If you can send an overview with the ditches/impact areas and a cross section that would be perfect.

Thanks Kris.

I could send you something. Are you thinking a cross section or two?

Or more like an overview that shows all the ditches and the impact areas?

Thanks for the clarifications,

Based on this feedback, the impact will be 8,052 sf.

I think everyone understands this already, but these impacts are part of restoring 3,500 feet of tidal creek
(this project) and are a part of the bigger restoration work that is in the planning stages.

Kris,

Culverts do not sever jurisdiction, neither do berms for that matter. Tom Charles of this office visited
the site sometime in the past few months and made a jurisdictional call. In any event, measure from the
OHWM across the ditch and then down through the base of the ditch.

Thanks,

Liz

I just spoke with Rob and have been adding them up.

Each of the ditches has a culvert at the end that connects it to the canal. I am not sure if that
disconnect makes any difference in whether these count as jurisdictional.

In any case, there are 9 ditches with a total length of 1,350 feet.
2

The total impact depends on whether you measure the width at the bottom of ditch (2 feet) or the top,
or in the middle. If you look at aerial photography, I measure water width at about 3ft, in which case I get
4,050 sf or 0.09 acres... If you let me know what the standard is, I can make a more exact measurement.

Ok-that makes sense. Do you have the approximate acreage/square footage of fill that would be
required to fill the ditches? We would count that as open water impacts.

The proposed road does cross a number of existing field ditches. There will be no culverts
installed. The road will eventually serve as a dike to promote wetland restoration work to the west of this new
road (which will be over 1,000 acres). As a result, no culverts are needed at this time.

The proposed marsh will be at a similar elevation as the bottom of these ditches.There may be
some sections that are filled a little, and some that are lowered. Overall it should be be a minor change in
elevation.

Please let me know if this makes sense or if there are other questions.

Kris,

I'm having some trouble with the plans on this project. The application states that only high
ground will be excavated and filled as a result of the project. However, the plans show a proposed road to be
located to the west of the main ditch, but no information is provided about the proposed road where it crosses
the ditches. Are culverts proposed, or are the ditches under the road going to be filled? Also, in the area
marked as proposed marsh, will the ditches be filled there to match the grade of the new elevation contours?

I'm trying to figure out how to best permit this project.

Please provide the requested information at your convenience.

Thank you,

Liz,

I know you have already had some conversation with DCM and the NCCF about this
project. You should be receiving a paper copy of plans in the mail and our permit application. I though you
might like to have a digital copy of the plans to help facilitate your review. And to be honest, I also wanted you
to have my contact information in case any questions might come up.

I have placed a pdf of the plans onto my google drive site. I know that email links get
scrubbed from, so will also include the website address below the address comes without the https:// part).
