To construct, operate and maintain a 24-inch gas transmission pipeline with the following encroachments: 1) Temporary wetland impacts totaling 7.54 acres with 3.91 acres of palustrine emergent wetlands (PEM), 2.99 acres of palustrine forested open water wetlands (PFO) and 0.15 acre of palustrine scrub shrub wetlands (PSS) for construction of the pipeline and 0.45 acre of (PEM) and 0.04 acre (PFO) for construction of temporary access roads. Impacts to EV wetlands associated with this project total 5.65 acres. The applicant proposes to replace the functions and values of palustrine forested open water wetlands (2.99 acres) and palustrine scrub shrub wetlands (0.15 acre) that will be permanently converted to palustrine emergent wetlands because of the right of way maintenance requirements; and 2) Temporary stream impacts from the construction of pipeline crossings will total 4,730 linear feet and construction of temporary access roads will impact 1,447 linear feet of a variety of streams classified as CWF, HQ or EV watersheds.
There are a total of 63 individual stream crossings and 66 wetland crossings. Stream crossings for access roads and pipelines would normally qualify for a general permit or waiver except for three stream crossings with a total impact of 395 linear feet. Temporary wetland crossings for access roads would normally qualify for a general permit, but 21 pipeline wetland crossings require separate authorization because they would not meet the conditions of a general permit.

Gas line crossings shall be constructed with a minimum of 3 feet of cover. Trench plugs or clay dikes shall be used at every gas line crossing a waterway or wetland to ensure the hydrology of the streams or wetland is not altered. The project will impact 365 linear feet of jurisdictional wetlands and 157 linear feet of waterway. The project is located between the western right-of-way of SR 0220 and right-of-way of SR 2051 eastern approximately 3 miles north of Pennsdale.

The applicant proposes to increase habitat diversity in existing wetlands on the property and to create an additional 1.4 acres of wetland by constructing two low dikes and a large pothole. Dike and pothole construction will permanently affect 1.0 acre of PEM wetland, including 0.7 acre of reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea), and water level manipulation will seasonally influence another 1.75 acres of PEM wetland. Final wetland acreage on the property will be increased from 5.2 to 6.6 acres.
