Request for Additional Information - UT Three Top Creek Restoration
Good afternoon Laura,
Thanks for the phone call today. As discussed, please see the requested additional information below. Please provide a
complete response within 30 days of receipt of this email. Please note that your application will be considered "on -hold"
until a complete response is received.
1) In the PCN Section D.1, you indicated the stream impacts will be 636 linear feet of temporary impact for
restoration/stabilization. Please note that even impacts that will result in overall ecological uplift such as the
ones proposed for this project are considered "permanent" impacts. Temporary impacts generally include
impacts such as those required for construction access or dewatering during construction that will be returned
to pre -construction conditions and contours once construction is complete. Please revise the PCN form to
include all permanent impacts, including restoration, enhancement, and bank stabilization.
2) If any temporary impacts (e.g., dewatering devices, temporary crossings, etc.) are required outside of the
permanent restoration improvement area, please denote and quantify these impact lengths as well, both in the
PCN impact table and in the site plan/exhibits.
3) If any modifications to the existing roads proposed for construction access are required that would impact the
wetlands or other surface waters (e.g., road widening, culvert replacement or removal, etc.), please include
these impacts and quantities as well.
4) It appears that the proposed stockpile area between the existing construction access road and the wetland is very
close (less than 30 feet) from the wetland edge. Please provide additional information and/or figures on how you
will prevent any loss of stockpiled/fill material into the wetland, or revise the site plan to relocate the stockpile
further from surface waters.
Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or wish to discuss.
Thank you,
Seren Homer (she/her)
