Re: Permit Documentation for Wing Park Pool- Updated Proposal
Dear Monica: •-•
We have rcceive.d a great deal of useful information from O.F. 13usbach Engineers regarding the above
rnattcr, Based on this infomiation, wc have prepared this proposal to assist the City in obtaining the
appropriate permits to allow construction of the design, which Burbach has prepared. However, it may be
helpful if we review the permits, which will bc needed, the nature of the documentation and the probable
time frame for receipt of permits.
Permits Needed
The following permits will definitely bc needed for the project.
• Construction in Boodway (!DNR-OWR Part 708 Rules),
• Construction in floodplain (IDNR-OWR Part 700 Rules) (possible statewide or regional
permit),
• Section 404 pert-nit for removal of old bridges and construction of new bridges (we have assumed
that some work will be done inside the jonsdictional limits for abutments), and
• IEPA 401 certification and Pollution Prevention Plan certification.
Documentation Needed
The documentation needed to obtain the above permits includc die follong items.
• Existing Elgin Ordinance Chapter 21.10.050 (this cannot be waived and review of documentation
must be by the state (including supporting engineering calculations),
• Wetland delineation,
• Phase I archaeology,
• Phase I environmental audit,
• Threatened and endangered species consultation,
• Soil erosion and sediment control plan, and
• Joint permit application forms.
• 47'31 -':':c' 0•P.23

Ms. Monica Meyers

page 2 of 2
Earlier, V7t provided Bob Maim with highlighted copies of Elgin's ordinance (which embodies the IDNR
Part 708 rules) and additional guidance from the state on the permit review guidelines which will be
followed. We will use the existing FE_MAmodel for this wcrk as recommended by LDNR-OWR.
Archaeology and the environmental audit will be the City of Elgin's responsibility. We assumed the soil
erosion and sediment control documentation and the Pollution Prevention Plan will be by D.P. Burbach
Engineers.
Schedule
The 1DNR re-view will probably rake at least three months from time of permit submittal. The 404
permit will be about 45 days if nationwide permits axe deemed acceptable by the Corps. An individual 404
permit would'take at least four months. The first of the year is a reasonable goal to obtain the above
permits if we start immediately,
Proposal
Wt will prepare the above documentation relying on Elgin and Burbach for all data. Wc will make the
necessary engineering calculations,prepare the documents and coordinate with both the City and Burbach
if any revisions to plans seem necessary or desirable. However, our intent is to submit documentation to
obtain approval for only one plan. Additional calculations using the new Tyler Creek model are not
included in this proposal. No additional survey is included as we will rely explicitly on Burbach's data and
our earlier survey. Finally,if documentation fur an individual 404 permit is required it will be an extra.
Fees
Our fee for these services would be $9,500 on a time and materials basis at the attached rates and
conditions. If substantial changes are made to the site plan, additional tasks will be on time and material at
the attached rates and conditions. Also all responses to agency comments are not included and will be at
rime and materials. Attendance at any meetings will be at the City's sole direction and is not included in
the above fee and will be at time and materials.
Oc=t-jpga.c— (
We can beginthese tasks immediately and will complete it b-v August 31, 1998 unless changes are made to
the selected plan. We look forward to assisting the City on this project. If you have any questions or need
more information please
Sincerely,

