Info

For those impacts considered adverse, and caused as a result of actions proposed in the application, explain how they will be minimized or eliminated. Adverse impacts which cannot be mitigated should be identified and discussed in the next section. (You may not be able to mitigate every adverse impact, but each one should be considered.) For example: • The use of erosion controls to prevent soil run-off during construction. • Facility designs which include measures to ensure public safety minimize environmental pollution conserve energy allow for cost-efficient maintenance operation and security the aiming of, or timed-use of lighting systems to minimize disturbances to adjacent property owners and nocturnal wildlife • Replace or reestablish specialized habitat which will be lost or partially lost as a result of the project’s actions. A copy of all applications will be reviewed by the Fisheries and Wildlife divisions at TPWD. VII. MAPS AND PHOTOGRAPHS • Provide a USGS 7.5’ topographic quadrangle map that clearly delineates exact location of the site and it’s boundaries. This can be printed for free at the following website: http://www.usgs.gov/pubprod/, under “maps,” click “download digital scans of topo maps” and click “map locator.” • Attach aerial photo of site and indicate the year the photo was taken. • Provide color photos of the site and surrounding area with captions or narratives. VIII. FLOODPLAIN AND WETLAND DOCUMENTATION All projects within a floodplain, floodway, or wetland area must include this documentation. Exemptions from this documentation are no longer valid. This section is necessary only if the project involves floodplain or wetland areas, pursuant to Executive Order 11988 (Floodplain Management) and Executive Order 11990 (Protection of Wetlands). If the project does not involve floodplain or wetland areas, state that fact. DEFINITIONS Floodplain: The lowland and relatively flat areas adjoining inland and coastal waters including floodprone areas of offshore islands, including at a minimum the 100-year floodplain. Wetlands: Those areas that are inundated by surface or ground water with a frequency sufficient to support, and under normal circumstances do or would support, a prevalence of vegetative or aquatic life that requires saturated or seasonally saturated soil conditions for growth and reproduction. Wetlands generally include swamps, marshes, bogs, and similar areas such as sloughs, potholes, wet meadows, river overflows, mud flats, and natural ponds. PWD 1071 – P4000 (12/10) 26
DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS Public Notification: The project must inform the public that the proposed project will be located in a floodplain/wetland area, and that the project will have certain environmental impacts on that floodplain/wetland area, and must allow public comment. The following actions must be taken: A. The applicant must publish a notice in the local media describing the proposed action in the floodplain or wetland area and invite the public to provide their views on the proposal. This may be done by holding a public hearing or making the plans and other pertinent materials available for review at a public place (i.e., city hall, courthouse, library, etc.). Describe actions taken. B. The application must contain a copy of the published notice and any public comments received. If no public comments are received, this must be clearly stated. Any public hearing or comments received within two years of the application submission will be accepted. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION C. The following environmental information focusing on the floodplain or wetland activity must be included and attached in this section of the application: • The extent of the direct and indirect impacts of the project on the floodplain/wetland area. • Measures to be taken to minimize harm to lives and property and to the natural and beneficial floodplain/wetland values. • Alternative actions and locations considered in the event of an adverse impact of the project on floodplain/wetland values. • Assurance that all state and local floodplain and wetland regulations are being met. • A map delineating the floodplain/wetland area as it applies to the proposed project (highlight the project area).
