Subject: Sediment Loss on U-2524C
Dave and Dave,
This email is to report sediment loss at Site 9 on U-2524C. The area recently received two and one half inches of rain
which resulted in silt fence failure. As a result, approximately four hundred square feet of wetlands received
approximately two to six inches of sediment. The contractor has agreed to repair the silt fence and make some field
adjustments to decrease run-off to that area. I have recommended that the contractor hand remove the sediment in
two unvegetated areas (approximately one third of the impacted site) while leaving the remaining vegetated area as is.
My opinion is that trying to remove the sediment from the vegetated areas would only further damage the wetland. Due
to the fact that my camera quit working I was not able to take pictures. However, the contractor should be emailing me
pictures which I plan to forward to you. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
Jerry Parker
