Attached, please find the following....
(1) a revised application in PDF format. The only changes that were made were to add the wetland impact under the
wetlands section (Section C-2 on the revised application). I could not make the changes on the original due to the fact
that I used the Esubmittal directly to the State and since I did not list any wetland impacts on the original application, I
could not add in the wetland impact.
(2) a graphic showing the wetland impact (a new graphic that was not in the original package).
(3) two graphics showing the buffer impacts (these graphics were not in the original package).
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks!!

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
This project consists of two road crossings which will be utilized to connect various portions of the development across two stream segments that
bisect portions of the subject property. These crossings will provide public access for the residents and other members of the general public.
Additionally, these crossings also allow the development to comply with fire codes for safety purposes. Additionally, these crossings were sized to
minimize impacts while also meeting the flow requirements for safe passage of water through the crossings. Additionally, all lot fill and other infrastruct
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
By designing the roads to occupy upland areas except where necessary to cross jurisdictional areas, most construction has been eliminated from the
stream areas. As mentioned above, all lot fill and other infrastructure was eliminated from the stream areas, jurisdictional impacts were avoided and
minimized.
