Team,
DMS and Baker are requesting approval of a minor conservation easement modification for the UT to Magness Creek
site. If you recall, they adjusted this crossing to a bridge during construction, which the IRT agreed with, but the
alignment appears to have caused some concerns for the landowner due to steep surrounding areas. Baker had to
remove a small portion of the buffer (0.028 ac) to allow for a turn lane for the landowner. This will only impact 60 linear
feet of the buffer, which will have 48.5 ft buffer width. There is still an average buffer width greater than 50 ft over the
135' of altered easement line. Please let me know if you have any concerns with this easement modification by Dec 28,
2022. The attachment has a full explanation and photos.
Thanks
Kim

Subject: [URL Verdict: Neutral][Non-DoD Source] Request for review of partiaICE release at the UT to Magness Stream
Restoration Project_100081
Kim,
I have attached a letter requesting that the IRT review and approve a CE modification that we had to do at the bridged
crossing of our UT to Magness Creek Stream Restoration Project. The letter explains the circumstances of this
modification, the results, and how it will have a minimal impact to project crediting, while at the same time having
significant results for safe utilization of the crossing. We are asking that the IRT review this information and approve of
this action; we will pursue the partial release upon the IRT's review and notification of approval.
Thank you for your consideration,
Micky
