Good morning Mr. Clawson,
In review of the above mentioned project, several clarifications for this office will be required to complete the review.
1.
Your application currently states that there will be no impacts below full pond elevation. However, the sketch shows 3 feet of impacts in the lake. Please see attached Shoreline Stabilization
Application and resubmit this document with details on exact amount of sqft above AND below full pond elevation in the form in TOTAL as well as showing this in the plan drawing. Your
sketch also mentions 2 feet "going into the lake'. Please show impacts simply above and below full pond elevation and add it to the sqft impacts accordingly. (so the 2 feet needs to
be added to above or below full pond, wherever the 2 feet fall according to the full pond elevation).
1.
I need you to complete the Catawba River Basin Buffer Notification Form. (Attached)
In order for DWR to complete our review, please provide the information within 30 days of receipt of this email. Please note that DWR will consider the project on hold until receipt
of the information.
