TIP # 1-5507
Action ID# SAW-2013-02330
NCDWR # 20191337
Permit Site # 37A
A sediment loss was discovered at permit site 37A.
We instructed the company on Tuesday, August 8, to remove sediment and gravel deposits from the stream channel.
On Wednesday, August 9, the company reported that 68 five -gallon buckets of sediment were removed from the stream
channel.
Because of the rain the area received the morning of August 10, we will reinspect the site to make sure the site did not
have another sediment loss and to confirm the cleanup efforts are adequate.

A sediment loss was discovered in the wetland adjacent to the inlet of the new culvert. We instructed the company on
Wednesday, August 9, to remove the sediment from the wetland. The wetland area impacted is approximately 60
square feet. A bucket count will be provided as soon as the contractor completes the cleanup efforts.
Sediment deposits were discovered in the stream channel downstream of the new culvert. It appears mud in the culvert
was flushed out during the last rain event. We instructed the company on Wednesday, August 9, to remove the
sediment from the channel at two locations. A bucket count will be provided as soon as the contractor completes the
cleanup efforts.
