LOCATION OF WORK:  Adjacent to the Abita River, on the north side of Harrison Avenue, approximately half a mile east of Highway 190, in Covington, Saint Tammany Parish, Louisiana, as shown on the attached drawings.

CHARACTER OF WORK:  To clear, grade, excavate, and install and maintain fill to construct lots, streets, a detention pond, and other associated infrastructure for a 138-lot subdivision.  Construction will permanently impact 4.35 acres of non-tidal forested wetlands and will require 3,300 cubic yards of fill.  The tidal wetlands along the Abita River, as well as a green space between the development and these wetlands, will be avoided.  The applicant proposes to buy credits from a mitigation bank to offset any unavoidable losses to wetland functions caused by project implementation.
