Messrs. Clayton and Gonzales,
Thank you for your PCN and attached information, dated 5/5/2017 (received 5/8/2017), for the above referenced project. I have
reviewed the information and need clarification before proceeding with verifying the use of Nationwide Permit 29 (http://saw-
reg.usace.army.mil/NWP2017/2017NWP29.pdf). Please submit the requested information below (via e‐mail is fine) within 30 days
of receipt of this Notification, otherwise we may deny verification of the use of the Nationwide Permit or consider your
application withdrawn and close the file:
1) Your PCN included impacts to streams, however these and other potential jurisdictional boundaries have not been verified by
the USACE. Please submit a complete Jurisdictional Determination request (see attached), upon receipt of which we will schedule
a time for an on‐site verification. If the property has already been evaluated by a qualified environmental consultant, please
provide documentation of this evaluation including name of the firm, dates of evaluation, data sheets, maps/field sketches, etc;
once we receive this information we will determine if a verification site visit is necessary.
2) The following sections of the PCN are missing information required for our evaluation: F.5 and F.6.
3) The PCN must be signed by the applicant or agent (if agent authorization form is signed by applicant and provided).
4) Sheet 2 lists the culvert lengths as 51 l.f. and 47 l.f., consistent with the impact amounts listed in the PCN impacts S1 and S4,
respectively. Note that all impact amounts in the PCN and shown on the plans should be for linear feet of stream (centerline)
rather than culvert length. Please update Sheet 2 and the PCN (for all itemized impacts) accordingly.
5) Sheet 2 shows the proposed 42" culvert is oriented such that the stream channel exits the culvert aimed at a stream bank.
Please re-design the culvert to align with the up and downstream stream banks to avoid indirect impacts of erosion and sediment
loading into the stream. If slight re-alignment of the stream channel is necessary at either end of the culvert, please include
proposed cross sections of the stream re-alignment, include the stream impact footprint and the proposed channel alignment on
the plans, and itemize the length of stream impacted as a permanent impact on the PCN.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
-Dave Bailey
