This is not -meant to be a complete summary of all <br />wetland regulations, but at least the ones relevant to your 'stated intentions for your property. <br />It appears that the jurisdictional wetland boundary on your property roughly coincides with the <br />location of your back fence line. As we discussed, applicable wetland regulations prohibit any <br />filling, draining, or excavating In jurisdictional wetland. If you vv sh to extend your yard into the. <br />wetland area you may do so as long se It does not involve any ;ming, draining, or excavation. <br />You would be allowed to clear existing vegetation by tree cutting and mowing and you can seed <br />the area. In addition, 'if -you remove some dead stumps you would be allowed to fill the holes as <br />long as you do not raise the elevation above the existing ground. The addition of sod or topsoil <br />to the area would be. considered as wetland fill and would be a violation. l would strongly <br />recommend that you avoid the use of heavy equipment in. the wetland as this inevitably results <br />in -some wetland fill or excavation. Please contact me if you have additional -questions or <br />concerns. <br />Sincerely <br />Ken Powell <br />Permit Coordinator, Prof. Wetland Scientist <br />FWD Perm/ rite D4 -1t3R <br />City or Una Lek= <br />District inspecar <br />District Engineer <br />-35- <br />
