NAME OF APPLICANT:  HNTB Corporation, c/o ELOS Environmental, LLC., ATTN: Flynn Daigle, 43177 E. Pleasant Ridge Road, Hammond, Louisiana 70403

LOCATION OF WORK:  In wetlands and uplands between Ashland Road and St. Landry Avenue, Gonzales, in Ascension Parish, Louisiana, within the Lake Maurepas basin in hydrological unit (HUC 08070204) , as shown on the attached drawings (Latitude: 30.202178/Longitude: -90.962119). 

CHARACTER OF WORK: The applicant has requested Department of the Army authorization to clear, grade, excavate and deposit fill and/or aggregate material to construct and maintain a new roadway connecting Ashland Road and St. Landry Avenue. The proposed roadway will be approximately half a mile long and contain two 12-foot wide lanes with a 4-foot wide shoulder on either side for a width of 32 feet.  Additionally, 12-foot wide right-turn lanes will be placed at the tie-in at Ashland Road and St. Landry Avenue. Ditches will be constructed on either side of the roadway. The total right-of-way will be 120 feet wide.  Approximately 3,121 cubic yards of stone material and 1,030 cubic yards of asphalt material will be hauled in and deposited to achieve required grade elevation requirements.  The proposed project is situated on an approximately 73.65-acre tract that has been determined to be comprised of 47.18 acres of uplands and 26.47 acres of forested wetlands.  The project site itself will encompass approximately 7.26 acres and will impact approximately 0.67 acres to construct the road.  The remainder of the property will be left in its natural state. 

The applicant has designed the project to avoid and minimize direct and secondary adverse impacts to the maximum extent practicable. As compensation for unavoidable wetland impacts, the applicant proposes to mitigate in-kind wetland credits from a Corps approved mitigation bank located in the watershed.
