PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Applicants proposes to use Nationwide
Permit 18 to fill 1/10 acre of wetlands on individual lots in
Indigo.Plantation. These lots are not useable unless cleared and
1/10 acre is filled . I
The project has been revigwed to determine impacts to water
quality. The following commends have been provided.
As with the Richard and Cathy Booth project (92364), this
Office objects to the use of Nationwide 18 for these six
projects. The placement of 251 cubic yards of fill material over
a 4,356 sq. ft. area would result in fill. approximately 1.8
inches deep. With the water table at or near the surface, this
would not be sufficient depth to render the site a non-wetland.
To be consistent with fill ac ivities on similar lots at Indigo,
these lots would require 1-3 If eet of fill material to make the
lots buildable. It is doubtful that impacts to these lots will
be limited to 1/10 acre. It }Is likely to assume that the entire
lots will be cleared, graded and planted with lawn grasses,
thereby completely eliminating the existing uses that these
wetlands currently provide. Cumulative impacts (including the
Booth lot) would total 0.7 aces of permitted fill and as much as
4.6 acres of estuarine fringe forest could be disturbed along 800
feet of salt marsh.
