4h. Comments
Proposed impacts have not changed from those previously permitted in 2019. The original request and acceptance letter were for stream and buffer
impacts. The 404 permit was issued in April 2019 and the 401 certification was issued in January 2020. The USACE did not require any stream
mitigation for this project and the DWR only required buffer mitigation. The buffer mitigation payment was processed in April 2022.
6. Buffer mitigation (State Regulated Riparian Buffer Rules) - required by DWR
6a. Will the project result in an impact within a protected riparian buffer that requires buffer mitigation? If yes, you must fill out this entire form - please contact DWR for more information.