TYPES OF PERMITS ISSUED BY THE
ILLINOIS DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES/
OFFICE OF WATER RESOURCES
The Illinois Department of Natural Resources, Office of Water Resources (DNR,OWR),
formerly the Illinois Department of Transportation, Division of Water Resources, has three
types of permits: Statewide, Regional and Formal Permits. Statewide and Regional permits
are "blanket type" permits that authorize many relatively minor projects. Formal permits are
used to authorize all other projects. The following are descriptions of the Statewide, Regional
and Formal permits.
STATEWIDE PERMITS
Twelve Statewide Permits have been issued to authorize various minor projects across the
state. However, the Statewide Permits are not applicable in designated floodways in Cook,
DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will Counties. Each Statewide Permit has general
conditions and unique special conditions. A completed application form and plans do not need
to be submitted to DNR, OWR for review. All projects that are built in accordance with the
terms and special conditions of a Statewide Permit are authorized by that Statewide Permit.
Authorization of a project under a Statewide Permit does not supersede nor relive the
permittee's responsibility to obtain other federal, state or local permits.
The Statewide Permits are as follows:
Statewide Perron No. 1 authorizes flood fringe construction on the lower Rock River in Rock
Island County. It is no longer applicable in Northeastern Illinois..
Statewide Permit No. 2 authorizes construction of bridge and culvert structures in rural areas
on streams that drain less than 25 square miles.
Statewide Permit No. 3 authorizes mooring facilities for barge fleeting purposes.
Statewide Permit No. 4 authorizes aerial utility crossings.
Statewide Permit No. 5 authorizes minor, non-commercial boat docks.
Statewide Permit No. 6 authorizes minor, non-obstructive construction activities, such as light
poles, sidewalks, and playground equipment. This permit authorizes work in the overbank
area only. Other minor activities may meet the intent of Statewide Permit No. 6 but plans of
the activity must be submitted to DNR, OWR for review and a determination. .
Statewide Perron No. 7 authorizes outfalls, including pipes and ditches.
Statewide Perri& No. 8 authorizes underground pipeline and utility crossings. There are
many streams that are exempt from Statewide Permit No. 3, such as the Illinois River,
Kankakee River, Fox River, Chicago River and the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal. Many
others are listed on the permit.
A-16
Stttewide Perron Na. 9 authorizes minor shoreline and streambank protection activities.
statewide Perron No. 10 authorizes accessory structures and additions to existing residential
buildings.
Stztewide Pernitt No. 11 authorizes minor maintenance dredging activities.
Statewide Pe/matt No. 12 authorizes State and County bridge and culvert replacement
structures.
Note: Remember, the Statewide Permits are not applicable in designated floodways in
Northeastern Illinois.
REGIONAL PERMITS
Three Regional Permits have been issued to authorize minor projects in designated floodways
in Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry and Will Counties. Regional Permits No. 1 and 2
were issued by the Illinois Department of Transportation, Division of Highways for minor
highway improvements and are not addressed in this handouL Regional Permit No. 3 was
issued by DNR, OWR to authorize other minor improvements. As with the Statewide Permits,
a completed application form and plans do not need to be submitted. All projects that meet the
terms and special conditions of Regional Permit No. 3 are authorized by DNR, OWR but does
not relieve the perrnittee of the responsibility to obtain other federal, state or local
I . authorizations.
Redional Permit No. 3 authorizes minor projects in Northeastern Illinois regulatory floodways
that have been designated by.the Department, Underground and overhead utilities, storm and
sanitary sewer outfalls, sidewalks, patios, athletic fields, playground equipment, and
streambank protection activities can be authorized under Regional Permit No. 3. It does not
authorize utility crossings on certain streams as noted in item (h) on page 2 of the regional
permit. Other minor projects not specifically listed are not authorized by Regional Permit No. 3
and must receive a formal permit.
FORMAL PERMIT
•
Formal permits are issued to authorize major projects and minor projects that cannot be
authorized by a Statewide or Regional Permit. A completed application form, plans and
usually calculations must be submitted to show that the project meets the applicable State
rules. Bridges, culvert crossings, pedestrian bridges, dams, levees, public flood control
projects, floodway and channel relocations, and major filling and regrading projects are
examples of projects that require a formal permit. Issuance of a 21 day public notice is
required for dams; projects in a public body of water, and projects in Northeastern Illinois that
change the regulatbry floodway boundary or flood profile.

