ST. GABRIEL MITIGATION BANK IN ALLEN PARISH

NAME OF APPLICANT: St. Gabriel Resources, LLC; Care of: Southland Environmental, LLC; Attention: Cleveland Hoffpauir; 510 Clarence Street; Lake Charles, Louisiana 70601.

LOCATION OF WORK:  The 165.13-acre site is located approximately 8 miles west of Kinder, Louisiana, in Allen Parish as shown on attached drawings (Latitude: 30.509563° N, Longitude:–92.985540° W).  The Project is located within the Upper Calcasieu Watershed, Hydrologic Unit 08080203.

CHARACTER OF WORK:   Existing elevated road beds and associated drainage located on the western boundary and north central area of the tract will be mechanically leveled to natural grade in an effort to restore hydrologic sheet flow.  The existing loblolly pine plantation will be commercially harvested, and any remaining elevated earthen beds associated with the pine plantation (that were not eliminated by the mechanical harvest equipment) will be removed utilizing a mechanical drum chopping technique to restore natural contours.  Additionally, a 16-inch diameter culvert will be installed in an existing access road that is necessary for pipeline right-of-way maintenance and well pad access.  The culvert will be installed within a flatwoods pond area to provide hydrologic connectivity.  Approximately 139.95 acres of the site will be planted with longleaf pine seedlings, and 19.08 acres of existing bottomland hardwood forest will be preserved under the subject conservation servitude.  All work is being done for the purpose of constructing a wetland mitigation bank.
