D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1 a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
Realignment of the pipe with the roadway prism will allow the pipe to hydrate the downstream wetlands. The pipe replacment construction activities
will completed from the existing gravel path and surrounding disturbed area in order to avoid and minimize equipment wokring in wetlands to the
maximum practicable.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
Although wetlands will be avoided as much as possible, any equipment use in wetlands will utilize mats. Trees may need to be cleared for mat
installation but no grubbing will take place. See attached permit drawing.

5. Complete if Using a Permittee Responsible Mitigation Plan
5a. If using a permittee responsible mitigation plan, provide a description of the proposed mitigation plan.
The proposed replacement of the undersized 15-inch RCP with a new 30-inch RCP will restore the historic wetland hydrologic connection between
the two sides of the wetland separated by the existing gravel road. The existing undersized 15-RCP was installed at such an elevation that is too
high to allow for normal flows within the wetland. According to the USACE project manager, the restoration of the historic wetland hydrologic
connection between the portions of the wetland separated by the existing gravel road will provide necessary compensatory mitigation for project.

Project Description
SOF Marine Battalion Company/Team Facilities (P-1219) has been sited on a portion of the
MARSOC base property that required a new access road to serve the new buildings. The new
road will impact a small area of existing wetlands on each side as a result of the new road
section and shoulders width and cross drainage pipe required from the current gravel single
lane path there now. There is an existing 15 -inch reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) under the
existing gravel path that is undersized. The existing RCP will be replaced with a new 73 feet of
new 30 -inch RCP to accommodate flows form the approximately 13 -acre drainage area above
the existing pipe. A new fence will also be erected. The proposed culvert replacement project
will result in wetland fill impacts of approximately 2,484 ft' (0.057 acre). Equipment to be used
includes a bulldozer, backhoe, motor grader, and roller. Work is estimated to require thirty days
to complete.
The proposed replacement of the undersized 15 -inch RCP with a new 30 -inch RCP will restore
the historic wetland hydrologic connection between the two sides of the wetland separated by
the existing gravel road. The existing undersized 15 -RCP was installed at such an elevation
that is too high to allow for normal flows within the wetland. Based on personal communication
with Brad Shaver of the USACE on May 3, 2017, the restoration of the historic wetland
hydrologic connection between the portions of the wetland separated by the existing gravel road
will provide necessary compensatory mitigation for the proposed project. Additional
compensatory mitigation will not be required.
