If you can design your project to meet all or most of the requirements of the Programmatic Biological Evaluation as summarized on this List below, then the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' (Corps) ESA review of your permit application will be expedited and streamlined. The submittal of this List to the Corps is not required. However, to further expedite your review, you may include a description of how you meet these requirements in your permit application materials. Programmatic ESA Requirements 1. Work will be performed within the approved work windows for listed species and Xforage fish. The action shall only occur once within the approved work window for a single and complete project. These work windows are located on the Corps website at www.nws.usace.army.mil. Select Regulatory Branch, Permit Information, Permit Guidebook, Chapter X. Work Windows. (Note: Work windows are only required to meet NMFS programmatic conditions. Work windows are required for the USFWS programmatic only if the buoy will be installed in or within 328 feet of documented forage fish spawning habitat, work will only occur during the appropriate forage fish work window. Otherwise, no work window restriction for USFWS programmatic.) X2. Activity is limited to placement of mooring buoys for single boat, non- commercial use. 3. Buoy location will be accessed by a small boat or dinghy. 4. Buoy installation will take place as follows: X 0 One or two SCUBA divers will screw a helical anchor into the substrate. b. If the substrate is too hard for a helical screw, a 5-gallon bucket filled with cured concrete will be used. c. If substrate is too hard for a helical screw and a 5-gallon bucket filled with concrete is not adequate, a fully cured concrete block or steel anchor up to a maximum weight of 2.5 tons and maximum size of 4 cubic yards dependent on buoy size can be used. — 5. Uncured concrete will not be allowed to come into ontact with surface water. 6. Buoys will be placed at a tidal elevation between ; feet relative to Mean Lower XLow Water (MLLW) and -30 feet relative to MLLW or, in freshwater, at a depth of greater than 15 feet. (Note: Required to meet NMFS programmatic conditions only. No depth requirement for USFWS programmatic conditions.) 7. The buoy will be 3 feet or less in diameter, made of a Styrofoam ball with plastic Xcoating and a steel rod through the center with key holes at the top and bottom: one for the anchor attachment and one for the boat moorage. 01 Programmatic ESA Requirements 8. The anchor, buoy, and moored vessel will not be located over or within 25 feet of vegetated shallows (e.g. eelgrass; except where such vegetation is limited to State - designated noxious weeds). The anchor must be located at least 25 feet plus the length of the moored structure from vegetated shallows. 9. The anchor, buoy, and moored vessel will not be located over or within 25 feet of X spawning habitat for forage fish species. The anchor must be located at least 25 feet plus the length of the moored structure from spawning habitat, 10. Buoys will not exceed four per acre at any time. 11. Buoy anchors will be installed so that the anchor line does not drag or scour. 12. Flotation will be completely contained to prevent breakup. 13. Moored vessels will not ground out at low water. GENERAL CONDITIONS (as applicable) Gl. No new access roads, routes, or trails will be included as part of the proposed action. a G2. Any fill material (e.g., sand, gravel, and rock) will be washed and cleaned prior to being brought to the site. G3. All fill material will be obtained from a commercial source that is operating in compliance with the Endangered Species Act. G4. No stockpiling or staging of material will occur waterward of the Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM) or High Tide Line (currently MHHW). G5. No trenching will occur through any water of the U.S. (i.e., for electrical cables). G6. No work will be performed and structures and fill materials will not be placed in or adjacent to vegetated shallows (e.g. eelgrass; except where such vegetation is limited to State -designated noxious weeds), wetlands, special aquatic sites, or suitable forage fish spawning habitat. G7. Barges will not be used within 25 feet and material will not be placed in or on vegetated shallows (e.g. eelgrass; except where such vegetation is limited to State - designated noxious weeds) or other special aquatic sites. G8. If a barge is used to deliver material, the barge or other structures shall not ground out on the bottom. G9. The bottom of any structure, vessel, watercraft grid or watercraft lift will be at least 1 foot above the level of the substrate during all water levels. G 10. All equipment that will operate over water or waterward of the OHWM or High Tide Line will be cleaned of accumulated grease, oil, or mud. All leaks will be repaired prior to arriving on site. Equipment will be inspected daily for leaks, accumulations of grease, etc., and any identified problems will be fixed before operating over water or below the OHWM or High Tide Line. G 11. No solvents or other chemicals will be used in or over the water during the construction or operation of the proposed action. I' NEx' ..? P605, A/W. "'Mr - mom 2. _..__.__ .. 1ft.
