Doug,
I've reviewed your application for the CSXT curve realignment project (DWR project # 20240254) and will need the
following information before I can finish processingyour request.
• Please provide cross section profiles for the two proposed 36" x 42" RCP culverts near Sta -5+00. These
should be buried below the elevation of the streambed by 20% of the diameter of the culvert in accordance
with Condition 11 of Water Quality General Certification No. 4135. The cross sections should show the
burial of the culverts relative to the elevation of the streambed.
The proposed 42" RCP near Sta +5+40 is not indicated as being on a jurisdictional stream in the narrative or
the PCN. However, on the culvert plan sheet the feature is labeled as an `existing stream' with 116 if of
stream impact. Please clarify.
• Based on the plan sheets it looks as though wetland impacts could be reduced or avoided if the signal
house was shifted slightly to the east. Please explain if this is feasible.
The project will be placed on hold if the requested information cannot not provided within 7 days. Please feel free
to reach out with any questions.
Thanks,
