The boundary of the project area. <br />Response: The boundary of the project area on Map 2, Hogue Gravel Pit Expansion Area <br />- Wetland Delineation Map clearly shows the boundary of the project area on it. <br />All features which meet the criteria for wetlands or other waters of the United States. <br />Response: There is only one feature which meets the criteria for jurisdictional waters of <br />the United States on this site. These areas correspond to jurisdictional wetlands. There are no areas of <br />streams, with an associated ordinary high water mark or other areas of open found on this site. All of the <br />wetland areas are shown on Map 2, Hogue Gravel Pit Expansion Area - Wetland Delineation Map. <br />Color or thatched coding of the different wetland types present. <br />Response: Map 2, Hogue Gravel Pit Expansion Area - Wetland Delineation Map has been <br />prepared and color coded to show the locations of the herbaceous wetlands found on this property. <br />Topography. <br />Response: The topographic base map of the Hogue Gravel Pit Expansion site has been <br />taken from a base map prepared in 2010 by Emerald Mountain Surveys. This map shows the topographic <br />contours of the site at a two foot contour interval and in this report is presented as a one inch equals 40 <br />feet map. The area corresponding to the active mine workings do not have topography shown. The <br />contours outside of the immediate mine pit area are pertinent to this evaluation and are shown. <br />Clearly and accurately identified data point locations and the location and identification number of <br />surveyed or GPS established flags, stakes, or wetland boundaries. <br />Response: Map 2, Hogue Gravel Pit Expansion Area - Wetland Delineation Map at the <br />scale of 1:40 feet clearly shows the location of every wetland boundary stake, wetland sample plot <br />location along with the wetland/upland boundaries for the area evaluated in this delineation effort. <br />All waters of the U.S., including but not limited to, interstate waters, tributaries, wetlands, and all <br />other waters such as intrastate lakes, rivers, streams, and mudflats as described in 33 CFR 328.3, <br />must be shown on the delineation map. Those features which meet wetlands criteria or are <br />potential waters of the U.S., but which may be isolated and lacking an interstate or foreign <br />commerce connection or non jurisdictional for other reasons must still be shown on the map. Any <br />justification for the Corps to make a non-jurisdictional determination should be provided in the <br />report. <br />Response: The only jurisdictional waters of the United States in this area are herbaceous <br />wetlands. No streams are shown on this map as the Yampa River is located between 200 and 400 feet to <br />the south of this area These wetland areas are clearly shown on Map 2, Hogue Gravel Pit Expansion Area <br />- Wetland Delineation Map. <br />Standard mapping conventions (e.g. north arrow, location map, etc.) And other identifying features <br />which facilitate the correlation of map locations with ground features, (e.g., buildings, fence lines, <br />roads, right-of-ways, trees, streams, topographic features, etc.).
