Stephanie,
#2 The engineer listed grading of the road's shoulder slopes as a temporary buffer impact on the map. Its my
understanding that grading and re -vegetating in the Zone 2 Buffer is "allowed" or "exempt". On a previous project, I was
advised by DWR staff not to list this in the table of impacts.
#3 You have an amazing eye for detail. This was a challenging bit of accounting. The amount of Zone 1 impact requiring
mitigation at this location should be 1219 sqft.
According to DWR Buffer Interpretation/Clarification #2010-001, if both the buffer impact and wetland impact require
mitigation, then the wetland area should be subtracted from the buffer area prior to calculating the buffer
mitigation. So the impact to the Zone 1 Buffer is 1341 sqft, minus the 122 sqft portion that is also wetland (buffer
impact not requiring mitigation), leaves 1219 sqft of buffer impact that requires mitigation. This will cascade down to
the buffer mitigation calculations in Section 6, and 366 sqft less buffer mitigation should be required.
Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks.

Krissina,
I am currently reviewing the above reference project and the following items require verification in
order to complete the review process:
1. The Corps of Engineers must also verify the Nationwide Permit that is to be used to authorize
this project. [15A NCAC 02H .0502(a)(7)]
2. 1 noticed one item listed on the impact maps that are not on the PCN: Impact B1, Zone 2,
temporary impacts -1,894 square feet (Sheet EX -06)

3. On the PCN for B3, the wetland impact is listed on the buffer impact sheet (it is also listed as
W2), this impact is listed twice on the PCN?
