10 INTRODUCTION

11 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Schoharie County (County) is planning to build a new County Public Safety Complex at 373

Howes Cave Road Schoharie New York and will need to update the utilities as a result The

County retained LaBella Associates DPC (LaBella) to perform a wetland and stream

delineation along the Right of Way ROW for the proposed Utility Corridor expansion (Site) For

the purposes of the wetland and stream delineation the Project Study Area (SA) was defined as

an approximate 28‐Acre corridor along Howes Cave Road and County Route 7 Please refer to

Figures 1 2 and 3A through 3E for the Site location and SA dimensions The geographic

coordinates of the approximate SA center were 42683101deg (Latitude) ‐74383403deg (Longitude)

(WGS84) This wetland delineation report includes the results of the wetland delineation of the

SA performed on October 25th 2017

12 PURPOSE

This report was prepared for the purpose of obtaining concurrence from the US Army Corps of

Engineers (USACE) ndash New York District on jurisdictional wetland boundaries within the SA in

support of the Project Specific tasks performed for this report included a field delineation of

potential state and federal jurisdictional waters within the SA a survey of jurisdictional water

boundaries and a detailed description of jurisdictional waters based on hydrology vegetation

and soils information collected in the field

This report describes the results of the delineation and documentation efforts performed by

LaBella and a description of the wetlands that were delineated This document is intended to

provide the information required to support a Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination with the

USACE

22 JURISDICTIONAL AREA DELINEATION

LaBella performed the wetland delineation within the SA on Octo

section 11 for a description of the SA The wetland delineation

with the methods presented in the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetl

ber 25th 2017 Refer to

was performed in accordance

and Delineation Manual (1987

Manual) as supplemented by the Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland

Delineation Manual Northcentral and Northeast Region Version 20 (Environmental Laboratory

2012) (Regional Supplement)

Wetland boundaries were defined in the field with sequentially‐numbered pink surveyorrsquos

flagging or pink pin flags printed with lsquowetland delineationrsquo Each flag was located using a

Trimble GeoXH sub‐foot GPS unit Data and observations were collected from five (5) wetland

sample plots (lsquoData Pointsrsquo) and five (5) upland Data Points within the SA These data points

were recorded on Regional Supplement Routine Wetland Data Forms (Appendix B) The data

points were adequate to characterize the cover types within the SA and were used to compare

wetland conditions to upland conditions in the SA

The wetland vegetative community data collection process focused on dominant plant species

in four (4) strata trees saplingsshrubs herbaceous species and woody vines Dominant

species for each stratum were chosen by visually estimating the percentage of aerial coverage

by species Species within each stratum were then ranked by percent cover within defined

plots This was performed independently in each stratum The sample plot was a 30‐foot

radius circle for the tree stratum a 15‐foot radius for the sapling shrub stratum a 5‐foot radius

for the herb stratum and a 15‐foot radius for the woody vine stratum Dominant species in

each stratum were then identified as those top‐ranking species that when cumulatively

totaled had cover percentages exceeding 50 percent of the total cover for that stratum and

any additional species comprising 20 percent or more of the total percent cover for that

stratum After the dominant species in each stratum were chosen the hydrophytic community

determination was made using the three determination methods listed in the Regional

Supplement Rapid Test for Hydrophytic Vegetation the Dominance Test and the Prevalence

Index

Information concerning soil series drainage classification texture and matrix and mottle color

was obtained for the SA This information was used to determine which hydric soil indicators

would likely be encountered during field work Hydric soils are those that are saturated

flooded or ponded long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions

Hydric soils are poorly drained and their presence is indicative of the likely occurrence of

wetlands (Environmental Laboratory 1987) Hydric soils indicators were identified in the field

through observation of composition color and morphology in accordance with the Regional

Supplement and NRCS Hydric Soils Manual (USDA NRCS 2017) Soil colors were determined

using Munsell Soil Charts (Kollmorgen Corp 1988)

Wetland hydrology indicators (both primary and secondary) were identified in the field in

accordance with the Regional Supplement Representative photographs were taken of the

delineated wetlands within the SA and are included in Appendix C

33 HYDROLOGY

Waters of the United States (Waters) as defined by the USACE include all lakes ponds

streams (intermittent and perennial) and wetlands Wetlands are defined in Section 404 of the

Clean Water Act as ldquothose areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater at a

frequency and duration sufficient to support and under normal circumstances do support a

relevance of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions (EPA 2001)rdquo

Jurisdictional wetlands are defined by the presence of three criteria hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and evidence of wetland hydrology during the growing season (Environmental

Laboratory 1987) All jurisdictional boundaries are subject to verification by the USACE The

jurisdictional status of all Waters will ultimately be determined by the USACE ndash New York

District

The SA is located in the Schoharie Watershed (USGS Hydrologic Unit 02020005) of the Upper

Hudson River basin At the time of the site visit the SA contained two (2) PSS wetlands

(Wetland‐AA and Wetland‐AC) three (3) PEM wetlands (Wetland‐AD Wetland‐AE and

Wetland AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream

AD)

southeast across the site This stream is located on the eastern portion of the SA and is

classified as a Class C stream by the NYSDEC Stream‐AB originates offsite to the south and

flows south to north before draining into Stream‐AACobleskill Creek Stream‐AB is an

unnamed tributary to Cobleskill Creek and is a NYSDEC class C stream

Wetland‐AA originates from a storm water culvert and flows west to east eventually draining

into Stream AACobleskill Creek

Wetland‐AC is located in the central portion of the SA Wetland‐AC is located in the floodplain

of Stream‐AD Stream‐AD originates offsite to the South and crosses under State Route 7

Stream‐AD flows southeast to northwest and eventually connects to Cobleskill Creek Wetland‐

AD originates on the south side of Route 7 adjacent to Stream‐AD Wetland AD connects to

Stream‐AD and drains south to north

Wetland‐AE is located on the eastern portion of the SA and originates north of State Route 7

Wetland‐ AE crosses under State Route 7 via a culvert and continues to the south side of State

Route 7

Wetland‐AF originates in a ditch line containing wetland vegetation on the north side of State

Route 7 Wetland AF flows south to north and eventually connects to an unnamed tributary of

All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek (a 4th order stream) which flows into

Schoharie Creek approximately 3‐miles east of the SA Schoharie Creek drains into Mohawk

Creek approximately 16‐miles to the north Mohawk Creek drains into the Hudson River which

is the nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles to the

east of the SA As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with a

downstream TNW All Project Waters are likely considered jurisdictional under the Clean Water

Act and NYSDEC Freshwater Wetlands Act

34 VEGETATIVE COVER TYPES

41 USFWS NATIONAL WETLAND INVENTORY

US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) National Wetland Inventory (NWI) mapping shows one

federally mapped regulated wetland located within the SA The wetland is a riverine (R2UBH)

wetland associated with Cobleskill Creek Punch Kill and the unnamed tributaries Refer to

Section 50 and Figure 2 for additional information regarding the NWI mapped wetlands on the

SA

42 NYSDEC FRESHWATER WETLANDS AND PROTECTED STREAMS

The Freshwater Wetlands Act (Article 24 and Title 23 of Article 71 of the Environmental

Conservation Law) gives the NYSDEC jurisdiction over state‐protected wetlands and an adjacent

100‐foot buffer The Freshwater Wetlands Act (FWA) requires the NYSDEC to map all state‐

protected wetlands to allow landowners and other interested parties a means to determine

where state jurisdictional wetlands exist

The NYSDEC wetland maps indicated that there are no mapped state‐protected wetlands on

the SA The nearest state‐protected wetland is identified as Wetland S‐7 and is located

approximately 17 miles to the east of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

Under Article 15 of the Environmental Conservation Law (Protection of Waters) the NYSDEC

has jurisdiction over any activity that disturbs the bed or banks of protected streams A

protected stream is any stream or particular portion of a stream that has been assigned by the

NYSDEC any of the following classifications or standards AA AA(t) A A(t) A(ts) B B(t) B(ts)

C(t) or C(ts) (6 NYCRR Part 701) One NYSDEC stream is located within the SA Stream‐AC

(Punch Kill) Stream‐AC is classified as a Class C (t) stream indicating that it is a water suitable

for supporting a fishery and may contain a trout population Refer to Section 50 and Figure 2

for additional information regarding the streams identified on the SA

43 FEMA 100‐YEAR FLOOD ZONES

One FEMA floodzone was mapped on the SA This floodzone was associated with Cobleskill

Creek and was mapped along the eastern boundary of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

approximately 00009‐Acres in area Wetland‐AE is a PEM wetland and is approximately 012‐

Acres in area Wetland‐AF is a PEM wetland and is approximately 00045‐Acres in area All four

(4) of the streams delineated within the SA were perennial streams Streams‐AA AB AC and

AD Stream‐AA is approximately 73302‐feet in length and 8409‐feet in width Stream‐AB is

approximately 17533‐feet in length and 1148‐feet in width Stream‐AC is approximately

11862‐feet in length and 1162‐feet in width and Stream‐AD is approximately 13511‐feet in

length and 102‐feet in width

The Project Waters were identified based on the observed presence of hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and wetland hydrology indicators The streams were identified based on the

presence of Bed and Bank features and an Ordinary High Water Mark The primary functions

provided by the Project Waters appear to include water retention water quality improvement

wildlife habitat and nutrient production and cycling

All wetland and streams delineated onsite by LaBella are considered to be jurisdictional Waters

of the US (Waters) under the CWA All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek

which flows into Schoharie Creek Schoharie Creek eventually drains into the Hudson River the

nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles east of the SA

As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with the nearest

downstream TNW and so they are considered to be jurisdictional Waters under the CWA Any

Project‐related filling or disturbances within the delineated boundaries of the Project Waters

(as approved by the USACE) will require Federal CWA Section 404 authorization through the

USACE In addition such activities would also require a CWA Section 401 Water Quality

Certification from the NYSDEC These authorizations may be obtained through the Joint Permit

Application procedure if any such Project‐related activities are planned The final jurisdictional

status and boundaries of the Project Waters are subject to final determination by the USACE‐

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

10 INTRODUCTION

11 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Schoharie County (County) is planning to build a new County Public Safety Complex at 373

Howes Cave Road Schoharie New York and will need to update the utilities as a result The

County retained LaBella Associates DPC (LaBella) to perform a wetland and stream

delineation along the Right of Way ROW for the proposed Utility Corridor expansion (Site) For

the purposes of the wetland and stream delineation the Project Study Area (SA) was defined as

an approximate 28‐Acre corridor along Howes Cave Road and County Route 7 Please refer to

Figures 1 2 and 3A through 3E for the Site location and SA dimensions The geographic

coordinates of the approximate SA center were 42683101deg (Latitude) ‐74383403deg (Longitude)

(WGS84) This wetland delineation report includes the results of the wetland delineation of the

SA performed on October 25th 2017

12 PURPOSE

This report was prepared for the purpose of obtaining concurrence from the US Army Corps of

Engineers (USACE) ndash New York District on jurisdictional wetland boundaries within the SA in

support of the Project Specific tasks performed for this report included a field delineation of

potential state and federal jurisdictional waters within the SA a survey of jurisdictional water

boundaries and a detailed description of jurisdictional waters based on hydrology vegetation

and soils information collected in the field

This report describes the results of the delineation and documentation efforts performed by

LaBella and a description of the wetlands that were delineated This document is intended to

provide the information required to support a Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination with the

USACE

Wetland boundaries were defined in the field with sequentially‐numbered pink surveyorrsquos

flagging or pink pin flags printed with lsquowetland delineationrsquo Each flag was located using a

Trimble GeoXH sub‐foot GPS unit Data and observations were collected from five (5) wetland

sample plots (lsquoData Pointsrsquo) and five (5) upland Data Points within the SA These data points

were recorded on Regional Supplement Routine Wetland Data Forms (Appendix B) The data

points were adequate to characterize the cover types within the SA and were used to compare

wetland conditions to upland conditions in the SA

The wetland vegetative community data collection process focused on dominant plant species

in four (4) strata trees saplingsshrubs herbaceous species and woody vines Dominant

species for each stratum were chosen by visually estimating the percentage of aerial coverage

by species Species within each stratum were then ranked by percent cover within defined

plots This was performed independently in each stratum The sample plot was a 30‐foot

radius circle for the tree stratum a 15‐foot radius for the sapling shrub stratum a 5‐foot radius

for the herb stratum and a 15‐foot radius for the woody vine stratum Dominant species in

each stratum were then identified as those top‐ranking species that when cumulatively

totaled had cover percentages exceeding 50 percent of the total cover for that stratum and

any additional species comprising 20 percent or more of the total percent cover for that

stratum After the dominant species in each stratum were chosen the hydrophytic community

determination was made using the three determination methods listed in the Regional