GUIDELINES FOR A PERMIT
iP
REVIEW OF A DECK/GARAGE/SHED/POOL
PROPOSED IN 'A FLOODWAY OR FLOODPLAIN
lq
1. Delineate the floodway limit from the floodway map on the plat of
survey and determine the direction of flood flows .
2. Determine the conveyance shadows of existing structures in the
floodway on the subject and neighboring lots . To do this, draw flow
divergence lines at a 1: 1 ratio upstream and flow convergence lines at a
4 : 1 ratio downstream in relation to flood flow direction lines.
3. Determine if the proposed location will block 'flood flows.
11
(a) If the proposed structure can be located completely within a
conveyance shadow, flood flows will not be blocked.
(b) If the structure cannot be placed within a conveyance shadow then
11
conveyance (1 .466AR^ (2/3) /n) must be maintained for all hydraulic cross-
sections (perpendicular to flood flows) by
(i) elevating the structure above the BFE on stilts,
(ii) excavating,
(iii)relocating an existing structure in the same hydraulic
cross-section and/or
(iv) obtaining a LOMR to relocate the floodway.
(4 ) Ensure that compensatory storage is provided above and below
•
10-yr frequency flood elevation.
•
Notas:
•
NargIRMI Garages must be detached with electical
outlets elevated above the BFE.
' Pools require compensatory storage for
the water volume above the ground.
--• Fences are not permissible in a floodway
except for recreational fences parallel
to flood flows or for pools if they are
the .minimal size needed for safety (a
Flood 1 C1,14"-'-'4.
rlooduay Limit
fence is a solid wall' for conveyance •
consideration due to debris catchment) .
plain Boundary
In floodplains where no floodway is designated, use the same procedures
for the effective floodway region of the floodplain. In the six
1
counties of northeast Illinois, the effective floodway is usually the •
middle 90% area of the floodplain. IDNR/OWR must concur with an
engineer's determination of the BFE for floodplains which drain more
than one square mile for structures where a BFE is needed for permit
reviews (ie. a house, building addition, commercial building, parking
lots, road crossings, etc. ) .
Contact IDNR/OWR (formerly IDOT/DOWR) for clarification.
IGNR/CuR 11/95
A-18
When does IDNR/OWR need to review a project in a Delegated Community?
•
Floodplains where no floodway is defined: Applicants require IDNR/OWR review when
the drainage arca is greater than I square mile and a BFE needs to determined. Projects which
require a BFE determination include parking lots, habitable or commercial buildings, additions
which constitute substantial improvements and other projects where accurate flooding information
is needed. Remember that the floodplain on the FIS maps is usually only a flood-of-record as was
. known prior to the publishing of the USGS hydrologic atlases in the 1960's. Therefore, these flood
boundaries and approximate elevations are not sufficient for evaluating proposed projects where
accurate flooding information is important. •
•
Floodways: Applicants require IDNR/OWR's review and concurrence for a proposed change to
•
the BFE or the floodway limits. Note that if the map revision requires that floodway storage and
conveyance be relocated to facilitate development,then IDNR/OWR will require that the
•
community (a) concurs with the proposal and (b) either assumes the responsibility to operate and
maintain the modification or accepts the responsibility to undertake the operation and maintenance
if the primary party fails to do so. Operation and maintenance can r,st2il such things as repairing
erosion damage, removing sedimentation and clearing fallen trees and vegetation.
Dams: A dam is a structure which intentionally impounds wain or diverts flows. If there would
be a potential threat to property or life if the proposed structure were to fail, then a dam safety •
permit is required.
If there would be no potential threat to property or life if the structure were to fail and the drainage
area is less than one square mile(as is the case with most subdivision stormwater detention ponds), •
then a dam safety permit is not required if(a)the height of the dam is less than 6 R and (b)the
impoundment capacity is less than 50 acre-ft. Otherwise,the project may require a dam safety
permit.
The Village should inform the applicant that the review process for darn safety permits is time
consuming and that the required engineering may be costly. Therefore, the applicant may desire to
design the structure so that a darn safety permit is not required.
Public Bodies of Water: Projects in, over or adjacent to public bodies of water require
IDNR/OWR review. The public waters in Will County include the Kankakee River, the Des
Plaines River, the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal, the Illinois and Michigan Canal and those
waters which are connected to the main channel during normal stages.
Federal, State,County and Village Projects: These projects require IDNR/OWR review.
Flood Control Projects: The determination that a project is for flood control must be made by
IDNR/OWR
Bridge Hydraulics: Bridge and culvert hydraulics must receive IDNR/OWR concurrence.
Note: The Community should have the project information sent to IDNR/OWR after substantially
concurring with the project. QRNBJOWR IL

