CASE NO. 13-1273-GA-BLN
LETTER OF NOTIFICATION
PIR 256 – RACCOON ROAD PHASE 3
HP DISTRIBUTION LINE REPLACEMENT (L#4999)
The following information is being provided in accordance with the procedures delineated in
Ohio Administrative Code Section 4906-11-01: Letter of Notification Requirements of the Rules
and Regulation of the Ohio Power Siting Board.
4906-11-01(B) GENERAL INFORMATION
4906-11-01(B)(1)(a): Name and Reference Number
The applicant for the proposed project is the Dominion East Ohio Gas Company
(“DEO”). The name of the project is PIR 256 Raccoon Road Phase 3. The internal SAP
project number is P400000695.
4906-11-01(B)(1)(b): Brief Description of Project
Dominion East Ohio Gas proposes to replace approximately 7,700 feet of an
existing 12-inch high pressure distribution (“HP”) natural gas bare steel pipeline and an
8-inch distribution line with 20-inch coated steel pipe located in Austintown Township,
Mahoning County, Ohio. This construction project will run in road right-of-way
(“ROW”) and DEO easements along Raccoon Road between Mahoning Avenue and Four
Mile Run Road and in DEO off road easements from Four Mile Run Road to 1,050 feet
north of Four Mile Run Road.
This project is the last of five replacement projects that have been made along
Raccoon Road, Cases Nos. 10-145-GA-BLN, 10-146-GA-BLN, 10-147-GA-BLN, and
11-1155-GA-BLN.
Project overview map is included as Attachment A.
4906-11-01(B)(1)(c): Why the Project Meets the Requirements for a Letter of
Notification
The new pipeline replacement will be approximately 1.46 miles in length. Thus
this project qualifies as a Letter of Notification because it fits the criteria of OAC Rule
4906-1-01, Appendix B (3) because:
1
6393758V1
(a) the new line will replace an existing line with a like facility; and
(b) the new line will be greater than one mile but not greater than five miles in
length.
The replaced pipeline would have the equivalent rating and operating
characteristics of the two existing lines, the 8-inch and the 12-inch.
4906-11-01(B)(2):
Name and Reference Number
The replacement of the existing 12-inch bare steel, high-pressure, distribution
mainline (along with a non-jurisdictional 8-inch pipeline) with the proposed 20-inch high
pressure coated steel mainline is a pipeline replacement project performed under DEO’s
Pipeline Infrastructure Replacement (PIR) Program, PIR # 256, and will be eligible for
recovery. The internal DEO project number is SAP #P00000695.
4906-11-01(B)(3):
Location of the Project
Attachment A illustrates the location of existing distribution pipeline (L#4999).
The new 20-inch replacement pipeline segments shall be installed within existing DEO
easements and road right-of-way (ROW).
4906-11-01(B)(4):
Alternatives Considered
This project will involve replacing an older, smaller pipeline by removing it and
placing the new pipeline in the same location as the existing one. Replacing the old
pipeline in the same location is the best alternative because any other alternative would
have more environmental impacts, would involve obtaining new easements, and would
be far more expensive. This replacement project in the same easement as the existing
pipeline will also minimize any potential conflicts with existing and proposed future land
uses.
2
6393758V1
4906-11-01(B)(5):
Anticipated Construction Schedule and Proposed In-Service
Date
The construction of the replacement pipeline may begin as early as June 24, 2013.
DEO plans to place the line in-service by September 30, 2013. The delay in filing was
caused by easement issues that required county involvement and a zoning issue with
respect to the replacement valve cluster.
4906-11-01(B)(6):
Project Area Map and Directions
Attachment A shows a high-level view of the project and, as defined within the
construction plans (Attachment B) the entire length of the proposed route will be located
within existing DEO easements and road ROW.