Supplement Rapid Test for Hydrophytic Vegetation the Dominance Test and the Prevalence

Information concerning soil series drainage classification texture and matrix and mottle color

was obtained for the SA This information was used to determine which hydric soil indicators

would likely be encountered during field work Hydric soils are those that are saturated

flooded or ponded long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions

Hydric soils are poorly drained and their presence is indicative of the likely occurrence of

wetlands (Environmental Laboratory 1987) Hydric soils indicators were identified in the field

through observation of composition color and morphology in accordance with the Regional

Supplement and NRCS Hydric Soils Manual (USDA NRCS 2017) Soil colors were determined

using Munsell Soil Charts (Kollmorgen Corp 1988)

Wetland hydrology indicators (both primary and secondary) were identified in the field in

accordance with the Regional Supplement Representative photographs were taken of the

delineated wetlands within the SA and are included in Appendix C

33 HYDROLOGY

Waters of the United States (Waters) as defined by the USACE include all lakes ponds

streams (intermittent and perennial) and wetlands Wetlands are defined in Section 404 of the

Clean Water Act as ldquothose areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater at a

frequency and duration sufficient to support and under normal circumstances do support a

relevance of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions (EPA 2001)rdquo

Jurisdictional wetlands are defined by the presence of three criteria hydrophytic vegetation

41 USFWS NATIONAL WETLAND INVENTORY

US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) National Wetland Inventory (NWI) mapping shows one

federally mapped regulated wetland located within the SA The wetland is a riverine (R2UBH)

wetland associated with Cobleskill Creek Punch Kill and the unnamed tributaries Refer to

Section 50 and Figure 2 for additional information regarding the NWI mapped wetlands on the

SA

42 NYSDEC FRESHWATER WETLANDS AND PROTECTED STREAMS

The Freshwater Wetlands Act (Article 24 and Title 23 of Article 71 of the Environmental

Conservation Law) gives the NYSDEC jurisdiction over state‐protected wetlands and an adjacent

100‐foot buffer The Freshwater Wetlands Act (FWA) requires the NYSDEC to map all state‐

protected wetlands to allow landowners and other interested parties a means to determine

where state jurisdictional wetlands exist

The NYSDEC wetland maps indicated that there are no mapped state‐protected wetlands on

the SA The nearest state‐protected wetland is identified as Wetland S‐7 and is located

approximately 17 miles to the east of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

Under Article 15 of the Environmental Conservation Law (Protection of Waters) the NYSDEC

has jurisdiction over any activity that disturbs the bed or banks of protected streams A

protected stream is any stream or particular portion of a stream that has been assigned by the

NYSDEC any of the following classifications or standards AA AA(t) A A(t) A(ts) B B(t) B(ts)

C(t) or C(ts) (6 NYCRR Part 701) One NYSDEC stream is located within the SA Stream‐AC

(Punch Kill) Stream‐AC is classified as a Class C (t) stream indicating that it is a water suitable

for supporting a fishery and may contain a trout population Refer to Section 50 and Figure 2

for additional information regarding the streams identified on the SA

approximately 00009‐Acres in area Wetland‐AE is a PEM wetland and is approximately 012‐

Acres in area Wetland‐AF is a PEM wetland and is approximately 00045‐Acres in area All four

(4) of the streams delineated within the SA were perennial streams Streams‐AA AB AC and

AD Stream‐AA is approximately 73302‐feet in length and 8409‐feet in width Stream‐AB is

approximately 17533‐feet in length and 1148‐feet in width Stream‐AC is approximately

11862‐feet in length and 1162‐feet in width and Stream‐AD is approximately 13511‐feet in

length and 102‐feet in width

The Project Waters were identified based on the observed presence of hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and wetland hydrology indicators The streams were identified based on the

presence of Bed and Bank features and an Ordinary High Water Mark The primary functions

provided by the Project Waters appear to include water retention water quality improvement

wildlife habitat and nutrient production and cycling

All wetland and streams delineated onsite by LaBella are considered to be jurisdictional Waters

of the US (Waters) under the CWA All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek

which flows into Schoharie Creek Schoharie Creek eventually drains into the Hudson River the

nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles east of the SA

As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with the nearest

downstream TNW and so they are considered to be jurisdictional Waters under the CWA Any

Project‐related filling or disturbances within the delineated boundaries of the Project Waters

(as approved by the USACE) will require Federal CWA Section 404 authorization through the

USACE In addition such activities would also require a CWA Section 401 Water Quality

Certification from the NYSDEC These authorizations may be obtained through the Joint Permit

Application procedure if any such Project‐related activities are planned The final jurisdictional

status and boundaries of the Project Waters are subject to final determination by the USACE‐

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

10 INTRODUCTION

11 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Schoharie County (County) is planning to build a new County Public Safety Complex at 373

Howes Cave Road Schoharie New York and will need to update the utilities as a result The

County retained LaBella Associates DPC (LaBella) to perform a wetland and stream

delineation along the Right of Way ROW for the proposed Utility Corridor expansion (Site) For

the purposes of the wetland and stream delineation the Project Study Area (SA) was defined as

an approximate 28‐Acre corridor along Howes Cave Road and County Route 7 Please refer to

Figures 1 2 and 3A through 3E for the Site location and SA dimensions The geographic

coordinates of the approximate SA center were 42683101deg (Latitude) ‐74383403deg (Longitude)

(WGS84) This wetland delineation report includes the results of the wetland delineation of the

SA performed on October 25th 2017

12 PURPOSE

This report was prepared for the purpose of obtaining concurrence from the US Army Corps of

Engineers (USACE) ndash New York District on jurisdictional wetland boundaries within the SA in

support of the Project Specific tasks performed for this report included a field delineation of

potential state and federal jurisdictional waters within the SA a survey of jurisdictional water

boundaries and a detailed description of jurisdictional waters based on hydrology vegetation

and soils information collected in the field

This report describes the results of the delineation and documentation efforts performed by

LaBella and a description of the wetlands that were delineated This document is intended to

provide the information required to support a Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination with the

USACE

22 JURISDICTIONAL AREA DELINEATION

LaBella performed the wetland delineation within the SA on Octo

section 11 for a description of the SA The wetland delineation

with the methods presented in the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetl

ber 25th 2017 Refer to

was performed in accordance

and Delineation Manual (1987

Manual) as supplemented by the Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland

Delineation Manual Northcentral and Northeast Region Version 20 (Environmental Laboratory

2012) (Regional Supplement)

Wetland boundaries were defined in the field with sequentially‐numbered pink surveyorrsquos

flagging or pink pin flags printed with lsquowetland delineationrsquo Each flag was located using a

Trimble GeoXH sub‐foot GPS unit Data and observations were collected from five (5) wetland

sample plots (lsquoData Pointsrsquo) and five (5) upland Data Points within the SA These data points

were recorded on Regional Supplement Routine Wetland Data Forms (Appendix B) The data

points were adequate to characterize the cover types within the SA and were used to compare

wetland conditions to upland conditions in the SA

The wetland vegetative community data collection process focused on dominant plant species

in four (4) strata trees saplingsshrubs herbaceous species and woody vines Dominant

species for each stratum were chosen by visually estimating the percentage of aerial coverage

by species Species within each stratum were then ranked by percent cover within defined

plots This was performed independently in each stratum The sample plot was a 30‐foot

radius circle for the tree stratum a 15‐foot radius for the sapling shrub stratum a 5‐foot radius

for the herb stratum and a 15‐foot radius for the woody vine stratum Dominant species in

each stratum were then identified as those top‐ranking species that when cumulatively

totaled had cover percentages exceeding 50 percent of the total cover for that stratum and

any additional species comprising 20 percent or more of the total percent cover for that

stratum After the dominant species in each stratum were chosen the hydrophytic community

determination was made using the three determination methods listed in the Regional

Supplement Rapid Test for Hydrophytic Vegetation the Dominance Test and the Prevalence

Index

LaBella Project No 2150949

Information concerning soil series drainage classification texture and matrix and mottle color

was obtained for the SA This information was used to determine which hydric soil indicators

would likely be encountered during field work Hydric soils are those that are saturated

flooded or ponded long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions

Hydric soils are poorly drained and their presence is indicative of the likely occurrence of

wetlands (Environmental Laboratory 1987) Hydric soils indicators were identified in the field

through observation of composition color and morphology in accordance with the Regional

Supplement and NRCS Hydric Soils Manual (USDA NRCS 2017) Soil colors were determined

using Munsell Soil Charts (Kollmorgen Corp 1988)

Wetland hydrology indicators (both primary and secondary) were identified in the field in

accordance with the Regional Supplement Representative photographs were taken of the

delineated wetlands within the SA and are included in Appendix C

33 HYDROLOGY

Waters of the United States (Waters) as defined by the USACE include all lakes ponds

streams (intermittent and perennial) and wetlands Wetlands are defined in Section 404 of the

Clean Water Act as ldquothose areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater at a

frequency and duration sufficient to support and under normal circumstances do support a

relevance of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions (EPA 2001)rdquo

Jurisdictional wetlands are defined by the presence of three criteria hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and evidence of wetland hydrology during the growing season (Environmental

Laboratory 1987) All jurisdictional boundaries are subject to verification by the USACE The

jurisdictional status of all Waters will ultimately be determined by the USACE ndash New York

District

The SA is located in the Schoharie Watershed (USGS Hydrologic Unit 02020005) of the Upper

Hudson River basin At the time of the site visit the SA contained two (2) PSS wetlands

(Wetland‐AA and Wetland‐AC) three (3) PEM wetlands (Wetland‐AD Wetland‐AE and

Wetland AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream

AD)

Stream‐AACobleskill Creek originates offsite northwest of the SA and flows northwest to

southeast across the site This stream is located on the eastern portion of the SA and is

classified as a Class C stream by the NYSDEC Stream‐AB originates offsite to the south and

flows south to north before draining into Stream‐AACobleskill Creek Stream‐AB is an

unnamed tributary to Cobleskill Creek and is a NYSDEC class C stream

Wetland‐AA originates from a storm water culvert and flows west to east eventually draining

into Stream AACobleskill Creek

Wetland‐AC is located in the central portion of the SA Wetland‐AC is located in the floodplain

of Stream‐AD Stream‐AD originates offsite to the South and crosses under State Route 7

Stream‐AD flows southeast to northwest and eventually connects to Cobleskill Creek Wetland‐

AD originates on the south side of Route 7 adjacent to Stream‐AD Wetland AD connects to

Stream‐AD and drains south to north

Wetland‐AE is located on the eastern portion of the SA and originates north of State Route 7

Wetland‐ AE crosses under State Route 7 via a culvert and continues to the south side of State

Route 7

Wetland‐AF originates in a ditch line containing wetland vegetation on the north side of State

Route 7 Wetland AF flows south to north and eventually connects to an unnamed tributary of

Cobleskill Creek

Stream‐ACPunch Kill is located in the central portion of the SA Stream ACPunch Kill drains

south to north and eventually drains into Cobleskill Creek Stream ACPunch Kill is a NYSDEC

class C(t) stream

All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek (a 4th order stream) which flows into

Schoharie Creek approximately 3‐miles east of the SA Schoharie Creek drains into Mohawk

Creek approximately 16‐miles to the north Mohawk Creek drains into the Hudson River which

is the nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles to the

east of the SA As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with a

downstream TNW All Project Waters are likely considered jurisdictional under the Clean Water

Act and NYSDEC Freshwater Wetlands Act

34 VEGETATIVE COVER TYPES

The vegetative cover of the SA was characterized as a mosaic of roadside maintained ROW

upland lawns riparian forest two (2) PSS wetlands three (3) PEM wetlands and four (4)

perennial streams

The upland lawn and roadside ROW plant communities within the SA were observed to be

dominated by one or more of the following species dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) grasess

black locust trees (Robinia pseudoacacia) wild carrot (Daucus carota) spotted knapweed

