Impact Justification and Mitigation 1. Avoidance and Minimization 1a Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project The Boardwalk is proposed to be built with a pre - fabricated bridge to span the width of the stream Piers will be used to support the bridge and minimize buffer impact A Conspan bridge system was selected to avoid impact on the stream channel and minimize buffer disturbance A 24 -foot span system was selected to cross the 4 -foot channel width and allow additional space to construct supporting foundation without impacting the stream channel All proposed utilities will be located within the fill material over the Conspan bridge system to avoid impact on the buffer and stream The stormwater pipes were located in such a way as to minimize the foot print of buffer impact while maintaining an obtuse angle of entry into the stream channel The sanitary sewer connection was located in such a way as to minimize the foot print of buffer impact while avoiding other existing utilities lb Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques Boardwalk piers will be field- located to avoid existing tree trunks and roots All boardwalk construction will be done with hand tools so that heavy machinery does not enter the buffer at this location The roadway crossing will be constructed without affecting the stream banks through use of a pre - fabricated system The road fill will then be placed over the bridge system to reach proposed grade of the road crossing over the existing stream Retaining walls will be used to minimize the amount of fill needed and the buffer impact 2.
