• Approximately 120 square feet of permanent waterway impacts
• Approximately 3,900 cubic feet of fill within floodplain, compensated for with an approximately 4,200 cubic feet compensatory flood storage area
• Temporary impacts due to construction activities. Temporary impacts to resources areas will be restored upon completion of work.