(Centaurea steobe) blackberry (Rubus spp) Fullerrsquos teasle (Dipsacus fullonum) and multiflora

rose (Rosa multiflora)

The plant community noted to be dominant in the upland riparian forest community included

red maple (Acer rubrum) sugar maple (Acer saccharum) goldenrod (Solidago spp) Sycamore

(Platanus occidentalis) grape (Vitis spp) honeysuckle (Lonicera spp) black locust Basswood

(Tilia americana) green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica) box elder (Acer negundo) and mile‐a‐

minute vine (Persicaria perfoliata)

The plant community of the PSS wetlands were noted to be dominated by the following

species reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea) redosier dogwood (Cornus sericea)

willowherb (Epilobium ciliatum) box elder late goldenrod (Solidago gigantea) purple

loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria) pussy willow (Salix discolor) and black willow (Salix nigra)

41 USFWS NATIONAL WETLAND INVENTORY

US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) National Wetland Inventory (NWI) mapping shows one

federally mapped regulated wetland located within the SA The wetland is a riverine (R2UBH)

wetland associated with Cobleskill Creek Punch Kill and the unnamed tributaries Refer to

Section 50 and Figure 2 for additional information regarding the NWI mapped wetlands on the

SA

42 NYSDEC FRESHWATER WETLANDS AND PROTECTED STREAMS

The Freshwater Wetlands Act (Article 24 and Title 23 of Article 71 of the Environmental

Conservation Law) gives the NYSDEC jurisdiction over state‐protected wetlands and an adjacent

100‐foot buffer The Freshwater Wetlands Act (FWA) requires the NYSDEC to map all state‐

protected wetlands to allow landowners and other interested parties a means to determine

where state jurisdictional wetlands exist

The NYSDEC wetland maps indicated that there are no mapped state‐protected wetlands on

the SA The nearest state‐protected wetland is identified as Wetland S‐7 and is located

approximately 17 miles to the east of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

Under Article 15 of the Environmental Conservation Law (Protection of Waters) the NYSDEC

has jurisdiction over any activity that disturbs the bed or banks of protected streams A

protected stream is any stream or particular portion of a stream that has been assigned by the

NYSDEC any of the following classifications or standards AA AA(t) A A(t) A(ts) B B(t) B(ts)

C(t) or C(ts) (6 NYCRR Part 701) One NYSDEC stream is located within the SA Stream‐AC

(Punch Kill) Stream‐AC is classified as a Class C (t) stream indicating that it is a water suitable

for supporting a fishery and may contain a trout population Refer to Section 50 and Figure 2

for additional information regarding the streams identified on the SA

43 FEMA 100‐YEAR FLOOD ZONES

One FEMA floodzone was mapped on the SA This floodzone was associated with Cobleskill

Creek and was mapped along the eastern boundary of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

LaBella delineated two (2) PSS wetlands (Wetland‐AA and Wetland AC) three (3) PEM wetlands

(Wetland‐AD WetlandndashAE and Wetland‐AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA

Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream AD) within the SA

Wetland‐AA is a PSS wetland and is approximately 125‐Acres in area Wetland‐AC is a PSS

wetland and is approximately 0001‐Acres in area Wetland‐AD is a PEM wetland and is

approximately 00009‐Acres in area Wetland‐AE is a PEM wetland and is approximately 012‐

Acres in area Wetland‐AF is a PEM wetland and is approximately 00045‐Acres in area All four

(4) of the streams delineated within the SA were perennial streams Streams‐AA AB AC and

AD Stream‐AA is approximately 73302‐feet in length and 8409‐feet in width Stream‐AB is

approximately 17533‐feet in length and 1148‐feet in width Stream‐AC is approximately

11862‐feet in length and 1162‐feet in width and Stream‐AD is approximately 13511‐feet in

length and 102‐feet in width

The Project Waters were identified based on the observed presence of hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and wetland hydrology indicators The streams were identified based on the

presence of Bed and Bank features and an Ordinary High Water Mark The primary functions

provided by the Project Waters appear to include water retention water quality improvement

wildlife habitat and nutrient production and cycling

All wetland and streams delineated onsite by LaBella are considered to be jurisdictional Waters

of the US (Waters) under the CWA All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek

which flows into Schoharie Creek Schoharie Creek eventually drains into the Hudson River the

nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles east of the SA

As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with the nearest

downstream TNW and so they are considered to be jurisdictional Waters under the CWA Any

Project‐related filling or disturbances within the delineated boundaries of the Project Waters

(as approved by the USACE) will require Federal CWA Section 404 authorization through the

USACE In addition such activities would also require a CWA Section 401 Water Quality

Certification from the NYSDEC These authorizations may be obtained through the Joint Permit

Application procedure if any such Project‐related activities are planned The final jurisdictional

status and boundaries of the Project Waters are subject to final determination by the USACE‐

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

10 INTRODUCTION

11 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Schoharie County (County) is planning to build a new County Public Safety Complex at 373

Howes Cave Road Schoharie New York and will need to update the utilities as a result The

County retained LaBella Associates DPC (LaBella) to perform a wetland and stream

delineation along the Right of Way ROW for the proposed Utility Corridor expansion (Site) For

the purposes of the wetland and stream delineation the Project Study Area (SA) was defined as

an approximate 28‐Acre corridor along Howes Cave Road and County Route 7 Please refer to

Figures 1 2 and 3A through 3E for the Site location and SA dimensions The geographic

coordinates of the approximate SA center were 42683101deg (Latitude) ‐74383403deg (Longitude)

(WGS84) This wetland delineation report includes the results of the wetland delineation of the

SA performed on October 25th 2017

12 PURPOSE

This report was prepared for the purpose of obtaining concurrence from the US Army Corps of

Engineers (USACE) ndash New York District on jurisdictional wetland boundaries within the SA in

support of the Project Specific tasks performed for this report included a field delineation of

potential state and federal jurisdictional waters within the SA a survey of jurisdictional water

boundaries and a detailed description of jurisdictional waters based on hydrology vegetation

and soils information collected in the field

This report describes the results of the delineation and documentation efforts performed by

LaBella and a description of the wetlands that were delineated This document is intended to

provide the information required to support a Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination with the

USACE

22 JURISDICTIONAL AREA DELINEATION

LaBella performed the wetland delineation within the SA on Octo

section 11 for a description of the SA The wetland delineation

with the methods presented in the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetl

ber 25th 2017 Refer to

was performed in accordance

and Delineation Manual (1987

Manual) as supplemented by the Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland

Delineation Manual Northcentral and Northeast Region Version 20 (Environmental Laboratory

2012) (Regional Supplement)

Wetland boundaries were defined in the field with sequentially‐numbered pink surveyorrsquos

flagging or pink pin flags printed with lsquowetland delineationrsquo Each flag was located using a

Trimble GeoXH sub‐foot GPS unit Data and observations were collected from five (5) wetland

sample plots (lsquoData Pointsrsquo) and five (5) upland Data Points within the SA These data points

were recorded on Regional Supplement Routine Wetland Data Forms (Appendix B) The data

points were adequate to characterize the cover types within the SA and were used to compare

wetland conditions to upland conditions in the SA

The wetland vegetative community data collection process focused on dominant plant species

in four (4) strata trees saplingsshrubs herbaceous species and woody vines Dominant

species for each stratum were chosen by visually estimating the percentage of aerial coverage

by species Species within each stratum were then ranked by percent cover within defined

plots This was performed independently in each stratum The sample plot was a 30‐foot

radius circle for the tree stratum a 15‐foot radius for the sapling shrub stratum a 5‐foot radius

for the herb stratum and a 15‐foot radius for the woody vine stratum Dominant species in

each stratum were then identified as those top‐ranking species that when cumulatively

totaled had cover percentages exceeding 50 percent of the total cover for that stratum and

any additional species comprising 20 percent or more of the total percent cover for that

stratum After the dominant species in each stratum were chosen the hydrophytic community

determination was made using the three determination methods listed in the Regional

Supplement Rapid Test for Hydrophytic Vegetation the Dominance Test and the Prevalence

Information concerning soil series drainage classification texture and matrix and mottle color

was obtained for the SA This information was used to determine which hydric soil indicators

would likely be encountered during field work Hydric soils are those that are saturated

flooded or ponded long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions

Hydric soils are poorly drained and their presence is indicative of the likely occurrence of

wetlands (Environmental Laboratory 1987) Hydric soils indicators were identified in the field

through observation of composition color and morphology in accordance with the Regional

Supplement and NRCS Hydric Soils Manual (USDA NRCS 2017) Soil colors were determined

using Munsell Soil Charts (Kollmorgen Corp 1988)

Wetland hydrology indicators (both primary and secondary) were identified in the field in

accordance with the Regional Supplement Representative photographs were taken of the

delineated wetlands within the SA and are included in Appendix C

33 HYDROLOGY

Waters of the United States (Waters) as defined by the USACE include all lakes ponds

streams (intermittent and perennial) and wetlands Wetlands are defined in Section 404 of the

Clean Water Act as ldquothose areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater at a

frequency and duration sufficient to support and under normal circumstances do support a

relevance of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions (EPA 2001)rdquo

Jurisdictional wetlands are defined by the presence of three criteria hydrophytic vegetation

Laboratory 1987) All jurisdictional boundaries are subject to verification by the USACE The

jurisdictional status of all Waters will ultimately be determined by the USACE ndash New York

District

The SA is located in the Schoharie Watershed (USGS Hydrologic Unit 02020005) of the Upper

Hudson River basin At the time of the site visit the SA contained two (2) PSS wetlands

(Wetland‐AA and Wetland‐AC) three (3) PEM wetlands (Wetland‐AD Wetland‐AE and

Wetland AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream

AD)

Stream‐AACobleskill Creek originates offsite northwest of the SA and flows northwest to

southeast across the site This stream is located on the eastern portion of the SA and is

classified as a Class C stream by the NYSDEC Stream‐AB originates offsite to the south and

flows south to north before draining into Stream‐AACobleskill Creek Stream‐AB is an

unnamed tributary to Cobleskill Creek and is a NYSDEC class C stream

Wetland‐AA originates from a storm water culvert and flows west to east eventually draining

into Stream AACobleskill Creek

Wetland‐AC is located in the central portion of the SA Wetland‐AC is located in the floodplain

of Stream‐AD Stream‐AD originates offsite to the South and crosses under State Route 7

Stream‐AD flows southeast to northwest and eventually connects to Cobleskill Creek Wetland‐

AD originates on the south side of Route 7 adjacent to Stream‐AD Wetland AD connects to

Stream‐AD and drains south to north

Wetland‐AE is located on the eastern portion of the SA and originates north of State Route 7

Wetland‐ AE crosses under State Route 7 via a culvert and continues to the south side of State

Route 7

Wetland‐AF originates in a ditch line containing wetland vegetation on the north side of State

Route 7 Wetland AF flows south to north and eventually connects to an unnamed tributary of

Cobleskill Creek

Stream‐ACPunch Kill is located in the central portion of the SA Stream ACPunch Kill drains

south to north and eventually drains into Cobleskill Creek Stream ACPunch Kill is a NYSDEC

class C(t) stream

All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek (a 4th order stream) which flows into

Schoharie Creek approximately 3‐miles east of the SA Schoharie Creek drains into Mohawk

Creek approximately 16‐miles to the north Mohawk Creek drains into the Hudson River which

is the nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles to the

east of the SA As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with a

downstream TNW All Project Waters are likely considered jurisdictional under the Clean Water

Act and NYSDEC Freshwater Wetlands Act

Conservation Law) gives the NYSDEC jurisdiction over state‐protected wetlands and an adjacent

100‐foot buffer The Freshwater Wetlands Act (FWA) requires the NYSDEC to map all state‐

protected wetlands to allow landowners and other interested parties a means to determine

where state jurisdictional wetlands exist

The NYSDEC wetland maps indicated that there are no mapped state‐protected wetlands on

the SA The nearest state‐protected wetland is identified as Wetland S‐7 and is located

approximately 17 miles to the east of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

