Subject: Blake Farm response to Corps RFAI
Emily, Joanne and Jennifer,
We have completed the final response to the Corps July 7 RFAI. Normally I drop off a copy of the document and just e-
mail the Word file to you. In this case, you do not have the hard copy yet but I wanted to provide DWQ with the weir
information to understand what we need to do with the 401. I've attached the Cover Letter (pdf), Response Submittal
(.doc) minus the attachments as they are too large to transmit via e-mail. Emily I have transmitted a complete set to you
via your FTP site. Jennifer and Joanne, I will mail you both a copy and/or try and send you a link to download from our
server; just let me know what is best.
As you know, the weir had been a topic of discussion and the applicant has chosen to remove it and monitor the
wetland area at the upper reach of ditch X-3. There is a narrative on page 3 that explains the concerns with ditch X-3
and a monitoring plan on page 6. I've also attached a map of the monitoring area which I had reviewed with Joanne and
Jennifer earlier (this one is shown on the current map with monitoring locations). The monitoring map/sheet is also
included in Appendix N.
Joanne and Jennifer it is my understanding you will need to modify or amend our 401 Certification. Do you need a
formal request or will you be utilizing our response to the Corps to as justification for the modification? If you do need a
formal request please let me know and I will draft that immediately.
Please let me know if you have any questions or need any additional information.
Thank you and have a great weekend,
David A. Syster
