My error. S3 is 35 feet and S15 is 54 feet.

Carson,
It appears that the impact lengths listed for S3 and S15 were switched on the revised PCN form from those listed on the
culvert design package and the erosion control plans. Please confirm that the proposed impact length for S3 is 35 feet
and for S15 is 54 feet or clarify the discrepancy.
Thanks,

Hi, Folks,
A bit of change in the construction plans: the engineering team was able to reduce the permanent stream
crossings from 5 to 3, and replace all planned double-barrel culverts with single -barrel culverts. Attached are
construction plans that show locations of culverts, crane pads, and erosion control fencing, as well as the
hydroCAD and culvert design plans. I updated the PCN Form to reflect the new stream impact calculations
and included a revised waters table with the same. Please also note that vegetation clearing within stream
buffers (25' on each side of every water) will be done by hand to avoid soil compaction by heavy machinery.
Amanda, you asked for acreage of forested area within iso feet of impacted streams that will be changed to
early successional community. That number is approximately 1.3 acres. Please note that that acreage includes
a 25' buffer on each side of S3 which will, as much as possible, be left as a rhododendron -heavy shrub
community. Note in the table that the plan is to cut tall trees and leave vegetation 15' and under outside of the
access road corridor for the trout buffer. That area comes to approximately o.o6 acre.
Please let us know as soon as possible if you have further questions or concerns, or if you have trouble opening
this file!