Under Article 15 of the Environmental Conservation Law (Protection of Waters) the NYSDEC

has jurisdiction over any activity that disturbs the bed or banks of protected streams A

protected stream is any stream or particular portion of a stream that has been assigned by the

NYSDEC any of the following classifications or standards AA AA(t) A A(t) A(ts) B B(t) B(ts)

C(t) or C(ts) (6 NYCRR Part 701) One NYSDEC stream is located within the SA Stream‐AC

(Punch Kill) Stream‐AC is classified as a Class C (t) stream indicating that it is a water suitable

for supporting a fishery and may contain a trout population Refer to Section 50 and Figure 2

for additional information regarding the streams identified on the SA

43 FEMA 100‐YEAR FLOOD ZONES

One FEMA floodzone was mapped on the SA This floodzone was associated with Cobleskill

Creek and was mapped along the eastern boundary of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

50 RESULTS

LaBella delineated five (5) wetlands and four (4) streams within the SA Please refer to Tables 2

and 3 below for acreages of each wetland and length and width of each stream delineated The

remainder of the SA was considered to be open field upland lawn and ROW habitat and

upland riparian forest These habitats lacked wetland hydrology indicators and hydric soils

The upland plant communities were dominated by dandelion grasses black locust trees wild

carrot spotted knapweed blackberry Fullerrsquos teasle multiflora rose red maple sugar maple

60 Conclusions

LaBella delineated two (2) PSS wetlands (Wetland‐AA and Wetland AC) three (3) PEM wetlands

(Wetland‐AD WetlandndashAE and Wetland‐AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA

Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream AD) within the SA

Wetland‐AA is a PSS wetland and is approximately 125‐Acres in area Wetland‐AC is a PSS

wetland and is approximately 0001‐Acres in area Wetland‐AD is a PEM wetland and is

approximately 00009‐Acres in area Wetland‐AE is a PEM wetland and is approximately 012‐

Acres in area Wetland‐AF is a PEM wetland and is approximately 00045‐Acres in area All four

(4) of the streams delineated within the SA were perennial streams Streams‐AA AB AC and

AD Stream‐AA is approximately 73302‐feet in length and 8409‐feet in width Stream‐AB is

approximately 17533‐feet in length and 1148‐feet in width Stream‐AC is approximately

11862‐feet in length and 1162‐feet in width and Stream‐AD is approximately 13511‐feet in

length and 102‐feet in width

The Project Waters were identified based on the observed presence of hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and wetland hydrology indicators The streams were identified based on the

presence of Bed and Bank features and an Ordinary High Water Mark The primary functions

provided by the Project Waters appear to include water retention water quality improvement

wildlife habitat and nutrient production and cycling

All wetland and streams delineated onsite by LaBella are considered to be jurisdictional Waters

of the US (Waters) under the CWA All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek

which flows into Schoharie Creek Schoharie Creek eventually drains into the Hudson River the

nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles east of the SA

As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with the nearest

downstream TNW and so they are considered to be jurisdictional Waters under the CWA Any

Project‐related filling or disturbances within the delineated boundaries of the Project Waters

(as approved by the USACE) will require Federal CWA Section 404 authorization through the

USACE In addition such activities would also require a CWA Section 401 Water Quality

Certification from the NYSDEC These authorizations may be obtained through the Joint Permit

Application procedure if any such Project‐related activities are planned The final jurisdictional

status and boundaries of the Project Waters are subject to final determination by the USACE‐

New York District

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

22 JURISDICTIONAL AREA DELINEATION

LaBella performed the wetland delineation within the SA on Octo

section 11 for a description of the SA The wetland delineation

with the methods presented in the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetl

ber 25th 2017 Refer to

was performed in accordance

and Delineation Manual (1987

Manual) as supplemented by the Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland

Delineation Manual Northcentral and Northeast Region Version 20 (Environmental Laboratory

2012) (Regional Supplement)

Wetland boundaries were defined in the field with sequentially‐numbered pink surveyorrsquos

flagging or pink pin flags printed with lsquowetland delineationrsquo Each flag was located using a

Trimble GeoXH sub‐foot GPS unit Data and observations were collected from five (5) wetland

sample plots (lsquoData Pointsrsquo) and five (5) upland Data Points within the SA These data points

were recorded on Regional Supplement Routine Wetland Data Forms (Appendix B) The data

points were adequate to characterize the cover types within the SA and were used to compare

wetland conditions to upland conditions in the SA

The wetland vegetative community data collection process focused on dominant plant species

in four (4) strata trees saplingsshrubs herbaceous species and woody vines Dominant

species for each stratum were chosen by visually estimating the percentage of aerial coverage

by species Species within each stratum were then ranked by percent cover within defined

plots This was performed independently in each stratum The sample plot was a 30‐foot

radius circle for the tree stratum a 15‐foot radius for the sapling shrub stratum a 5‐foot radius

for the herb stratum and a 15‐foot radius for the woody vine stratum Dominant species in

each stratum were then identified as those top‐ranking species that when cumulatively

totaled had cover percentages exceeding 50 percent of the total cover for that stratum and

any additional species comprising 20 percent or more of the total percent cover for that

stratum After the dominant species in each stratum were chosen the hydrophytic community

determination was made using the three determination methods listed in the Regional

Supplement Rapid Test for Hydrophytic Vegetation the Dominance Test and the Prevalence

Information concerning soil series drainage classification texture and matrix and mottle color

was obtained for the SA This information was used to determine which hydric soil indicators

would likely be encountered during field work Hydric soils are those that are saturated

flooded or ponded long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions

Hydric soils are poorly drained and their presence is indicative of the likely occurrence of

wetlands (Environmental Laboratory 1987) Hydric soils indicators were identified in the field

through observation of composition color and morphology in accordance with the Regional

Supplement and NRCS Hydric Soils Manual (USDA NRCS 2017) Soil colors were determined

using Munsell Soil Charts (Kollmorgen Corp 1988)

Wetland hydrology indicators (both primary and secondary) were identified in the field in

accordance with the Regional Supplement Representative photographs were taken of the

delineated wetlands within the SA and are included in Appendix C

33 HYDROLOGY

Waters of the United States (Waters) as defined by the USACE include all lakes ponds

streams (intermittent and perennial) and wetlands Wetlands are defined in Section 404 of the

Clean Water Act as ldquothose areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater at a

frequency and duration sufficient to support and under normal circumstances do support a

relevance of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions (EPA 2001)rdquo

Jurisdictional wetlands are defined by the presence of three criteria hydrophytic vegetation

Laboratory 1987) All jurisdictional boundaries are subject to verification by the USACE The

jurisdictional status of all Waters will ultimately be determined by the USACE ndash New York

District

The SA is located in the Schoharie Watershed (USGS Hydrologic Unit 02020005) of the Upper

Hudson River basin At the time of the site visit the SA contained two (2) PSS wetlands

(Wetland‐AA and Wetland‐AC) three (3) PEM wetlands (Wetland‐AD Wetland‐AE and

Wetland AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream

AD)

Stream‐AACobleskill Creek originates offsite northwest of the SA and flows northwest to

southeast across the site This stream is located on the eastern portion of the SA and is

classified as a Class C stream by the NYSDEC Stream‐AB originates offsite to the south and

flows south to north before draining into Stream‐AACobleskill Creek Stream‐AB is an

unnamed tributary to Cobleskill Creek and is a NYSDEC class C stream

Wetland‐AA originates from a storm water culvert and flows west to east eventually draining

into Stream AACobleskill Creek

Wetland‐AC is located in the central portion of the SA Wetland‐AC is located in the floodplain

of Stream‐AD Stream‐AD originates offsite to the South and crosses under State Route 7

Stream‐AD flows southeast to northwest and eventually connects to Cobleskill Creek Wetland‐

AD originates on the south side of Route 7 adjacent to Stream‐AD Wetland AD connects to

Stream‐AD and drains south to north

Wetland‐AE is located on the eastern portion of the SA and originates north of State Route 7

Wetland‐ AE crosses under State Route 7 via a culvert and continues to the south side of State

All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek (a 4th order stream) which flows into

Schoharie Creek approximately 3‐miles east of the SA Schoharie Creek drains into Mohawk

Creek approximately 16‐miles to the north Mohawk Creek drains into the Hudson River which

is the nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles to the

east of the SA As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with a

downstream TNW All Project Waters are likely considered jurisdictional under the Clean Water

Act and NYSDEC Freshwater Wetlands Act

34 VEGETATIVE COVER TYPES

41 USFWS NATIONAL WETLAND INVENTORY

US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) National Wetland Inventory (NWI) mapping shows one

federally mapped regulated wetland located within the SA The wetland is a riverine (R2UBH)

wetland associated with Cobleskill Creek Punch Kill and the unnamed tributaries Refer to

Section 50 and Figure 2 for additional information regarding the NWI mapped wetlands on the

SA

42 NYSDEC FRESHWATER WETLANDS AND PROTECTED STREAMS

The Freshwater Wetlands Act (Article 24 and Title 23 of Article 71 of the Environmental

Conservation Law) gives the NYSDEC jurisdiction over state‐protected wetlands and an adjacent

100‐foot buffer The Freshwater Wetlands Act (FWA) requires the NYSDEC to map all state‐

protected wetlands to allow landowners and other interested parties a means to determine

where state jurisdictional wetlands exist

The NYSDEC wetland maps indicated that there are no mapped state‐protected wetlands on

the SA The nearest state‐protected wetland is identified as Wetland S‐7 and is located

approximately 17 miles to the east of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

Under Article 15 of the Environmental Conservation Law (Protection of Waters) the NYSDEC

has jurisdiction over any activity that disturbs the bed or banks of protected streams A

protected stream is any stream or particular portion of a stream that has been assigned by the

NYSDEC any of the following classifications or standards AA AA(t) A A(t) A(ts) B B(t) B(ts)

C(t) or C(ts) (6 NYCRR Part 701) One NYSDEC stream is located within the SA Stream‐AC

(Punch Kill) Stream‐AC is classified as a Class C (t) stream indicating that it is a water suitable

for supporting a fishery and may contain a trout population Refer to Section 50 and Figure 2

for additional information regarding the streams identified on the SA

Stream‐AC is NYSDEC Class C(t) perennial stream (Punch Kill) and originates south of the SA

Stream‐AC is located in the central portion of the SA This stream generally flows from south to

north Stream‐AC flows offsite and eventually connects to Cobleskill Creek north of the SA

Stream‐AC is approximately 11862 feet in length and 1162 feet in width with a gravel and silt

bed substrate

Stream‐AD is a NYSDEC Class C perennial stream located on the western portion of the SA

Stream‐AD generally flows from south to north and is approximately 13511‐feet in length and

102‐feet in width with a gravel and silt bed substrate

60 Conclusions

LaBella delineated two (2) PSS wetlands (Wetland‐AA and Wetland AC) three (3) PEM wetlands

(Wetland‐AD WetlandndashAE and Wetland‐AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA

Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream AD) within the SA

Wetland‐AA is a PSS wetland and is approximately 125‐Acres in area Wetland‐AC is a PSS

wetland and is approximately 0001‐Acres in area Wetland‐AD is a PEM wetland and is

approximately 00009‐Acres in area Wetland‐AE is a PEM wetland and is approximately 012‐

Acres in area Wetland‐AF is a PEM wetland and is approximately 00045‐Acres in area All four

(4) of the streams delineated within the SA were perennial streams Streams‐AA AB AC and

AD Stream‐AA is approximately 73302‐feet in length and 8409‐feet in width Stream‐AB is

approximately 17533‐feet in length and 1148‐feet in width Stream‐AC is approximately

11862‐feet in length and 1162‐feet in width and Stream‐AD is approximately 13511‐feet in

length and 102‐feet in width

The Project Waters were identified based on the observed presence of hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and wetland hydrology indicators The streams were identified based on the

presence of Bed and Bank features and an Ordinary High Water Mark The primary functions

provided by the Project Waters appear to include water retention water quality improvement

wildlife habitat and nutrient production and cycling

All wetland and streams delineated onsite by LaBella are considered to be jurisdictional Waters

of the US (Waters) under the CWA All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek

which flows into Schoharie Creek Schoharie Creek eventually drains into the Hudson River the

nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles east of the SA

As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with the nearest

downstream TNW and so they are considered to be jurisdictional Waters under the CWA Any

