This site has been monitored for over 5 years. As such, the applicant has requested a determination for future actions regarding monitoring. A letter requesting corrective action was sent on August 23, 2007. A copy has been attached for your review. The letter addressed issues with the vegetation within the buffer, which is dominated by invasive species and noxious weeds, and it requested that the matter be corrected. The letter also requested that an As -Built drawing be submitted, which has been received. Finally, the letter requested that the Declaration of Restrictions and Covenants (DRC) be submitted. As of this date the DRC has not been received. This letter serves as notice that the members of the Technical Evaluation Panel have concluded that the goal of the replacement plan has not been achieved. In accordance with Wetland Conservation Act Rules, Section 8420.0610, the monitoring period for Albertville Crossing Phase II has been extended for five years, or until the following items have been addressed: • The Declaration of Restrictions and Covenants has been submitted. The invasive species and noxious weeds that dominate the buffer have been eradicated and a native vegetation community has been established.