permits for the Wing Park Family Aquatic Center.
BACKGROUND
Hey and Associates has been working with Burbach Municipal and
Civil Engineers to review the current Wing Park Family Aquatic
Center Plans and provide recommendations to acquire approval
emk from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) and
the Army Corp of Engineers to construct the Wing Park Family
Aquatic Center in the flood plain.
Design changes, as recommended by Hey and Associates, have
been incorporated in the current Wing Park Family Aquatic
Center plans to raise buildings above the 100-year flood
level . Hey and Associates have stated that performing the
recommended modifications may be favorably considered for
permit approval through the IDNR and the Army Corp of Engi-
neers .
Hey and Associates will coordinate the permitting process with
the IDNR and the Army Corp of Engineers, as outlined in the
attached proposal, for the fee of $9, 500 . In the original
plan, the City was to coordinate the project permits . Howev-
er, due to the sensitive nature of the project, it would be to
the City' s best interest to utilize Hey and Associates ' exper-
tise in flood plain projects to assure the permitting for the
Wing Park Family Aquatic Center. Hey and Associates fee is
estimated on a time and materials basis.

Re: Permit Documentation for Wing Park Pool— Updated Proposal
Dear Monica:
We have received a great deal of useful information from D.F. Burbach Engineers regarding the above
matter. Based on this information, we have prepared this proposal to assist the City in obtaining the
appropriate permits to allow construction of the design, which Burbach has prepared. However, it may be
helpful if we review the permits, which will be needed, the nature of the documentation and the probable
time frame for receipt of permits.
( Permits Needed
The following permits will definitely be needed for the project.
• Construction in floodway(IDNR-ODGR Part 708 Ruks),
• Construction in floodplain (IDNR-OWR Part 700 Rules) (possible statewide or regional
permit),
• Section 404 permit for removal of old badges and construction of new bridges (we have assumed
that some work will be done inside the jurisdictional limits for abutments), and
• IEPA 401. certification and Pollution Prevention Plan certification.
Documentation Needed
The documentation needed to obtain the above permits includes the follo� ng ice.s.
• Existing Elgin Ordinance Chapter 21.10.050 (this cannot be waived and review of documentation
must be by the state (including supporting engineering calculations),
• Wetland delineation,
• Phase I archaeology,
• Phase I environmental audit,
• Threatened and endangered species consultation,
• Soil erosion and sediment control plan, and
• Joint permit application forms.

Earlier, we provided Bob Maim with highlighted copies of Elgin's ordinance (which embodies the IDNR
Part 708 rules) and additional guidance from the state on the permit review guidelines which will bc
followed. We will usc the existing FENT model for this work as zecol-nrricnded by IDNR-OWR.
Archaeolog and the environmental audit will be the City of Elgin's responsibility. We assumed the soil
erosion and sediment control documentation and the Pollution Prevention Plan will be by D.F. Burbach
Engineers.
Schedule
The 1DNR review will probably take at least three months from rime of permit submittal. The 404
permit will be about 45 days if nationwide permits arc deemed acceptable by the Corps. An individual 404
permit would take at least four months. The first of the year is a reasonable goal to obtain the above
permits if we start inamediately.
Proposal
We will prepare the above documentation relying on Elgin and Burbach for all data. We will make the
(Pik necessary engineering calculations,prepare the dociimer.ts and coordinate with both the City and'Burbach
if any revisions to plans scan necessary or desirable. However, our intent is to submit documentation Cr'
obtain approval for only one plan. Additional calculations using the new Tyler Creek model are not
included in this proposal. No additional surrey is included as we will rely explicitly on Burbach's data and
our earlier survey. Finally,if documentation for an individual 404 permit is required it will be an extra.
Fees
Our fee for these services would be $9,500 on a time and materials basis at the attached rates and
conditions. If substantial changes are made to the site plan, additional tasks will be on time and material at
the attached rates and conditions. Also all responses to agency comments arc not included arid will be at
time and materials. Attendance at any meetings will be at the City's sole direction and is not included in
the above fee and will be at time and materials.
We can begin these tasks immediately and will complete it by August 31, 1998 unless changes are made to
the selected plan. We lock forward to assisting the City on this project. If you have any questions or recd
more information please call.
Sincerely,
if

