David Flick, Principal and Founder, announces that the firm successfully completed Section 404/401 Clean Water Act permitting for the Siena Multifamily Residential Development in Leawood, Kansas. When constructed, the development will provide several hundred multifamily residences along the 135 th Street corridor of Southern Leawood.
Scientists with Terra Technologies completed a jurisdictional assessment of potential waters of the United States within the limits of the proposed development project. A limited length of stream channel and 1.06 acres of farm pond fringe and degraded pasture wetlands were identified as unavoidable impacts to jurisdictional waters. The project minimized impacts to receiving waters through the use of upland best management practices including an extended wetland detention basin.
Due to the permanent loss of wetlands, mitigation credits will be purchased from the Stranger Creek Wetland and Stream Mitigation Bank where such surface waters are preserved through perpetuity under management by Terra Technologies.