Project‐related filling or disturbances within the delineated boundaries of the Project Waters

(as approved by the USACE) will require Federal CWA Section 404 authorization through the

USACE In addition such activities would also require a CWA Section 401 Water Quality

Certification from the NYSDEC These authorizations may be obtained through the Joint Permit

Application procedure if any such Project‐related activities are planned The final jurisdictional

status and boundaries of the Project Waters are subject to final determination by the USACE‐

New York District

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

LaBella Project No 2150949

Information concerning soil series drainage classification texture and matrix and mottle color

was obtained for the SA This information was used to determine which hydric soil indicators

would likely be encountered during field work Hydric soils are those that are saturated

flooded or ponded long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions

Hydric soils are poorly drained and their presence is indicative of the likely occurrence of

wetlands (Environmental Laboratory 1987) Hydric soils indicators were identified in the field

through observation of composition color and morphology in accordance with the Regional

Supplement and NRCS Hydric Soils Manual (USDA NRCS 2017) Soil colors were determined

using Munsell Soil Charts (Kollmorgen Corp 1988)

Wetland hydrology indicators (both primary and secondary) were identified in the field in

accordance with the Regional Supplement Representative photographs were taken of the

delineated wetlands within the SA and are included in Appendix C

33 HYDROLOGY

Waters of the United States (Waters) as defined by the USACE include all lakes ponds

streams (intermittent and perennial) and wetlands Wetlands are defined in Section 404 of the

Clean Water Act as ldquothose areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater at a

frequency and duration sufficient to support and under normal circumstances do support a

relevance of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions (EPA 2001)rdquo

Jurisdictional wetlands are defined by the presence of three criteria hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and evidence of wetland hydrology during the growing season (Environmental

Laboratory 1987) All jurisdictional boundaries are subject to verification by the USACE The

jurisdictional status of all Waters will ultimately be determined by the USACE ndash New York

District

The SA is located in the Schoharie Watershed (USGS Hydrologic Unit 02020005) of the Upper

Hudson River basin At the time of the site visit the SA contained two (2) PSS wetlands

(Wetland‐AA and Wetland‐AC) three (3) PEM wetlands (Wetland‐AD Wetland‐AE and

Wetland AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream

AD)

Stream‐AACobleskill Creek originates offsite northwest of the SA and flows northwest to

southeast across the site This stream is located on the eastern portion of the SA and is

classified as a Class C stream by the NYSDEC Stream‐AB originates offsite to the south and

flows south to north before draining into Stream‐AACobleskill Creek Stream‐AB is an

unnamed tributary to Cobleskill Creek and is a NYSDEC class C stream

Wetland‐AA originates from a storm water culvert and flows west to east eventually draining

into Stream AACobleskill Creek

Wetland‐AC is located in the central portion of the SA Wetland‐AC is located in the floodplain

of Stream‐AD Stream‐AD originates offsite to the South and crosses under State Route 7

Stream‐AD flows southeast to northwest and eventually connects to Cobleskill Creek Wetland‐

AD originates on the south side of Route 7 adjacent to Stream‐AD Wetland AD connects to

Stream‐AD and drains south to north

Wetland‐AE is located on the eastern portion of the SA and originates north of State Route 7

Wetland‐ AE crosses under State Route 7 via a culvert and continues to the south side of State

Route 7

Wetland‐AF originates in a ditch line containing wetland vegetation on the north side of State

Route 7 Wetland AF flows south to north and eventually connects to an unnamed tributary of

Cobleskill Creek

Stream‐ACPunch Kill is located in the central portion of the SA Stream ACPunch Kill drains

All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek (a 4th order stream) which flows into

Schoharie Creek approximately 3‐miles east of the SA Schoharie Creek drains into Mohawk

Creek approximately 16‐miles to the north Mohawk Creek drains into the Hudson River which

is the nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles to the

east of the SA As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with a

downstream TNW All Project Waters are likely considered jurisdictional under the Clean Water

Act and NYSDEC Freshwater Wetlands Act

34 VEGETATIVE COVER TYPES

41 USFWS NATIONAL WETLAND INVENTORY

US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) National Wetland Inventory (NWI) mapping shows one

federally mapped regulated wetland located within the SA The wetland is a riverine (R2UBH)

wetland associated with Cobleskill Creek Punch Kill and the unnamed tributaries Refer to

Section 50 and Figure 2 for additional information regarding the NWI mapped wetlands on the

SA

42 NYSDEC FRESHWATER WETLANDS AND PROTECTED STREAMS

The Freshwater Wetlands Act (Article 24 and Title 23 of Article 71 of the Environmental

Conservation Law) gives the NYSDEC jurisdiction over state‐protected wetlands and an adjacent

100‐foot buffer The Freshwater Wetlands Act (FWA) requires the NYSDEC to map all state‐

protected wetlands to allow landowners and other interested parties a means to determine

where state jurisdictional wetlands exist

The NYSDEC wetland maps indicated that there are no mapped state‐protected wetlands on

the SA The nearest state‐protected wetland is identified as Wetland S‐7 and is located

approximately 17 miles to the east of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

Under Article 15 of the Environmental Conservation Law (Protection of Waters) the NYSDEC

has jurisdiction over any activity that disturbs the bed or banks of protected streams A

protected stream is any stream or particular portion of a stream that has been assigned by the

NYSDEC any of the following classifications or standards AA AA(t) A A(t) A(ts) B B(t) B(ts)

C(t) or C(ts) (6 NYCRR Part 701) One NYSDEC stream is located within the SA Stream‐AC

(Punch Kill) Stream‐AC is classified as a Class C (t) stream indicating that it is a water suitable

for supporting a fishery and may contain a trout population Refer to Section 50 and Figure 2

for additional information regarding the streams identified on the SA

43 FEMA 100‐YEAR FLOOD ZONES

One FEMA floodzone was mapped on the SA This floodzone was associated with Cobleskill

Creek and was mapped along the eastern boundary of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

approximately 00009‐Acres in area Wetland‐AE is a PEM wetland and is approximately 012‐

Acres in area Wetland‐AF is a PEM wetland and is approximately 00045‐Acres in area All four

(4) of the streams delineated within the SA were perennial streams Streams‐AA AB AC and

AD Stream‐AA is approximately 73302‐feet in length and 8409‐feet in width Stream‐AB is

approximately 17533‐feet in length and 1148‐feet in width Stream‐AC is approximately

11862‐feet in length and 1162‐feet in width and Stream‐AD is approximately 13511‐feet in

length and 102‐feet in width

The Project Waters were identified based on the observed presence of hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and wetland hydrology indicators The streams were identified based on the

presence of Bed and Bank features and an Ordinary High Water Mark The primary functions

provided by the Project Waters appear to include water retention water quality improvement

wildlife habitat and nutrient production and cycling

All wetland and streams delineated onsite by LaBella are considered to be jurisdictional Waters

of the US (Waters) under the CWA All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek

which flows into Schoharie Creek Schoharie Creek eventually drains into the Hudson River the

nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles east of the SA

As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with the nearest

downstream TNW and so they are considered to be jurisdictional Waters under the CWA Any

Project‐related filling or disturbances within the delineated boundaries of the Project Waters

(as approved by the USACE) will require Federal CWA Section 404 authorization through the

USACE In addition such activities would also require a CWA Section 401 Water Quality

Certification from the NYSDEC These authorizations may be obtained through the Joint Permit

Application procedure if any such Project‐related activities are planned The final jurisdictional

status and boundaries of the Project Waters are subject to final determination by the USACE‐

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

33 HYDROLOGY

Waters of the United States (Waters) as defined by the USACE include all lakes ponds

streams (intermittent and perennial) and wetlands Wetlands are defined in Section 404 of the

Clean Water Act as ldquothose areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater at a

frequency and duration sufficient to support and under normal circumstances do support a

relevance of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions (EPA 2001)rdquo

Jurisdictional wetlands are defined by the presence of three criteria hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and evidence of wetland hydrology during the growing season (Environmental

Laboratory 1987) All jurisdictional boundaries are subject to verification by the USACE The

jurisdictional status of all Waters will ultimately be determined by the USACE ndash New York

District

The SA is located in the Schoharie Watershed (USGS Hydrologic Unit 02020005) of the Upper

Hudson River basin At the time of the site visit the SA contained two (2) PSS wetlands

(Wetland‐AA and Wetland‐AC) three (3) PEM wetlands (Wetland‐AD Wetland‐AE and

Wetland AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream

AD)

Stream‐AACobleskill Creek originates offsite northwest of the SA and flows northwest to

southeast across the site This stream is located on the eastern portion of the SA and is

classified as a Class C stream by the NYSDEC Stream‐AB originates offsite to the south and

flows south to north before draining into Stream‐AACobleskill Creek Stream‐AB is an

unnamed tributary to Cobleskill Creek and is a NYSDEC class C stream

Wetland‐AA originates from a storm water culvert and flows west to east eventually draining

into Stream AACobleskill Creek

Wetland‐AC is located in the central portion of the SA Wetland‐AC is located in the floodplain

of Stream‐AD Stream‐AD originates offsite to the South and crosses under State Route 7

Stream‐AD flows southeast to northwest and eventually connects to Cobleskill Creek Wetland‐

AD originates on the south side of Route 7 adjacent to Stream‐AD Wetland AD connects to

Stream‐AD and drains south to north

Wetland‐AE is located on the eastern portion of the SA and originates north of State Route 7

Wetland‐ AE crosses under State Route 7 via a culvert and continues to the south side of State

Route 7

Wetland‐AF originates in a ditch line containing wetland vegetation on the north side of State

Route 7 Wetland AF flows south to north and eventually connects to an unnamed tributary of

Cobleskill Creek

Stream‐ACPunch Kill is located in the central portion of the SA Stream ACPunch Kill drains

south to north and eventually drains into Cobleskill Creek Stream ACPunch Kill is a NYSDEC

class C(t) stream

All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek (a 4th order stream) which flows into

Schoharie Creek approximately 3‐miles east of the SA Schoharie Creek drains into Mohawk

Creek approximately 16‐miles to the north Mohawk Creek drains into the Hudson River which

is the nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles to the

east of the SA As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with a

downstream TNW All Project Waters are likely considered jurisdictional under the Clean Water

Act and NYSDEC Freshwater Wetlands Act

34 VEGETATIVE COVER TYPES

The vegetative cover of the SA was characterized as a mosaic of roadside maintained ROW

upland lawns riparian forest two (2) PSS wetlands three (3) PEM wetlands and four (4)

perennial streams

The upland lawn and roadside ROW plant communities within the SA were observed to be

dominated by one or more of the following species dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) grasess

black locust trees (Robinia pseudoacacia) wild carrot (Daucus carota) spotted knapweed

(Centaurea steobe) blackberry (Rubus spp) Fullerrsquos teasle (Dipsacus fullonum) and multiflora

rose (Rosa multiflora)

The plant community noted to be dominant in the upland riparian forest community included

red maple (Acer rubrum) sugar maple (Acer saccharum) goldenrod (Solidago spp) Sycamore

(Platanus occidentalis) grape (Vitis spp) honeysuckle (Lonicera spp) black locust Basswood

(Tilia americana) green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica) box elder (Acer negundo) and mile‐a‐

minute vine (Persicaria perfoliata)

The plant community of the PSS wetlands were noted to be dominated by the following

species reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea) redosier dogwood (Cornus sericea)

willowherb (Epilobium ciliatum) box elder late goldenrod (Solidago gigantea) purple

loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria) pussy willow (Salix discolor) and black willow (Salix nigra)

The plant communities of the PEM wetlands were noted to be dominated by the following

species late goldenrod reed canary grass cattail (Typha angustifolia) and rice cut grass

(Leersia oryzoides) Refer to the Data Forms in Appendix B

40 AGENCY RESOURCES

41 USFWS NATIONAL WETLAND INVENTORY

US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) National Wetland Inventory (NWI) mapping shows one

federally mapped regulated wetland located within the SA The wetland is a riverine (R2UBH)

wetland associated with Cobleskill Creek Punch Kill and the unnamed tributaries Refer to