TYPES OF PERMITS ISSUED BY THE
ILLINOIS DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES/
OFFICE OF WATER RESOURCES
The Illinois Department of Natural Resources, Office of Water Resources (DNR,OWR),
111
formerly the Illinois Department of Transportation, Division of Water Resources, has three
types of permits: Statewide, Regional and Formal Permits. Statewide and Regional permits
are "blanket types permits that authorize many relatively minor projects. Formal permits are
used to authorize all other projects. The following are descriptions of the Statewide, Regional
and Formal permits.
STATEWIDE PERMITS
Twelve Statewide Permits have been issued to authorize various minor projects across the
state. However, the Statewide Permits are not applicable in designated floodways in Cook,
DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will Counties. Each Statewide Permit has general
conditions and unique special conditions. A completed application form and plans do not need
to be submitted to DNR, OWR for review. All projects that are built in accordance with the
terms and special conditions of a Statewide Permit are authorized by that Statewide Permit.
Authorization of a project under a Statewide Permit does not supersede nor relive the
permittee's responsibility to obtain other federal, state or local permits.
The Statewide Permits are as follows:
rStatewide Perron No. 1 authorizes flood fringe construction on the lower Rock River in Rock
Island County. It is no longer applicable in Northeastern Illinois.
Statewide Penutt No. 2 authorizes construction of bridge and culvert structures in rural areas
on streams that drain less than 25 square miles.
Statewide Permit No. 3 authorizes mooring facilities for barge fleeting purposes.
Statewide Permit No. 4 authorizes aerial utility crossings.
Statewide Permit No. 5 authorizes minor, non-commercial boat docks.
Statewide Permit No. 6 authorizes minor, non-obstructive construction activities, such as light
poles, sidewalks, and playground equipment. This permit authorizes work in the overbank
area only. Other minor activities may meet the intent of Statewide Permit No. 6 but plans of
the activity must be submitted to DNR, OWR for review and a determination. .
Statewide Perron No. 7 authorizes outfalls, including pipes and ditches.
Statewide Permit No. 8 authorizes underground pipeline and utility crossings. There are
many streams that are exempt from Statewide Permit No. 8, such as the Illinois River,
Kankakee River, Fox River, Chicago River and the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal. Many
others are listed on the permit.

•
Statewide Perratt No. 9 authorizes minor shoreline and streambank protection activities.
Statewide Penult No. 10 authorizes accessory structures and additions to existing residential
1r buildings.
Statewide Permit No. 11 authorizes minor maintenance dredging activities.
Statewide Permit No. 12 authorizes State and County bridge and culvert replacement
structures.
Note: Remember, the Statewide Permits are not applicable in designated floodways in
Northeastern Illinois.
REGIONAL PERMITS
Three Regional Permits have been issued to authorize minor projects in designated floodways
in Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry and Will Counties. Regional Permits No. 1 and 2
were issued by the Illinois Department of Transportation, Division of Highways for minor
highway improvements and are not addressed in this handout. Regional Permit No. 3 was
issued by DNR, OWR to authorize other minor improvements. As with the Statewide Permits,
a completed application form and plans do not need to be submitted. All projects that meet the
terms and special conditions of Regional Permit No. 3 are authorized by DNR, OWR but does
not relieve the permittee of the responsibility to obtain other federal, state or local
authorizations.
Regional Permit No. 3 authorizes minor projects in Northeastern Illinois regulatory floodways
ir that have been designated by.the Department. Underground and overhead utilities, storm and
sanitary sewer outfalls, sidewalks, patios, athletic fields, playground equipment, and
streambank protection activities can be authorized under Regional Permit No. 3. It does not
authorize utility crossings on certain streams as noted in item (h) on page 2 of the regional
permit. Other minor projects not specifically listed are not authorized by Regional Permit No. 3
and must receive a formal permit.
FORMAL PERMIT
Formal permits are issued to authorize major projects and minor projects that cannot be
authorized by a Statewide or Regional Permit. A completed application form, plans and
usually calculations must be submitted to show that the project meets the applicable State
rules. Bridges, culvert crossings, pedestrian bridges, dams, levees, public flood control
projects, floodway and channel relocations, and major filling and regrading projects are
examples of projects that require a formal permit. Issuance of a 21 day public notice is
required for dams, projects in a public body of water, and projects in Northeastern Illinois that
change the regulatory floodway boundary or flood profile.