Travel to the site from Columbus can be accomplished by taking Interstate 71
north to exit 209A, Interstate 76 east. Take Interstate 76 east to merge with Interstate 80
east and continue on Interstate 80 east. Take exit 224A to Ohio 11 south. Take exit 39
on Ohio 11 to Mahoning Avenue. Turn left on Mahoning Avenue. Stay on Mahoning
Avenue for 1.2 miles. Turn left on Raccoon Road. Project starts on left (west) side of
Raccoon Road and heads north to Four Mile Run Road. The project continues north of
Four Mile Run Road through DEO off road easements.
4906-11-01(B)(7):
Property Owner List
DEO will not be required to obtain new land rights for the proposed replacement
project as the installation will be placed within existing road ROW and DEO easements.
The list of existing properties with DEO specific easements has been provided as
Attachment E.

4906-11-01(C) TECHNICAL FEATURES OF THE PROJECT
4906-11-01(C)(1):
Operating Characteristics, Required Structures, and Right-ofWay and/or Land Requirements
Pipeline MAOP: The replaced pipeline will maintain the same pressure of the
existing pipeline which has an MAOP of 198 psig.
Pipe Material: The new pipeline will be 20-inch, .375w, X42, Fusion Bond
Epoxy coated pipe and will be cathodically protected with anodes.
Structures: No additional structures will be required for the replaced pipeline.
An above ground valve cluster will be installed at the southern end of the project at
Raccoon Station, within the property limits of the DEO owned parcel. Fencing will be
installed around the valve cluster. This will replace the existing below ground valve
installation.
Right-of-Way (ROW) and/or Land Requirement:
Existing DEO easements and road ROW will be utilized for the pipeline location
and construction activities and will be coordinated with the affected landowners.

4906-11-01(E) ENVIRONMENTAL DATA
Davey conducted an ecological survey of the study corridor on October 2, 2012.
This survey included an evaluation of potential habitat for species of concern likely to be
found within the project vicinity, wetland delineation, and an evaluation of streams
within 100 feet of the project route. See Attachment I-1 for the Environmental
Compliance Summary. The results of the study follow:
4906-11-01(E)(1):
Species of Concern
The ecological field survey by Davey and their follow-up consultation with the
ODNR identified the potential for four (4) state or federal endangered species to be
present in the project area. Due to the lack of impact to the habitats and the
characteristics of these endangered species, the ODNR concluded the project is not likely
to impact the species in question. DEO did remove some of the potential roost trees prior
to April 1, 2013 following the seasonal tree clearing guidelines due to their proximity to
the construction zone. See Attachment I-1.
4906-11-01(E)(2):
Areas of Ecological Concern
Davey made an ecological assessment during their October 2012 site visit to
evaluate the project area for the presence of streams, wetlands and any other sensitive
resources. The consultant identified six (6) wetlands and five (5) streams in the project
area.
For all streams and wetlands to be crossed by construction activity, DEO and its
contractors will follow the requirements set forth by the USACE, OEPA and the
MSWCD. DEO will also follow standard best management practices identified in the
SWPPP.
4906-11-01(E)(3):
6393758V1
4054829v1
Any Known Unusual Conditions Resulting in Significant
Environmental, Social, Health, or Safety Impacts
8
There are no known unusual conditions resulting in significant environmental,
social, health, or safety impacts. The ODNR Division of Geological Survey has indicated
that the potential for abandoned underground mines and abandoned oil and gas wells
exist at the project site. A further review with ODNR personnel on May 24, 2013,
indicated that the nearest abandoned mine is over 1,000 feet from the project boundaries.
See Ohio Mines map for locations (Attachment I-2).
Davey confirmed that there are no known unusual conditions resulting in
significant environmental impacts (Attachment I-1). Because this project is located in an
area where there are other infrastructure facilities similar to the proposed new line, other
than potential health and safety issues associated with construction which will be
minimized with the best practices during construction, there are no additional health,
social or safety impacts that will exist as a result of this project.
A Temporary Traffic Control Plan has been created for this project. DEO will
utilize personnel from Area Wide Protective, a company that prepared the traffic control
plan and who will supply the flaggers during construction, and local law enforcement
officers as needed during the construction planned along road ROW (Attachment J).

