David Flick, Principal and Founder, announces that the firm successfully completed Section 404/401 Clean Water Act permitting for the Newmark Residential Development in Kansas City Missouri. The development will help meet the demand for residential homes in the northwestern area of Clay County Missouri.
Scientists with Terra Technologies completed a jurisdictional assessment of potential waters of the United States and to document existing site conditions. The parcel is approximately 10 acres in size and consists of agricultural and forested land. One intermittent stream totaling 214 lineal feet and two wetlands totaling 0.11 acres were delineated on the property.
The applicant received a Nationwide Permit 29 verification letter authorizing unavoidable impacts to jurisdictional surface waters. For avoidance, the applicant will preserve the existing riparian corridor on the western project extent. For minimization, the applicant will construct a stormwater quality BMP and wetland detention basin in compliance with municipal requirements. As impacts are below 0.10 acres of permanent loss, the applicant is not required to provide compensatory mitigation.
