Hello Dave,
I know we spoke about this project before you submitted the PCN, but in previous discussions I did not review the
proposed design carefully. Now that I have reviewed the application in detail, I require additional information to
complete my review of the application. Please address the items below within 30 days of receipt of this email. Please
note that the application will be considered "on hold" until a complete response is received.
1. The Division typically requires that work be conducted so that the flowing channel does not come in contact
with the work area in order to ensure protection of downstream water quality. Please explain how the channel
work will be completed to meet this requirement.
2. The plans proposed for the channel to be restored using erosion control matting within the streambed. The
Division does not allow for matting within the streambed. Please revise the plans to show matting above the
normal water line.
3. The impact table provided in the application indicates 203 feet of bank stabilization and 55 feet of culvert
extension. Since the proposed project involves excavation and reconstruction of the stream bed, please provide
an updated impact table showing the length of stream channel that is to be reconstructed as part of the
work. Any bank stabilization beyond the streambed reconstruction should be listed separately as bank
stabilization impacts.
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding these items.
Thanks,
Sue Homewood (she/her/hers)