Subject: Notification of Natural Gas Line Replacement in Dominion (DEO) Right-of-Way or in
the Public Right-of-Way
Dear Property Owner:
Dominion East Ohio (DEO) is the owner of an easement/permit on or near your property,
pursuant to and within which it operates and maintains a natural gas pipeline. Although the
existing pipeline is safe, DEO must replace it to comply with recently enacted U.S. Department of
Transportation’s 192 Pipeline Integrity Regulations.
Please be assured that during this project, all of DEO’s Standard Safety and Operating Procedures
and all applicable federal, state and local laws, regulations and ordinances will be fully adhered
to.
Right-of-Way Project Timeline
Before pipeline replacement begins, DEO or its contractor must clear the portion of its easement
along its pipeline. This right-of-way, granted by the recorded easement or permit, provides the
area necessary for the large equipment and materials used in the laying, maintaining and
operating of the pipeline. Pipeline construction will begin June 2013 and continue through
September 2013. DEO personnel or its contractor has begun preliminary work on this project.
Access to DEO’s pipeline may be required for the following reasons:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Surveying and staking the pipeline route
Right of way site preparation
Any other activity as required by the project
Actual pipeline replacement will be constructed on the west side of Raccoon Road.
Private Access to your Property
Private access to your property will be maintained open at all times where feasible. Due to
construction activity, some access may be temporarily closed but will be reopened as quickly as
possible. In that case, you will be notified in advance. Any public road closures will be
communicated with the local police, fire and emergency agencies.
If you have tenants occupying this parcel, please advise them of this pipeline replacement project.
Should you have any questions concerning this pipeline replacement project, please contact
Dominion East Ohio’s Land Services Department at 330-664-2626.
Sincerely,
DOMINION EAST OHIO

RE: The East Ohio Gas Company – Pipeline Infrastructure Replacement Program
Section 106 Desktop Review
PIR 256 – Raccoon Road Phase III
Dear Mr. Eastridge:
To document compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act, an evaluation of the Pipeline Infrastructure Replacement (PIR)
project, PIR 256 – Raccoon Road Phase III was conducted to determine if any
effects to cultural resources can be anticipated as a result of the pipeline
replacement in this area. In order to determine if documented historic sites exist
within the project area, a Section 106 Desktop Review of the project area was
performed. The desktop review entails a search of the Ohio Historical Preservation
Office (OHPO) data records for National Register Listed Properties, Archaeological
Inventory Properties, Historic Inventory Properties, National Register Listed
Districts, and Phase 1, 2, and 3 Survey Areas. The area reviewed includes the
seventy-foot easement on the north end of the project and the road right-of-way
(ROW) and areas adjacent to the ROW on the south end of PIR 256 – Raccoon Road
Phase III. Following is a discussion of this evaluation. Please refer to Attachment A
for OHPO maps regarding this search and Attachment B for representative
photographs of the project area. The OHPO maps are represented on U.S.
Geological Service topographic map, Youngstown quadrangle, and on a road map.
PROJECT PURPOSE AND LOCATION
EOG is proposing to replace approximately 7,600 feet of natural gas pipeline (20-inch
diameter) under the PIR Program. The purpose of the program is to replace existing
bare steel pipe to ensure the safety and reliability of pipeline operations.
PIR 256 – Raccoon Road Phase III is located in Austintown, Mahoning County,
within existing EOG easements. The northern portion of the project is a seventy-foot
wide easement extending down to North Four Mile Run Road and to North Raccoon
Road where the easement extends from the center line of the road, 60-feet to the west
and 30-feet to the east.

PROJECT AREA DESCRIPTION
The project area was surveyed on October 2, 2012. This survey was performed to collect
information on potential wetlands, streams, and protected species habitat. The project area is
located within residential, commercial, rural, and recreational areas with land covers of mowed
field, lawn trees, pavement, and forest.