GUIDELINES FOR A PERMIT
tom- REVIEW OF A DECK/GARAGE/SHED/POOL
. PROPOSED INA FLOODWAY OR FLOODPLAIN
1. Delineate the floodway limit from the floodway map on the plat of
survey and determine the direction of flood flows.
if
2. Determine the conveyance shadows of existing structures in the
floodway on the subject and neighboring lots. To do this, draw flow
10
divergence lines at a 1:1 ratio upstream and flow convergence lines at a
4:1 ratio downstream in relation to flood flow direction lines.
3. Determine if the proposed location will block flood flows.
10
(a) If the proposed structure can be located completely within a
conveyance shadow, flood flows will not be blocked.
(b) If the structure cannot be placed within a conveyance shadow then
conveyance (1.486ARA (2/3)/n) must be maintained for all hydraulic cross-
sections (perpendicular to flood flows) by
(i) elevating the structure above the BFE on stilts,
(ii) excavating,
(iii)relocating an existing structure in the same hydraulic
. cross-section and/or
(iv) obtaining a LOMR to relocate the floodway.
i0
(4) Ensure that compensatory storage is provided above and below
10-yr frequency flood elevation.
Notes: •
-11411111W!! Garages must be detached with electical
outlets elevated above the BFE.
Pools require compensatory storage for

F.,..:Zodplain Boundary
In floodplains where no floodway is designated, use the same procedures
for the effective floodway region of the floodplain. In the six
11
counties of northeast Illinois, the effective floodway is usually the
middle 90% area of the floodplain. IDNR/OWR must concur with an
engineer's determination of the BFE for floodplains which drain more
10
than one square mile for structures where a BFE is needed for permit
reviews (ie. a house, building addition, commercial building, parking
lots, road crossings, etc. ) .
Contact IDNR/OWR (formerly IDOT/DOWR) for clarification.
IDNR/CWR 11/9S

A-18 P
When does IDNRIOWR need to review a project in a Delegated Community?
Floodplains where no floodway is defined: Applicants require IDNR/OWR review when
the drainage area is greater than 1 square mile and a BFE needs to determined. Projects which
require a BFE determination include parking lots,habitable or commercial buildings, additions •
which constitute substantial improvements and other projects where accurate flooding information
is needed. Remember that the floodplain on the FIS maps is usually only a flood-of-record as was
. known prior to the publishing of the USGS hydrologic atlases in the 1960's. Therefore, these flood
boundaries and approximate elevations are not sufficient for evalnnring proposed projects where
accurate flooding information is important.
Floodways: Applicants require IDNR/OWR's review and concurrence for a proposed change to
the BFE or the floodway limits. Note that if the map revision requires that floodway storage and
conveyance be relocated to farilitate development,then IDNR/OWR will require that the
community(a) concurs with the proposal and (b)either assumes the responsibility to operate and •
•
maintain the modification or accepts the responsibility to undertake the operation and maintenance
if the primary party fails to do so. Operation and maintenance can entail such things as repairing
erosion damage, removing sedimentation and clearing fallen trees and vegetation.
Dams: A dam is a structure which intentionally impotrcie water or diverts flows. If there would
be a potential threat to property or life if the proposed structure were to fail,then a dam safety •
•
permit is required. •
If there would be no potential threat to property or life if the structure were to fail and the drainage
area is less than one square mile(as is the case with most subdivision storrnwater detention ponds), •
then a darn safety permit is not required if(a}the height of the dam is less than 6 ft.and(b)the
impoundment capacity is less than 50 acre-ft. Otherwise,the project may require a dam safety
•
permit.
The Village should inform the applicant that the review process for dam safety permits is time
consuming and that the required engineering may be costly. Therefore, the applicant may desire to
design the structure so that a dam safety permit is not required.
Public Bodies of Water: Projects in, over or adjacent to public bodies of water require
IDNR/OWR review. The public waters in Will County include the Kankakee River,the Des
Plaines River, the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal, the Illinois and Michigan Canal and those
waters which are connected to the main channel during normal stages.
Federal, State, County and Village Projects: These projects require IDNR/OWR review.
•
•
Flood Control Projects: The determination that a project is for flood control must be made by
IDNR/OWR
Bridge Hydraulics: Bridge and culvert hydraulics must receive IDNR/OWR concurrence. •
Note: The Community should have the project information sent to IDNR/OWR after substantially
concurring with the project. IDNR/OWR 11/95
