All work will have to be done by hand and the tram system <br /> will need to be utilized to bring in and remove materials. The existing retaining walls are in very poor shape and need <br /> to be removed or replaced soon. Vegetation will be stable at a 2:1 slope. Steeper slopes do not support vegetation <br /> very well,and erosion occurs. Most of the bank where the tramp is located is steeper than 2:1,which requires special <br /> efforts to be made to maximize the vegetation on the slope. Soil disturbing activities must be kept to a minimum <br /> Given this information,it is necessaryto replace part of the large retaining wall and the mid-sized walls. Remove the <br /> small retaining walls,fill to original grade,seed,mulch,and net. (Enclosed is list of recommended vegetation.) The <br /> retaining walls that are replaced must have a drainage system and proper anchoring. A"typical" drawing of a retaining <br /> wall is enclosed to show how to install the drainage system behind it. Follow manufacturers'specification when <br /> installing,and use their recommendations for anchoring and drainage. Please pay particular attention to their height <br /> recommendations. <br /> Enclosed is an erosion control plan. The silt fence and straw bales must be in place before beginning any work and <br /> shall remain in place until vegetation is well established. Also,contact the Burnett County Zoning Department before <br /> beginning any work on the site to obtain any necessary permits. <br /> If you have any questions or concerns,please call me at(715) 485-8630. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> tjL'i Tl " ? � <br /> rZalar <br /> eering Technician <br /> Burnett County Land&Water Conservation Department <br /> cc: Mr.David Ferris,Burnett Land and Water Conservation Department" <br /> V'�lr.Jim Flanigan,Burnett County Land Use and Zoning Administration <br /> V <br />