Section 50 and Figure 2 for additional information regarding the NWI mapped wetlands on the

SA

42 NYSDEC FRESHWATER WETLANDS AND PROTECTED STREAMS

The Freshwater Wetlands Act (Article 24 and Title 23 of Article 71 of the Environmental

Conservation Law) gives the NYSDEC jurisdiction over state‐protected wetlands and an adjacent

100‐foot buffer The Freshwater Wetlands Act (FWA) requires the NYSDEC to map all state‐

protected wetlands to allow landowners and other interested parties a means to determine

where state jurisdictional wetlands exist

The NYSDEC wetland maps indicated that there are no mapped state‐protected wetlands on

the SA The nearest state‐protected wetland is identified as Wetland S‐7 and is located

approximately 17 miles to the east of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

Under Article 15 of the Environmental Conservation Law (Protection of Waters) the NYSDEC

has jurisdiction over any activity that disturbs the bed or banks of protected streams A

protected stream is any stream or particular portion of a stream that has been assigned by the

NYSDEC any of the following classifications or standards AA AA(t) A A(t) A(ts) B B(t) B(ts)

C(t) or C(ts) (6 NYCRR Part 701) One NYSDEC stream is located within the SA Stream‐AC

(Punch Kill) Stream‐AC is classified as a Class C (t) stream indicating that it is a water suitable

for supporting a fishery and may contain a trout population Refer to Section 50 and Figure 2

for additional information regarding the streams identified on the SA

43 FEMA 100‐YEAR FLOOD ZONES

One FEMA floodzone was mapped on the SA This floodzone was associated with Cobleskill

Creek and was mapped along the eastern boundary of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

50 RESULTS

LaBella delineated five (5) wetlands and four (4) streams within the SA Please refer to Tables 2

and 3 below for acreages of each wetland and length and width of each stream delineated The

remainder of the SA was considered to be open field upland lawn and ROW habitat and

upland riparian forest These habitats lacked wetland hydrology indicators and hydric soils

The upland plant communities were dominated by dandelion grasses black locust trees wild

carrot spotted knapweed blackberry Fullerrsquos teasle multiflora rose red maple sugar maple

goldenrod sycamore trees grape vine honeysuckle basswood green ash box elder and mile‐

a‐minute vine The Data Forms presented in Appendix B were adequate to characterize all

upland and wetland conditions observed in the SA

Wetland‐AA originates in the central portion of the SA flows from east to west and drains into

Stream‐AA Wetland‐AA appeared to have a hydrologic regime driven by precipitation and

groundwater The boundary of Wetland‐AA was delineated by wetland boundary flags WA‐1

through WA‐20 WAB‐1through WAB‐12 and WAB‐101 through WAB‐112 and is approximately

125‐Acres in area (refer to Figure 3B)

Wetland‐AA is a PSS wetland At the time of the site visit the plant community of Wetland‐AA

60 Conclusions

LaBella delineated two (2) PSS wetlands (Wetland‐AA and Wetland AC) three (3) PEM wetlands

(Wetland‐AD WetlandndashAE and Wetland‐AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA

Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream AD) within the SA

Wetland‐AA is a PSS wetland and is approximately 125‐Acres in area Wetland‐AC is a PSS

wetland and is approximately 0001‐Acres in area Wetland‐AD is a PEM wetland and is

approximately 00009‐Acres in area Wetland‐AE is a PEM wetland and is approximately 012‐

Acres in area Wetland‐AF is a PEM wetland and is approximately 00045‐Acres in area All four

(4) of the streams delineated within the SA were perennial streams Streams‐AA AB AC and

AD Stream‐AA is approximately 73302‐feet in length and 8409‐feet in width Stream‐AB is

approximately 17533‐feet in length and 1148‐feet in width Stream‐AC is approximately

11862‐feet in length and 1162‐feet in width and Stream‐AD is approximately 13511‐feet in

length and 102‐feet in width

The Project Waters were identified based on the observed presence of hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and wetland hydrology indicators The streams were identified based on the

presence of Bed and Bank features and an Ordinary High Water Mark The primary functions

provided by the Project Waters appear to include water retention water quality improvement

wildlife habitat and nutrient production and cycling

All wetland and streams delineated onsite by LaBella are considered to be jurisdictional Waters

of the US (Waters) under the CWA All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek

which flows into Schoharie Creek Schoharie Creek eventually drains into the Hudson River the

nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles east of the SA

As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with the nearest

downstream TNW and so they are considered to be jurisdictional Waters under the CWA Any

Project‐related filling or disturbances within the delineated boundaries of the Project Waters

(as approved by the USACE) will require Federal CWA Section 404 authorization through the

USACE In addition such activities would also require a CWA Section 401 Water Quality

Certification from the NYSDEC These authorizations may be obtained through the Joint Permit

Application procedure if any such Project‐related activities are planned The final jurisdictional

status and boundaries of the Project Waters are subject to final determination by the USACE‐

New York District

From Sherwood Bradley J CIV USARMY CENAN (US) [mailtoBradSherwoodusacearmymil] Sent Monday October 30 2017 1006 AM To Poplar‐Jeffers Ira Subject RE Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project (DA File

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

hydric soils and evidence of wetland hydrology during the growing season (Environmental

Laboratory 1987) All jurisdictional boundaries are subject to verification by the USACE The

jurisdictional status of all Waters will ultimately be determined by the USACE ndash New York

District

The SA is located in the Schoharie Watershed (USGS Hydrologic Unit 02020005) of the Upper

Hudson River basin At the time of the site visit the SA contained two (2) PSS wetlands

(Wetland‐AA and Wetland‐AC) three (3) PEM wetlands (Wetland‐AD Wetland‐AE and

Wetland AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream

AD)

Stream‐AACobleskill Creek originates offsite northwest of the SA and flows northwest to

southeast across the site This stream is located on the eastern portion of the SA and is

classified as a Class C stream by the NYSDEC Stream‐AB originates offsite to the south and

flows south to north before draining into Stream‐AACobleskill Creek Stream‐AB is an

unnamed tributary to Cobleskill Creek and is a NYSDEC class C stream

Wetland‐AA originates from a storm water culvert and flows west to east eventually draining

into Stream AACobleskill Creek

Wetland‐AC is located in the central portion of the SA Wetland‐AC is located in the floodplain

of Stream‐AD Stream‐AD originates offsite to the South and crosses under State Route 7

Stream‐AD flows southeast to northwest and eventually connects to Cobleskill Creek Wetland‐

AD originates on the south side of Route 7 adjacent to Stream‐AD Wetland AD connects to

Stream‐AD and drains south to north

Wetland‐AE is located on the eastern portion of the SA and originates north of State Route 7

Wetland‐ AE crosses under State Route 7 via a culvert and continues to the south side of State

Route 7

Wetland‐AF originates in a ditch line containing wetland vegetation on the north side of State

Route 7 Wetland AF flows south to north and eventually connects to an unnamed tributary of

Cobleskill Creek

Stream‐ACPunch Kill is located in the central portion of the SA Stream ACPunch Kill drains

south to north and eventually drains into Cobleskill Creek Stream ACPunch Kill is a NYSDEC

class C(t) stream

All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek (a 4th order stream) which flows into

Schoharie Creek approximately 3‐miles east of the SA Schoharie Creek drains into Mohawk

Creek approximately 16‐miles to the north Mohawk Creek drains into the Hudson River which

is the nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles to the

east of the SA As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with a

downstream TNW All Project Waters are likely considered jurisdictional under the Clean Water

Act and NYSDEC Freshwater Wetlands Act

34 VEGETATIVE COVER TYPES

The vegetative cover of the SA was characterized as a mosaic of roadside maintained ROW

upland lawns riparian forest two (2) PSS wetlands three (3) PEM wetlands and four (4)

perennial streams

The upland lawn and roadside ROW plant communities within the SA were observed to be

dominated by one or more of the following species dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) grasess

black locust trees (Robinia pseudoacacia) wild carrot (Daucus carota) spotted knapweed

(Centaurea steobe) blackberry (Rubus spp) Fullerrsquos teasle (Dipsacus fullonum) and multiflora

rose (Rosa multiflora)

The plant community noted to be dominant in the upland riparian forest community included

red maple (Acer rubrum) sugar maple (Acer saccharum) goldenrod (Solidago spp) Sycamore

(Platanus occidentalis) grape (Vitis spp) honeysuckle (Lonicera spp) black locust Basswood

(Tilia americana) green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica) box elder (Acer negundo) and mile‐a‐

minute vine (Persicaria perfoliata)

The plant community of the PSS wetlands were noted to be dominated by the following

species reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea) redosier dogwood (Cornus sericea)

willowherb (Epilobium ciliatum) box elder late goldenrod (Solidago gigantea) purple

loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria) pussy willow (Salix discolor) and black willow (Salix nigra)

The plant communities of the PEM wetlands were noted to be dominated by the following

species late goldenrod reed canary grass cattail (Typha angustifolia) and rice cut grass

(Leersia oryzoides) Refer to the Data Forms in Appendix B

41 USFWS NATIONAL WETLAND INVENTORY

US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) National Wetland Inventory (NWI) mapping shows one

federally mapped regulated wetland located within the SA The wetland is a riverine (R2UBH)

wetland associated with Cobleskill Creek Punch Kill and the unnamed tributaries Refer to

Section 50 and Figure 2 for additional information regarding the NWI mapped wetlands on the

SA

42 NYSDEC FRESHWATER WETLANDS AND PROTECTED STREAMS

The Freshwater Wetlands Act (Article 24 and Title 23 of Article 71 of the Environmental

Conservation Law) gives the NYSDEC jurisdiction over state‐protected wetlands and an adjacent

100‐foot buffer The Freshwater Wetlands Act (FWA) requires the NYSDEC to map all state‐

protected wetlands to allow landowners and other interested parties a means to determine

where state jurisdictional wetlands exist

The NYSDEC wetland maps indicated that there are no mapped state‐protected wetlands on

the SA The nearest state‐protected wetland is identified as Wetland S‐7 and is located

approximately 17 miles to the east of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

Under Article 15 of the Environmental Conservation Law (Protection of Waters) the NYSDEC

has jurisdiction over any activity that disturbs the bed or banks of protected streams A

protected stream is any stream or particular portion of a stream that has been assigned by the

NYSDEC any of the following classifications or standards AA AA(t) A A(t) A(ts) B B(t) B(ts)

C(t) or C(ts) (6 NYCRR Part 701) One NYSDEC stream is located within the SA Stream‐AC

(Punch Kill) Stream‐AC is classified as a Class C (t) stream indicating that it is a water suitable

for supporting a fishery and may contain a trout population Refer to Section 50 and Figure 2

for additional information regarding the streams identified on the SA

43 FEMA 100‐YEAR FLOOD ZONES

One FEMA floodzone was mapped on the SA This floodzone was associated with Cobleskill

Creek and was mapped along the eastern boundary of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

60 Conclusions

LaBella delineated two (2) PSS wetlands (Wetland‐AA and Wetland AC) three (3) PEM wetlands

(Wetland‐AD WetlandndashAE and Wetland‐AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA

Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream AD) within the SA

Wetland‐AA is a PSS wetland and is approximately 125‐Acres in area Wetland‐AC is a PSS

wetland and is approximately 0001‐Acres in area Wetland‐AD is a PEM wetland and is

approximately 00009‐Acres in area Wetland‐AE is a PEM wetland and is approximately 012‐

Acres in area Wetland‐AF is a PEM wetland and is approximately 00045‐Acres in area All four

(4) of the streams delineated within the SA were perennial streams Streams‐AA AB AC and

AD Stream‐AA is approximately 73302‐feet in length and 8409‐feet in width Stream‐AB is

approximately 17533‐feet in length and 1148‐feet in width Stream‐AC is approximately

11862‐feet in length and 1162‐feet in width and Stream‐AD is approximately 13511‐feet in

length and 102‐feet in width

The Project Waters were identified based on the observed presence of hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and wetland hydrology indicators The streams were identified based on the

presence of Bed and Bank features and an Ordinary High Water Mark The primary functions

provided by the Project Waters appear to include water retention water quality improvement

wildlife habitat and nutrient production and cycling

All wetland and streams delineated onsite by LaBella are considered to be jurisdictional Waters

of the US (Waters) under the CWA All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek

which flows into Schoharie Creek Schoharie Creek eventually drains into the Hudson River the

nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles east of the SA

As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with the nearest

downstream TNW and so they are considered to be jurisdictional Waters under the CWA Any

