Avoidance and Minimization 31. Total temporary stream impacts: 145 la. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project: The wasting bridge is being replaced with a structure that is adequate for traffic needs in the same disturbed location. The structure was designed for the minimum size criteria to ensure safe conveyance of traffic on the secondary road. 1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques: The on -site stream (East Fork Overflow Creek) and UT to East Fork Overflow Creek will be diverted/dewatered while the new bridge structure and detour is constructed and the small UT is realigned. Erosion and sediment control measures will be installed prior to ground disturbance. Both of these measures will aid in prevention of sediment into downstream habitats. 2.
