Subject: Comments on the Henson Crabtree Quarry Expansion Stream Location
Jennifer,
Here are my comments on the Quarry stream location project:
The question Iam answering im does this conceptual design seem like dwould produce a stable channel?
l. Would have been nice to see o bit more in terms of where structures (plan view might be, l realize h
was x conceptual p|un...
2. It is a good idea to utilize bed material from Stream I to "seed" the bypass channel,
3. 1 am concerned about the nature of the bank material on the north and western sides of the bypass channel where
there will boa near l:|slope,
4. The dimensions based oo the watershed size and curves seem good,
5. I um very concerned about the turn at station 0+00` they need to show with u eobezuutio how this is going to he
done,
a. Also concerned about the downstream tie~bz station 9+53.99
6. They talk uUtde about introducing pattern into the bypass ±botnhn( with structures, also lbclieve I may have aeoo
earlier somewhere they mention a 1.4 sinuosity mentioned, that would be high,
7. These next two observation are not what you were asking me but we can talk later about them:
i. 8 does not seem like the bypass channel makes op for the stream loss, and
ii. What does it mean if the relocated channel im within the pit expansion boundary?
1 will be out in the field Monday and Tuesday next week, but you are welcome \o call ng' personal mobile any time ...Al9-

Hope the training went well and see you Wednesday.
