bent. There will be no permanent fill for the project.
1b. Specificallydescribe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:*
The temporary impacts are being requested to allow, as needed, for clean and effective removal of the epsting
bridge supports from dry v�rork environments. Effective erosion control measures will be used and maintained
I through project construction.
