Ok, thanks for the heads up. I'll send this to our forest service contact to make them

Monte and Dave,
Prior to starting work, our contractor and inspectors were checking the status of some
of the permit sites. At the Lowery Mill Creek site (permit site 12), someone has logged
some of the timber in the floodplain and dropped a couple trees and a bunch of
branches in Lowery Mill Creek. We met on site on Tuesday and discussed with the
contractor. Our contractor is going to go ahead and clean up, due to risk of flooding
causing channel destabilization. This will happen prior to our permit meeting on the
30th. They won't have equipment on site that can do the clean up until Friday or early
next week. The plan is to remove the debris from the channel by hand as much as

possible and lift any large pieces with equipment. No equipment will be in the water,
and any disturbed banks will be stabilized. I've attached a few pictures showing the
debris in the channel and the floodplain. If the weather cooperates, we'll plan to hold
the environmental meeting in the field and you can check out the repaired site. If you
have questions, let me know.
