Let me know if you need anything else.

This is the list I plan on using when selecting trees. I noticed the list also includes shrubs and flower plants. Can I select
anything from the list or does it just have to be "trees"?

Amy - Hopefully this answers your questions. If not let me know a time that will work for a call. Bill
1.Please provide a signed and dated copy of the application. If the application is not signed by the
owner/applicant, please provide an agent authorization letter delegating signature authority. A sample agent
authorization letter can be found on the USACE website. [15A NCAC 02H .0502(f)]
RESPONSE: Signed application page attached. Let me know if only sending the one page is acceptable. Yes,
this is all I need.
2.131ease clarify that any trees greater than 3 inches in diameter at breast height (DBH) removed from Zone 1 of
the Catawba River Buffer will be replaced using at least 2 species of native hardwood trees.
RESPONSE: Confirmed. I will replace any tree 3 inches in diameter removed with 2 species of hardwood
trees. You previously provided a list of acceptable trees. I will select from the list. I rechecked last night and
I'm lookine at approximately 6-8 trees. My assumption is I need to Dlant the trees somewhere within the 30
foot buffer. The native hardwood trees should be replanted in the area of the buffer from where they were
removed. Trees removed from Zone 2 (last 20' of the buffer)
3.Please clarify the location and extent of the buffer impacts from the construction of the stairs to Zone 1 and
Zone 2 of the Catawba River Buffer.
RESPONSE: Plan is to construct wooden stairs 4' wide from outside the buffer to the new 10'x12'
platform/deck. Plan is to build stairs using pressure treated stair stringers and treads, and installing 4' wide
landings using 4x4 posts. Stairs will extend from platform/deck to outside the buffer area. I'm trying to
minimize the number of trees taken down by routing the stairs between trees. Main area where I will remove
trees is in the area of the 10' x 12' platform/deck. If the stairs will be built through the entire 50' buffer, the
impact table needs be updated to reflect this. For example: 4' wide x 50' long = 200 square feet. Please
confirm and I will note these changes in the file (no need to send in a new buffer impact table).
