All pipeline crossings shall be placed beneath streambeds and wetlands so there will be a minimum of 3 feet of cover between the top of the pipe and the lowest point in the streambed or wetland. Trench plugs or clay dikes shall be used at every waterway and wetland crossing to ensure the existing hydrology is not altered.
