Approximately 96 % of the 6,761 LF of streams and 97 % of the 0.32 ac of wetlands on site will be avoided 1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques: Construction techniques will implement approved erosion control methods to avoid/minimize to onsite/adjacent offsite receiving conveyances. Crossings have been minimized using headwalls and 2:1 slopes to avoid additional impacts Utility crossings have been bored wherever possible. 2.
