks Ryan. I appreciate the info. As we discussed, once we get the data from the gauges showing a successful
growing season, I'm fine to close it (rather than waiting until next fall). Unless we start getting a lot of rain soon, I
suspect that would be early in the next growing season.
As for the cattail areas, I do think it would be good to have some containerized cypress planted to kick-start those areas,
esp. since this would be the final opportunity to do so.
Also, were there field notes prepared for the meeting by any chance?
Thanks,
todd

Arrington Bridge III closeout site visit follow up:
We replaced all the HOBOs on 10/27 and plan to download and process the data after the growing season ends on 11/22.
I have attached a photo of the encroachment repair at the east end of the project where the dirt stockpile was. Between
last Monday and Thursday the pile was moved away from the easement so the new markers are much more obvious. We
will add signs to the PVC when we are out there again in November. We also mapped the cattail treatment areas where we
experienced tree mortality. Those areas are shown on the attached CCPV and represent 1.4 acres.
Please let me know if you'd like us to replant the cattail areas this winter.
Thanks,
Ryan Medric