Project‐related filling or disturbances within the delineated boundaries of the Project Waters

(as approved by the USACE) will require Federal CWA Section 404 authorization through the

USACE In addition such activities would also require a CWA Section 401 Water Quality

Certification from the NYSDEC These authorizations may be obtained through the Joint Permit

Application procedure if any such Project‐related activities are planned The final jurisdictional

status and boundaries of the Project Waters are subject to final determination by the USACE‐

New York District

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

LaBella Project No 2150949

All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek (a 4th order stream) which flows into

Schoharie Creek approximately 3‐miles east of the SA Schoharie Creek drains into Mohawk

Creek approximately 16‐miles to the north Mohawk Creek drains into the Hudson River which

is the nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles to the

east of the SA As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with a

downstream TNW All Project Waters are likely considered jurisdictional under the Clean Water

Act and NYSDEC Freshwater Wetlands Act

34 VEGETATIVE COVER TYPES

The vegetative cover of the SA was characterized as a mosaic of roadside maintained ROW

upland lawns riparian forest two (2) PSS wetlands three (3) PEM wetlands and four (4)

perennial streams

The upland lawn and roadside ROW plant communities within the SA were observed to be

dominated by one or more of the following species dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) grasess

black locust trees (Robinia pseudoacacia) wild carrot (Daucus carota) spotted knapweed

(Centaurea steobe) blackberry (Rubus spp) Fullerrsquos teasle (Dipsacus fullonum) and multiflora

rose (Rosa multiflora)

The plant community noted to be dominant in the upland riparian forest community included

red maple (Acer rubrum) sugar maple (Acer saccharum) goldenrod (Solidago spp) Sycamore

(Platanus occidentalis) grape (Vitis spp) honeysuckle (Lonicera spp) black locust Basswood

(Tilia americana) green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica) box elder (Acer negundo) and mile‐a‐

minute vine (Persicaria perfoliata)

The plant community of the PSS wetlands were noted to be dominated by the following

species reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea) redosier dogwood (Cornus sericea)

willowherb (Epilobium ciliatum) box elder late goldenrod (Solidago gigantea) purple

loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria) pussy willow (Salix discolor) and black willow (Salix nigra)

The plant communities of the PEM wetlands were noted to be dominated by the following

species late goldenrod reed canary grass cattail (Typha angustifolia) and rice cut grass

(Leersia oryzoides) Refer to the Data Forms in Appendix B

41 USFWS NATIONAL WETLAND INVENTORY

US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) National Wetland Inventory (NWI) mapping shows one

federally mapped regulated wetland located within the SA The wetland is a riverine (R2UBH)

wetland associated with Cobleskill Creek Punch Kill and the unnamed tributaries Refer to

Section 50 and Figure 2 for additional information regarding the NWI mapped wetlands on the

SA

42 NYSDEC FRESHWATER WETLANDS AND PROTECTED STREAMS

The Freshwater Wetlands Act (Article 24 and Title 23 of Article 71 of the Environmental

Conservation Law) gives the NYSDEC jurisdiction over state‐protected wetlands and an adjacent

100‐foot buffer The Freshwater Wetlands Act (FWA) requires the NYSDEC to map all state‐

protected wetlands to allow landowners and other interested parties a means to determine

where state jurisdictional wetlands exist

The NYSDEC wetland maps indicated that there are no mapped state‐protected wetlands on

the SA The nearest state‐protected wetland is identified as Wetland S‐7 and is located

approximately 17 miles to the east of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

Under Article 15 of the Environmental Conservation Law (Protection of Waters) the NYSDEC

has jurisdiction over any activity that disturbs the bed or banks of protected streams A

protected stream is any stream or particular portion of a stream that has been assigned by the

NYSDEC any of the following classifications or standards AA AA(t) A A(t) A(ts) B B(t) B(ts)

C(t) or C(ts) (6 NYCRR Part 701) One NYSDEC stream is located within the SA Stream‐AC

(Punch Kill) Stream‐AC is classified as a Class C (t) stream indicating that it is a water suitable

for supporting a fishery and may contain a trout population Refer to Section 50 and Figure 2

for additional information regarding the streams identified on the SA

43 FEMA 100‐YEAR FLOOD ZONES

One FEMA floodzone was mapped on the SA This floodzone was associated with Cobleskill

Creek and was mapped along the eastern boundary of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

60 Conclusions

LaBella delineated two (2) PSS wetlands (Wetland‐AA and Wetland AC) three (3) PEM wetlands

(Wetland‐AD WetlandndashAE and Wetland‐AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA

Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream AD) within the SA

Wetland‐AA is a PSS wetland and is approximately 125‐Acres in area Wetland‐AC is a PSS

wetland and is approximately 0001‐Acres in area Wetland‐AD is a PEM wetland and is

approximately 00009‐Acres in area Wetland‐AE is a PEM wetland and is approximately 012‐

Acres in area Wetland‐AF is a PEM wetland and is approximately 00045‐Acres in area All four

(4) of the streams delineated within the SA were perennial streams Streams‐AA AB AC and

AD Stream‐AA is approximately 73302‐feet in length and 8409‐feet in width Stream‐AB is

approximately 17533‐feet in length and 1148‐feet in width Stream‐AC is approximately

11862‐feet in length and 1162‐feet in width and Stream‐AD is approximately 13511‐feet in

length and 102‐feet in width

The Project Waters were identified based on the observed presence of hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and wetland hydrology indicators The streams were identified based on the

presence of Bed and Bank features and an Ordinary High Water Mark The primary functions

provided by the Project Waters appear to include water retention water quality improvement

wildlife habitat and nutrient production and cycling

All wetland and streams delineated onsite by LaBella are considered to be jurisdictional Waters

of the US (Waters) under the CWA All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek

which flows into Schoharie Creek Schoharie Creek eventually drains into the Hudson River the

nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles east of the SA

As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with the nearest

downstream TNW and so they are considered to be jurisdictional Waters under the CWA Any

Project‐related filling or disturbances within the delineated boundaries of the Project Waters

(as approved by the USACE) will require Federal CWA Section 404 authorization through the

USACE In addition such activities would also require a CWA Section 401 Water Quality

Certification from the NYSDEC These authorizations may be obtained through the Joint Permit

Application procedure if any such Project‐related activities are planned The final jurisdictional

status and boundaries of the Project Waters are subject to final determination by the USACE‐

New York District

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

41 USFWS NATIONAL WETLAND INVENTORY

US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) National Wetland Inventory (NWI) mapping shows one

federally mapped regulated wetland located within the SA The wetland is a riverine (R2UBH)

wetland associated with Cobleskill Creek Punch Kill and the unnamed tributaries Refer to

Section 50 and Figure 2 for additional information regarding the NWI mapped wetlands on the

SA

42 NYSDEC FRESHWATER WETLANDS AND PROTECTED STREAMS

The Freshwater Wetlands Act (Article 24 and Title 23 of Article 71 of the Environmental

Conservation Law) gives the NYSDEC jurisdiction over state‐protected wetlands and an adjacent

100‐foot buffer The Freshwater Wetlands Act (FWA) requires the NYSDEC to map all state‐

protected wetlands to allow landowners and other interested parties a means to determine

where state jurisdictional wetlands exist

The NYSDEC wetland maps indicated that there are no mapped state‐protected wetlands on

the SA The nearest state‐protected wetland is identified as Wetland S‐7 and is located

approximately 17 miles to the east of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

Under Article 15 of the Environmental Conservation Law (Protection of Waters) the NYSDEC

has jurisdiction over any activity that disturbs the bed or banks of protected streams A

protected stream is any stream or particular portion of a stream that has been assigned by the

NYSDEC any of the following classifications or standards AA AA(t) A A(t) A(ts) B B(t) B(ts)

C(t) or C(ts) (6 NYCRR Part 701) One NYSDEC stream is located within the SA Stream‐AC

(Punch Kill) Stream‐AC is classified as a Class C (t) stream indicating that it is a water suitable

for supporting a fishery and may contain a trout population Refer to Section 50 and Figure 2

for additional information regarding the streams identified on the SA

43 FEMA 100‐YEAR FLOOD ZONES

One FEMA floodzone was mapped on the SA This floodzone was associated with Cobleskill

Creek and was mapped along the eastern boundary of the SA (refer to Figure 2)

60 Conclusions

LaBella delineated two (2) PSS wetlands (Wetland‐AA and Wetland AC) three (3) PEM wetlands

(Wetland‐AD WetlandndashAE and Wetland‐AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA

Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream AD) within the SA

Wetland‐AA is a PSS wetland and is approximately 125‐Acres in area Wetland‐AC is a PSS

wetland and is approximately 0001‐Acres in area Wetland‐AD is a PEM wetland and is

approximately 00009‐Acres in area Wetland‐AE is a PEM wetland and is approximately 012‐

Acres in area Wetland‐AF is a PEM wetland and is approximately 00045‐Acres in area All four

(4) of the streams delineated within the SA were perennial streams Streams‐AA AB AC and

AD Stream‐AA is approximately 73302‐feet in length and 8409‐feet in width Stream‐AB is

approximately 17533‐feet in length and 1148‐feet in width Stream‐AC is approximately

11862‐feet in length and 1162‐feet in width and Stream‐AD is approximately 13511‐feet in

length and 102‐feet in width

The Project Waters were identified based on the observed presence of hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and wetland hydrology indicators The streams were identified based on the

presence of Bed and Bank features and an Ordinary High Water Mark The primary functions

provided by the Project Waters appear to include water retention water quality improvement

wildlife habitat and nutrient production and cycling

All wetland and streams delineated onsite by LaBella are considered to be jurisdictional Waters

of the US (Waters) under the CWA All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek

which flows into Schoharie Creek Schoharie Creek eventually drains into the Hudson River the

nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles east of the SA

As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with the nearest

downstream TNW and so they are considered to be jurisdictional Waters under the CWA Any

Project‐related filling or disturbances within the delineated boundaries of the Project Waters

(as approved by the USACE) will require Federal CWA Section 404 authorization through the

USACE In addition such activities would also require a CWA Section 401 Water Quality

Certification from the NYSDEC These authorizations may be obtained through the Joint Permit

Application procedure if any such Project‐related activities are planned The final jurisdictional

status and boundaries of the Project Waters are subject to final determination by the USACE‐

New York District

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

60 Conclusions

LaBella delineated two (2) PSS wetlands (Wetland‐AA and Wetland AC) three (3) PEM wetlands

(Wetland‐AD WetlandndashAE and Wetland‐AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA

Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream AD) within the SA

Wetland‐AA is a PSS wetland and is approximately 125‐Acres in area Wetland‐AC is a PSS

wetland and is approximately 0001‐Acres in area Wetland‐AD is a PEM wetland and is

approximately 00009‐Acres in area Wetland‐AE is a PEM wetland and is approximately 012‐

Acres in area Wetland‐AF is a PEM wetland and is approximately 00045‐Acres in area All four

(4) of the streams delineated within the SA were perennial streams Streams‐AA AB AC and

AD Stream‐AA is approximately 73302‐feet in length and 8409‐feet in width Stream‐AB is

approximately 17533‐feet in length and 1148‐feet in width Stream‐AC is approximately

11862‐feet in length and 1162‐feet in width and Stream‐AD is approximately 13511‐feet in

length and 102‐feet in width

The Project Waters were identified based on the observed presence of hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and wetland hydrology indicators The streams were identified based on the

presence of Bed and Bank features and an Ordinary High Water Mark The primary functions

provided by the Project Waters appear to include water retention water quality improvement

wildlife habitat and nutrient production and cycling

All wetland and streams delineated onsite by LaBella are considered to be jurisdictional Waters

of the US (Waters) under the CWA All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek

which flows into Schoharie Creek Schoharie Creek eventually drains into the Hudson River the

nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles east of the SA

As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with the nearest

downstream TNW and so they are considered to be jurisdictional Waters under the CWA Any

