Re: Shoreline Stabilization project and vegetation replacement within the FERC.
Project boundary, at Lake Glenville, in Jackson County NC.
Dear Mr. Beech:
It was a pleasure to speak with you today about your plans to stabilize the shoreline in
front of your property on Lake Glenville. This letter will serve as permission to stabilize
the shoreline, provided all request are met and all current shoreline management
guidelines are followed.
Jeff, I have inspected the property in question and have observed that vegetation has been
removed from Duke Power property.
During our conversation today, I ask that you replace the vegetation that was removed
with native trees and shrubs. The total number of trees and shrubs will be no less than
14 (fourteen) native trees/shrubs.
I also noticed that several of the trees that were cut by you or your contractor, were young
hard wood trees of varying height. These trees will need to be replaced with a native tree
that will when mature, reach the same canopy height as those taken out.
What this means is. Not less than eight of the total number of the 14 trees/shrubs
must be hard wood trees, no less than 2 inches in diameter at breast height.
The remainder of the trees/shrubs must be not less than three years old.
I have requested that a Duke Power Shoreline Management Guideline book be included
in the application packet. Please take time to review the vegetation Management section
of the book. There you will find several pages of native plants that are acceptable for use
in your plantings.
Please notify this office when you are finished planting at the number below.
040197
Also, should you or your contractor have any questions please contact me. This letter is
Duke Power Lake Management's approval for you to start the stabilization permit
process. I will re-inspect the projects (plantings and stabilization) after they have been
completed.
Sincer y,
Dale R. Mosteller
Duke Power Company
Nantahala Area Lake Manager
