E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:*
The wetlands were delineated first, the quarry roads were designed to avoid and minimize impacts, 4 of the 5
stream crossing are by bridges to avoid stream impact.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:*
All impacts were due to roads, the width of roads were narrowed as much as possible to minimize impacts and still
be safe for large trucks.
