Hello Andrew,
Carrie forwarded me your comments to which I am replying below:
Provide documentation that you, or Resource Institute, have authorization to perform the proposed
activities on the Tipton property. Note that the DWR received a Mutual Agreement for Stream
Restoration Project for the McCurry property, but not the Tipton property.
o I he I pton's are participating with the via through a "Agreernent to Allow Installation o[
Conservation Practices Nl[�C S forrn. I his signed c. ocurnent riot only allows work to occur on the
I pton tract, but also secures funding for such practices. We rneant to subrnit this docurnent in
the original application and did riot do so. Attached please find this signed forrn.
• Provide construction details or a narrative describing the temporary impacts associated with the Big Rock
Creek stream crossing.
o I he ternporary streanro crossing along I3ig [dock Creek, as shown on the plans will sirnply be a
„ford" type o[ crossing (see attached typical detail). I he crossing width will be approxirnately 1.5'
and the strearnbanks will be laid back to a 5:'1. slope or flatter to allow equilornent to cross and
carry rnaterials needed to stabilize I._ittle [dock Creek. I here are low lying power lines between I3ig
and I._ittle [dock Creek, for that reason a sr-naller excavator will need to be used to install these
practices. We expect this stabilization along I._ittle [dock Creek to happen quickly and no more than
1.-2 days, then the streanro crossing will be rernoved and stabilized. Stabilization o[ ternporary
crossing irnpacts will be replacing the soil that was rernoved and the area seeded, covered with
coconut matting, and livestaked irnrnediately.
Please let me know if you have any further questions. Feel free to reach me at the office at 423.727.4476. Thank you sir.
Sincerely,
