By this letter you are whereby ordered to cease any further tree removal, provide a ecologic evaluation of the watercourse and re-plant vegetation to provide shade and soil stabilization. You are so ordered based on the following facts: 1. The Inland Wetlands Agency/Conservation Commission has the authority and the responsibility to regulate inland wetlands and watercourses in the Town of South Windsor under sections 22a-36 through 22a-45 of the Connecticut General Statutes (CGS)and the South Windsor Inland Wetland, Watercourses, and Conservation Regulations. 2. On March 22,2018 it was brought to my attention that all trees and vegetation had been removed from the southern bank of the watercourse along the full length of your property(see attached pictures). The current condition provides an unstable condition that will allow soil from the bank to enter into the watercourse, increasing the sediment load along the wetland system. The removal of the existing shade trees will result in elevated water temperatures. This situation is reasonably likely to cause a degradation in the function of the wetland and impact wetland dependent plant and animal species. This notice of violation is issued in accordance with Section 22a-44, CGS and Section XV of the South Windsor Inland Wetlands, Watercourses, and Conservation Regulations. I am requiring you to cease any further vegetation clearing. Install erosion controls along top of the stream hank and provide a vegetation restoration plan to this office, and restore/replace the vegetation along the top of the streamhank: A show cause hearing will be held at the Inland Wetland/Conservation Commission meeting of April 18, 2018 to provide you an opportunity to show why this order must not remain in effect. Questions on this matter can be addressed to this office at(860) 644-2511 X229. Sincerely. Jeffrey H. Folger Environmental Planner/Conservation Officer cc IWA/CC Director of Planning./ Town Attorney Town Engineer 11 � ► - - i 1 � �'Y,���'P"� �jj�' i, ,��;' ����".�,�IY �q A.11i ,�"4/�4`y�p���' ,''�+lt�`rs.9,,'' 't< �°"''`� a'`v ��h 1i.6'�' � � N ,�.w.a.c�l�r���f i, r� v ��,r�-, ,� ��!� Wit, � r� 1 � . : � �� `� r ..r,- � ,w �; �w �. .� ��.� C ,, t .,.
