The site includes an existing wetland, as well as an old wetland mitigation area that was constructed in the 1990's. SCOPE of SERVICES: Antea Group will provide wetland consulting services for the project and objective referenced above. Antea Group will proceed with the following work plan designed to accomplish this work. PROPOSED WORK PLAN: 1). Wetland Determination: Perform a wetland determination during the fall of 2011 prior to snow cover. The determination will identify the boundaries of the jurisdictional wetland for planning purposes, and will generate a CAD file to be incorporated into the site plan. 2). Pre -Application TEP Meeting: Once a site plan has been developed to a level where potential wetland impacts can be quantified, a meeting with the Technical Evaluation Panel (TEP) will be arranged. The meeting agenda will include discussion regarding the proposed development plan for the site, and likely wetland impacts. While the TEP has previously indicated verbally they would favor the proposed development and impacts, this subject should be revisited to ensure regulatory support. It is assumed that one meeting, plus time to prepare documents, a preliminary sequencing analysis, and exhibits for the meeting will be needed.
