Hydrologic Unit Codes: 08090100 Lower Mississippi River - New Orleans and 080900301 East Central Louisiana Coastal.

CHARACTER OF WORK: Clear, grade, excavate, and deposit fill for a 200 acre bulk liquid export terminal facility including: tank storage area/s with supporting infrastructure, dock, additional rail spurs, and rail off-loading facility. Project implementation will require excavation and deposition of 150,250 cubic yards of native material, 14,000 cubic yards of rock, 65,500 cubic yards of crushed stone or gravel, and 20 cubic yards of concrete.

The proposed 200 acre parcel was originally part of Department of the Army permit authorization for RAM Terminals, LLC. Currently proposed project design would directly impact 19.6 acres of jurisdictional wetlands; 3.7 acres of the proposed direct impacts to jurisdictional wetlands have been compensated for through the previous Department of the Army authorization. The applicant proposes to contract with an approved mitigation bank in order to offset unavoidable adverse impacts to jurisdictional wetlands.
