Note that the address to which <br /> the check will go is: <br /> FEMA :'Fee-Charge System Administrator <br /> PO Boi'c 22787 <br /> Alexandria, VA 22304 <br /> T ~ not the address on the form. As you and I discussed, I'll send the check to them - I just wanted to make sure you have the <br /> c ct address for your records. <br /> Thanks for your help. <br /> Kevin x6018 <br /> -----Original Message----- <br /> From; Price, Krey Tt, Inc.

The guy doing our review is Kevin Doyle out of Michael Baker's <br /> Denver office. I asked him about the reasoning behind the fee request and he said it didn't look like a flood control project to him. <br /> (I guess that's a bit of a compliment, since other Corps restoration projects that just sailed right through on the exemptions must <br /> have looked like flood contro( projects overall.) Anyway, I mentioned to him that in addition to the restoration efforts, we are <br /> replacing an undersized culvert with a larger one (the Goodpasture Island Road culvert) that reduces flood elevations. He said <br /> <br /> you can go through an appeals process and try to argue that your project has flood control benefits (the current design does have <br /> <br /> flood control benefits around Ponds D and E as a result of the culvert replacement, but in the rest of the project, the additional <br /> <br /> conveyance is balanced out by the placement of fill for the riparian buffers, making the flood control benefits insignificant). It could <br /> <br /> g~"~er way, but unfortunately, they wouldn't initiate the full review until the appeals process is done, and that can delay things <br /> s I weeks or more. Sorry for all the confusion on this issue. Anyway, if the funds are available, you may want to just initiate <br /> the payment to avoid potential delays in the review, but I wanted to run the options by you. If you opt with paying the fee, it should <br /> be accompanied by the Payment Information Form (which I've attached). Use the address from the February 9 FEMA letter for <br /> mailing, though; looks like the one on the forms is outdated. Here's the correct one: <br /> 3/24J2005 <br /> <br />
