Mr. Baumgartner,
The 30 -day comment review period for the Browns Summit Creek Mitigation project (USACE AID SAW 2014 - 01642, DMS
Project # 96313) closed on July 15, 2015. All comments that were posted on the Mitigation Plan Review Portal during
the review process are attached for your records. Additionally, comments can be reviewed on the Mitigation Plan
Review Portal (utilizing the excel option).
We have evaluated the comments generated during the review period, and determined that the concerns raised during
the review are significant enough that we cannot approve the project without first reviewing proposed revisions to the
draft document that addresses the issues raised. Please provide responses to the concerns, including any proposed
revisions to the text of the Draft Mitigation Plan. We do not need a complete copy of the Draft Mitigation Plan, just the
proposed revisions, which can be provided electronically if you prefer. Once we have reviewed and concurred with
proposed changes, we will be able continue with the review process, and provide the IRT with notification that we
intend to approve the Mitigation Plan. After approval, the revisions will need to be included in the Final Mitigation Plan
to be submitted with the PCN application. Please note that the 60 -day intent to approve deadline is August 15th. Please
let us know if you need additional time to prepare a response to these concerns so that we can adjust this deadline if
necessary.
Please let us know if you have any questions about specific comments, this process, or additional information that is
requested. We will continue to coordinate with you on this project in an effort to resolve concerns quickly.
