Jay -----Original Message----- From: Shaver, Brad E SAW \[mailto:Brad.E.Shaver@usace.army.mil\] Sent: Thursday, May 14, 2015 9:50 AM To: Jay Keller 1 Subject: RE: \[EXTERNAL\] Vietnam Veterans Memorial- Jacksonville; AID 2008-737 (UNCLASSIFIED) Classification: UNCLASSIFIED Caveats: NONE Jay, Thanks for speaking with me. My initial take is that the numbers presented do not meet the thresholds allowed under NW 18 but I don't believe those numbers represent what is going on at the site. Please read back through the cover letter, EDA impact summary sheet, and PCN to make sure the numbers and descriptions of work all say the same thing. Some specific comments are below: - What is the temp impact associated with the pedestrian bridge? If this is typical bridge construction the pilings should span the thalweg of the channel and if located below the jurisdictional boundary the driving of pilings should not be more than de minimus and thus not be considered an impact. There will be no impacts associated with this pedestrian bridge. The bridge will be free-standing and have footers on the top-side of the incised channel. - Excavation in the PCN is described to include storm water culvert outlets which according to the plans have been moved outside the jurisdictional boundary and thus there is no impact, right? Correct, the stormwater outlets are beyond the jurisdictional boundary. - The PCN description of the work states the need for a rip rap apron on the outlet of the culvert crossing, this is neither shown on the drawings or enumerated in the PCN impact table. Please make sure the EDA impact summery table mirrors the PCN table. I verified with the engineer that no rip-rap apron is required nor planned. -Since these features aren't truly wetlands or streams please list the impacts in section 4 open water impacts and label accordingly as tributaries. - As I suspect you will need temporary excavation at the end of the culvert installs please label appropriately on the PCN and EDA impact summary. 2 Correct, the channel bottom will be excavated for proper placement. Then the culverts, endwall & remaining fill will be placed in this footprint. I think the key here is consistency, please make sure everything describes the impact the same. Again I will be here today and if I don't complete today my next opportunity will not be until next Friday, just a heads up. Call back if you have any other questions. Again an electronic copy is fine as I intend on transmitting the verification electronically.

Attached are the items that were submitted to Raleigh's central office. It's a fairly simple NWP 18 request for 2 stream crossings and stormwater outlets. The pedestrian crossing will be a bridge but with some temporary impacts during construction. The driveway crossing is ~3,500SF for a service road. Could you provide us some correspondence verifying no written authorization required? This will help them with their upcoming ground-breaking ceremony. Call me with any questions and thanks again for your help.

I briefly went through the email and its contents and did generate some comments that if addressed may keep the package from being returned for clarification. Whereas Architectural drawings are nice they are not great permit drawings due to their clutter. Please assure that the permit drawings are simple showing the jurisdictional boundaries and the placement of the work. The permit drawings do not need all the topo lines which make it hard to clearly view. Label the impact areas with the same nomenclature you utilize in the PCN table and label them clearly on the overview plan sheet. Then move onto the focused plan view with cross section. For the culvert crossing please indicate pipe size, whether or not burial is proposed (dependent on feature its within stream or wetland), and finally whether temporary impact will be necessary to install the pipe (typically so if the pipe will be buried). It looks like both features to be impacted have a dot dash on the JD map which indicates that there may be at least a tributary system within the jurisdictional boundary. To better characterize the feature I encourage you to rate the system with the DWQ stream rating form so we have a better idea whether these features have any stream characteristics or not. When I last signed the map I did not necessarily characterize the features inside the boundary line as that effort should always come during permitting. Hope this helps and give me a call if you gave any questions, Brad -----Original Message----- From: Jay Keller \[mailto:jay@kellerenvironmental.com <mailto:jay@kellerenvironmental.com> \] Sent: Saturday, January 24, 2015 11:43 AM To: Shaver, Brad E SAW Subject: \[EXTERNAL\] Vietnam Veterans Memorial- Jacksonville; AID 2008-737 Hello Brad & hope you're doing well, it's been awhile.
