NAME OF APPLICANT:  RANDALL RICHARDSON c/o Michael Henry, 2323 Hwy 190 E, Suite 2, Hammond, LA 70401. 

LOCATION OF WORK:  At the end of Rebecca Lane and abutting the Belle River, Latitude 29.860805, Longitude -91.197744, Pierre Part, Louisiana, in Assumption Parish, within the Terrebonne Basin in hydrologic unit (HUC 08090302), as shown on the attached drawings. 

The work described below was partially completed prior to obtaining a Department of the Army permit and was in violation of Section 301 of the Clean Water Act.  All legal issues concerning the unauthorized work have since been deferred.

CHARACTER OF WORK:  The applicant has requested Department of the Army ATF authorization to clear, grade, excavate and deposit fill and/or aggregate material and excavate waters to construct and maintain a residential house, boat shed, boat ramp, and bulkhead along the Belle River and adjacent to a canal. Approximately 3,098 cubic yards of fill were excavated and placed on site and 458 cubic yards of concrete were placed on site for the development of the property. The ATF project is situated on an approximately 1.843-acre tract that has been determined to be wetlands prior to the development of the site. The entire tract was utilized to construct the residential development and appurtenances. The project impacted 1.313 acres of wetlands. It is anticipated that the action had a minimal impact on adjacent wetlands.   

The applicant claims that mitigation will be purchased at an approved bank within the Terrebonne Basin.

The applicant may be required to fully or partially restore the site to pre-project conditions if issuance of a permit is determined to be contrary to the public interest.
