Section

8f. For all activities identified in 8e., describe the source and nature of the fill material, amount (in cubic yards) you will use, and how and where it will be placed into the waterbody.

If you have any activities that involve “filling-in” portions of waterbodies, describe the material you will use, including the type, source, and the amount of material (for example: three cubic yards of dirt from the upland staging area). Indicate where and how it will be placed in the waterbody (for example: fill placed on the western bank using a backhoe).

 

Definition(s):

·         Cubic Yards: A measure of volume calculated by measuring length by width by depth (one yard x one yard x one yard). One cubic yard = 27 cubic feet.

·         Fill Material: Any material that will change the bottom elevation of an aquatic area, wetland or waterbody.