Project‐related filling or disturbances within the delineated boundaries of the Project Waters

(as approved by the USACE) will require Federal CWA Section 404 authorization through the

USACE In addition such activities would also require a CWA Section 401 Water Quality

Certification from the NYSDEC These authorizations may be obtained through the Joint Permit

Application procedure if any such Project‐related activities are planned The final jurisdictional

status and boundaries of the Project Waters are subject to final determination by the USACE‐

New York District

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

60 Conclusions

LaBella delineated two (2) PSS wetlands (Wetland‐AA and Wetland AC) three (3) PEM wetlands

(Wetland‐AD WetlandndashAE and Wetland‐AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA

Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream AD) within the SA

Wetland‐AA is a PSS wetland and is approximately 125‐Acres in area Wetland‐AC is a PSS

wetland and is approximately 0001‐Acres in area Wetland‐AD is a PEM wetland and is

approximately 00009‐Acres in area Wetland‐AE is a PEM wetland and is approximately 012‐

Acres in area Wetland‐AF is a PEM wetland and is approximately 00045‐Acres in area All four

(4) of the streams delineated within the SA were perennial streams Streams‐AA AB AC and

AD Stream‐AA is approximately 73302‐feet in length and 8409‐feet in width Stream‐AB is

approximately 17533‐feet in length and 1148‐feet in width Stream‐AC is approximately

11862‐feet in length and 1162‐feet in width and Stream‐AD is approximately 13511‐feet in

length and 102‐feet in width

The Project Waters were identified based on the observed presence of hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and wetland hydrology indicators The streams were identified based on the

presence of Bed and Bank features and an Ordinary High Water Mark The primary functions

provided by the Project Waters appear to include water retention water quality improvement

wildlife habitat and nutrient production and cycling

All wetland and streams delineated onsite by LaBella are considered to be jurisdictional Waters

of the US (Waters) under the CWA All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek

which flows into Schoharie Creek Schoharie Creek eventually drains into the Hudson River the

nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles east of the SA

As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with the nearest

downstream TNW and so they are considered to be jurisdictional Waters under the CWA Any

Project‐related filling or disturbances within the delineated boundaries of the Project Waters

(as approved by the USACE) will require Federal CWA Section 404 authorization through the

USACE In addition such activities would also require a CWA Section 401 Water Quality

Certification from the NYSDEC These authorizations may be obtained through the Joint Permit

Application procedure if any such Project‐related activities are planned The final jurisdictional

status and boundaries of the Project Waters are subject to final determination by the USACE‐

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

60 Conclusions

LaBella delineated two (2) PSS wetlands (Wetland‐AA and Wetland AC) three (3) PEM wetlands

(Wetland‐AD WetlandndashAE and Wetland‐AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA

Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream AD) within the SA

Wetland‐AA is a PSS wetland and is approximately 125‐Acres in area Wetland‐AC is a PSS

wetland and is approximately 0001‐Acres in area Wetland‐AD is a PEM wetland and is

approximately 00009‐Acres in area Wetland‐AE is a PEM wetland and is approximately 012‐

Acres in area Wetland‐AF is a PEM wetland and is approximately 00045‐Acres in area All four

(4) of the streams delineated within the SA were perennial streams Streams‐AA AB AC and

AD Stream‐AA is approximately 73302‐feet in length and 8409‐feet in width Stream‐AB is

approximately 17533‐feet in length and 1148‐feet in width Stream‐AC is approximately

11862‐feet in length and 1162‐feet in width and Stream‐AD is approximately 13511‐feet in

length and 102‐feet in width

The Project Waters were identified based on the observed presence of hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and wetland hydrology indicators The streams were identified based on the

presence of Bed and Bank features and an Ordinary High Water Mark The primary functions

provided by the Project Waters appear to include water retention water quality improvement

wildlife habitat and nutrient production and cycling

All wetland and streams delineated onsite by LaBella are considered to be jurisdictional Waters

of the US (Waters) under the CWA All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek

LaBella Project No 2150949

which flows into Schoharie Creek Schoharie Creek eventually drains into the Hudson River the

nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles east of the SA

As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with the nearest

downstream TNW and so they are considered to be jurisdictional Waters under the CWA Any

Project‐related filling or disturbances within the delineated boundaries of the Project Waters

(as approved by the USACE) will require Federal CWA Section 404 authorization through the

USACE In addition such activities would also require a CWA Section 401 Water Quality

Certification from the NYSDEC These authorizations may be obtained through the Joint Permit

Application procedure if any such Project‐related activities are planned The final jurisdictional

status and boundaries of the Project Waters are subject to final determination by the USACE‐

New York District

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

60 Conclusions

LaBella delineated two (2) PSS wetlands (Wetland‐AA and Wetland AC) three (3) PEM wetlands

(Wetland‐AD WetlandndashAE and Wetland‐AF) and four (4) perennial streams (Stream‐AA

Stream‐AB Stream‐AC and Stream AD) within the SA

Wetland‐AA is a PSS wetland and is approximately 125‐Acres in area Wetland‐AC is a PSS

wetland and is approximately 0001‐Acres in area Wetland‐AD is a PEM wetland and is

approximately 00009‐Acres in area Wetland‐AE is a PEM wetland and is approximately 012‐

Acres in area Wetland‐AF is a PEM wetland and is approximately 00045‐Acres in area All four

(4) of the streams delineated within the SA were perennial streams Streams‐AA AB AC and

AD Stream‐AA is approximately 73302‐feet in length and 8409‐feet in width Stream‐AB is

approximately 17533‐feet in length and 1148‐feet in width Stream‐AC is approximately

11862‐feet in length and 1162‐feet in width and Stream‐AD is approximately 13511‐feet in

length and 102‐feet in width

The Project Waters were identified based on the observed presence of hydrophytic vegetation

hydric soils and wetland hydrology indicators The streams were identified based on the

presence of Bed and Bank features and an Ordinary High Water Mark The primary functions

provided by the Project Waters appear to include water retention water quality improvement

wildlife habitat and nutrient production and cycling

All wetland and streams delineated onsite by LaBella are considered to be jurisdictional Waters

of the US (Waters) under the CWA All Project Waters eventually drain to Cobleskill Creek

‐ 12 ‐Wetland and Stream Delineation Report

LaBella Project No 2150949

which flows into Schoharie Creek Schoharie Creek eventually drains into the Hudson River the

nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles east of the SA

As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with the nearest

downstream TNW and so they are considered to be jurisdictional Waters under the CWA Any

Project‐related filling or disturbances within the delineated boundaries of the Project Waters

(as approved by the USACE) will require Federal CWA Section 404 authorization through the

USACE In addition such activities would also require a CWA Section 401 Water Quality

Certification from the NYSDEC These authorizations may be obtained through the Joint Permit

Application procedure if any such Project‐related activities are planned The final jurisdictional

status and boundaries of the Project Waters are subject to final determination by the USACE‐

New York District

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

which flows into Schoharie Creek Schoharie Creek eventually drains into the Hudson River the

nearest Traditionally Navigable Water (TNW) to the SA approximately 35 miles east of the SA

As such the SA wetlands were determined to have a significant nexus with the nearest

downstream TNW and so they are considered to be jurisdictional Waters under the CWA Any

Project‐related filling or disturbances within the delineated boundaries of the Project Waters

(as approved by the USACE) will require Federal CWA Section 404 authorization through the

USACE In addition such activities would also require a CWA Section 401 Water Quality

Certification from the NYSDEC These authorizations may be obtained through the Joint Permit

Application procedure if any such Project‐related activities are planned The final jurisdictional

status and boundaries of the Project Waters are subject to final determination by the USACE‐

New York District

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

From Sherwood Bradley J CIV USARMY CENAN (US) [mailtoBradSherwoodusacearmymil] Sent Monday October 30 2017 1006 AM To Poplar‐Jeffers Ira Subject RE Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project (DA File

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

From Sherwood Bradley J CIV USARMY CENAN (US) [mailtoBradSherwoodusacearmymil] Sent Monday October 30 2017 1006 AM To Poplar‐Jeffers Ira Subject RE Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project (DA File

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

From Sherwood Bradley J CIV USARMY CENAN (US) [mailtoBradSherwoodusacearmymil] Sent Monday October 30 2017 1006 AM To Poplar‐Jeffers Ira Subject RE Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project (DA File

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

From Sherwood Bradley J CIV USARMY CENAN (US) [mailtoBradSherwoodusacearmymil] Sent Monday October 30 2017 1006 AM To Poplar‐Jeffers Ira Subject RE Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project (DA File

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

From Sherwood Bradley J CIV USARMY CENAN (US) [mailtoBradSherwoodusacearmymil] Sent Monday October 30 2017 1006 AM To Poplar‐Jeffers Ira Subject RE Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project (DA File

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

From Sherwood Bradley J CIV USARMY CENAN (US) [mailtoBradSherwoodusacearmymil] Sent Monday October 30 2017 1006 AM To Poplar‐Jeffers Ira Subject RE Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project (DA File

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

From Sherwood Bradley J CIV USARMY CENAN (US) [mailtoBradSherwoodusacearmymil] Sent Monday October 30 2017 1006 AM To Poplar‐Jeffers Ira Subject RE Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project (DA File

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

From Sherwood Bradley J CIV USARMY CENAN (US) [mailtoBradSherwoodusacearmymil] Sent Monday October 30 2017 1006 AM To Poplar‐Jeffers Ira Subject RE Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project (DA File

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

From Sherwood Bradley J CIV USARMY CENAN (US) [mailtoBradSherwoodusacearmymil] Sent Monday October 30 2017 1006 AM To Poplar‐Jeffers Ira Subject RE Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project (DA File

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

From Sherwood Bradley J CIV USARMY CENAN (US) [mailtoBradSherwoodusacearmymil] Sent Monday October 30 2017 1006 AM To Poplar‐Jeffers Ira Subject RE Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project (DA File

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

From Sherwood Bradley J CIV USARMY CENAN (US) [mailtoBradSherwoodusacearmymil] Sent Monday October 30 2017 1006 AM To Poplar‐Jeffers Ira Subject RE Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project (DA File

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

From Sherwood Bradley J CIV USARMY CENAN (US) [mailtoBradSherwoodusacearmymil] Sent Monday October 30 2017 1006 AM To Poplar‐Jeffers Ira Subject RE Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project (DA File

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

From Sherwood Bradley J CIV USARMY CENAN (US) [mailtoBradSherwoodusacearmymil] Sent Monday October 30 2017 1006 AM To Poplar‐Jeffers Ira Subject RE Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project (DA File

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Good morning Ira

I apologize for the delay in getting you a response

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted

I am in receipt of the revised drawings and they appear to be an accurate depiction of the wetland boundaries Please keep in mind that this is neither an approved or preliminary jurisdiction determination (JD) just a confirmation that the drawings appear accurate

With regards to your two questions

1 If you are going to seek an approved JD or a preliminary JD then yes a full delineation report will be necessary However if it will be submitted as part of an application package then you can just provide all the specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc)

2 They should be submitted as one unless you can make the justification that they are separate and complete projects (which I donʹt think they are)

Thanks Brad

Mr Sherwood

Please see the attached revised wetland delineation maps for the proposed Schoharie Public Safety Complex Project at 373 Howes Cave Road Schoharie Schoharie County NY Please consider this email a request for an informal confirmation letter (or email) from your office confirming the wetland boundaries submitted within the Wetland and Stream Delineation Report for this Site as amended by the attached three (3) drawings

We plan to submit a PCN for this Project in the near future Therefore a formal Jurisdictional Determination is not required at this time

Also as discussed there will be a utility corridor extension for this project We plan to perform a wetland delineation along the proposed corridor in the near future I have two questions 1) Is a formal Wetland Report for the utility corridor required to be submitted to your office or would specific critical review items (ie Data Forms Photos Soils Information Maps and Figures etc) suffice 2) What is your perspective on permitting these Projects (ie the Public Safety Complex Development and the Utility Corridor) separately vs as one single complete Project I believe I remember that you indicated that they must be permitted as one Permit Application together Is this the case Or can the Development Site and the Utility Corridor Projects have separate Permit Applications and Reviews to the USACE

Please confirm that you have received the attached information and plan to perform a review as soon as possible

Respectfully Submitted
