Meyer, Secretary <br />Telephone 608-266-2621 <br />Toll Free 1-888-936-7463 <br />TTY Access via relay - 711 <br />[WISCONSIN <br />DEPT ROF NANRAL RESOURCES <br />Thank you for the information regarding the project referenced above. Based on the information provided to the <br />Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) on March 7, 2018, the final project design addresses the <br />environmental issues raised through the initial review letter and coordination process. DNR has determined that <br />the water quality, floodplain and wetland protection objectives of the DNR/DOT (Wisconsin Department of <br />Transportation) Cooperative Agreement have been met. This concurrence also constitutes Water Quality <br />Certification pursuant to Section 401, under the Federal Clean Water Act. The DNR has evaluated this proposal <br />and has determined that this activity will be conducted in a manner which is consistent with the standards <br />contained in chapters NR 103 and NR 299, Wis. Adm. Code, Water Quality Certification is granted. <br />Should the scope of the project change, consultation with this agency must be reinitiated. Further comment on the <br />project may be presented at the preconstruction conference. This final concurrence is conditioned on the project <br />construction being in conformance with our initial review letter and other previous coordination, with the <br />DNR/DOT Cooperative Agreement and on the following project specific conditions: <br />Wetlands: <br />This project will result in the filling of 0.02 acres of wetlands. The DNR understands that these losses will be <br />charged against the Lauritsen Mitigation bank in Burnett County. The wetland type(s) is classified as scrub/shrub <br />and will be mitigated with 0.02 acres of wooded swamp at a 1:1 ratio classified as for a total of 0.02 acres. <br />Fisheries/Stream Work: <br />The North Fork Clam River is a Class I trout stream. In order to protect developing fish eggs and substrate for <br />aquatic organisms, all instream work that could adversely impact water quality should be undertaken between <br />June 1 and September 1, <br />Waterway and Floodplain: <br />Based on your computations, the Qjoo discharge is 1,300 efs, resulting in a predicted upstream water surface <br />elevation of 1122.10 feet. As this is slightly lower than the existing condition, DNR has no habitat concerns as it <br />pertains to these predicted floodplain elevations. However, if the floodplain will be raised or lowered, in <br />accordance with the DNR/DOT Cooperative Agreement, DOT must notify the Burnett County Zoning <br />dnr.wi.gov o <br />wisconsin.gov Naturally WISCONSIN AMA "°� <br />
