Mr. Brame,
Thank you for your PCN and attached information, dated and received 6/19/2018, for the above referenced project. I
have reviewed the information and need clarification before proceeding with verifying the use of Nationwide Permit
(NWP) 29 (http://saw-reg.usace.army.mil/NWP2017/2017NWP29.pdf). Please submit the requested information below
(via e-mail is fine) within 30 days of receipt of this Notification, otherwise we may deny verification of the use of the
Nationwide Permit or consider your application withdrawn and close the file:
1) Your PCN and plans propose a discharge of fill material into 0.209 acre of riparian, non-riverine wetlands for
road crossing and fill for Lots 6-11. Your avoidance and minimization efforts related to the road crossing fill
portion of the proposed impact (i.e. primarily within the existing farm road footprint) is noted. However:
a. You have not demonstrated avoidance and minimization for the proposed wetland impacts related to
Lots 6-11, as required by NWP General Conditions 23(a) and (b). For example, it is not clear that project
viability is dependent on the inclusion of 6 lots, when the overall development proposes 239. Please
provide additional information to this effect. If project plans are changed as a result of this evaluation,
please provide the updated PCN and plan sheets as necessary.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
-Dave Bailey