To evaluate the project area for potential cultural resources, the project area was reviewed for
physical features that may indicate historic structures. No rock outcrops, rock overhangs, historic
foundations, or other features were observed within the project area that would indicate significant
historic or prehistoric cultural use of the area. See representative photographs of the project area in
Attachment B.
In order to determine if documented historic sites exist within and adjacent to the project area, a
Section 106 Desktop Review was performed. No National Register Llisted Properties,
Archaeological Inventory Properties, or National Register Listed Districts were identified within
or adjacent to the pipeline project area by the desktop review.
However, one historic structure, one Phase 1 Survey Area, and three cemeteries were identified
within or adjacent to the proposed pipeline replacement project area.
The Phase 1 Survey Area recorded within and extending beyond the project area was performed
for the East Ohio Gas Company for a pipeline replacement project. No cultural material was
recovered within the survey area and the project will have no adverse effects on prehistoric or
historic archaeological resources and will not impact any nearby historic properties or cemeteries.
The locations of these historic features are indicated on the OHPO maps located in Attachment A.
Representative photographs of these features are included in Attachment B. Identification of these
cultural resources are listed in Attachment C.
SUMMARY
Because of previous ground disturbance, OHPO does not require a formal Section 106
consultation for pipeline replacement projects unless historic properties will be impacted by the
project. Three cemeteries, one Historic Inventory Property, and one Phase 1 Survey Area are
located adjacent to proposed pipeline project area; however, these historic features will be
avoided. The degree of disturbance and the absence of identified cultural resources within the
project area indicate that this project does not have the potential to contain intact archaeological
resources eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. Therefore, the
replacement of pipeline for PIR 256 – Raccoon Road Phase III will not have an adverse effect on
cultural resources.

PROJECT OVERVIEW
1.1
Introduction
The contents of this document and the accompanying attachments comprise the Storm
Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) for a natural gas pipeline replacement project
performed under the East Ohio Gas Company’s (EOG) Pipeline Infrastructure
Replacement (PIR) Program. This Program’s effort consists of replacing approximately
4,000 miles of discontinuous sections of steel pipeline with new pipeline and may
continue for 20 years or more. This is a proactive, multi-year program for repairing and
maintaining EOG-owned transmission, distribution, and storage pipelines throughout
Ohio. The work to be conducted will focus on specific individual pipeline segments,
selected for replacement during any given year based on several factors, including pipe
viability, location, and potential impacts to protected natural resources.
The purpose of this SWPPP is to present procedures that will be followed during
installation of this pipeline to minimize adverse environmental impacts from storm water
runoff and sediment pollution. This document was prepared in accordance with the
requirements of the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency NPDES General Permit No.
OHC000003 (published requirements effective April 2008 through April 20, 2013).
1.2
Project Description
The following segments are proposed for construction/replacement:
PIR 256 – This project involves the replacement of approximately 7,600 feet of high
pressure, bare steel pipeline (replaced with twenty-inch diameter) to ensure the safety and
reliability of pipeline operations for the PIR 256 pipeline located in Mahoning County.
The northern portion of the project area of PIR 256 is located within a 70-foot wide
easement extending down to North Four Mile Run Road. The remainder of project
activities will occur within existing EOG easements, extending south along North Four
Mile Run Road and North Raccoon Road south to Norquest Road. This includes 60 feet
west and 30 feet east from the center line of these roads. Three (3) streams and five (5)
wetlands will be crossed using open trench cut technology during the pipeline
replacement activities. A total of approximately 7.5 acres of ground disturbance is
anticipated. These pipeline segments are shown on a Youngstown, Ohio USGS 7.5minute topographic map, excerpt included in Appendix A-1.
1.3
Description of Construction Activities and Areas Disturbed
Some pipeline replacement will involve “lift-and-lay” construction (replacement in place)
while some projects require offsetting the new pipeline within the northern portion of the
70-foot-wide easement or 30 feet from center line of the east side of road and is 60 feet
from the center line of the west side of the road. Site location maps showing the pipeline
segment(s) to be replaced are provided in Appendix A-1.
Project Overview  1
All pipeline replacements and construction activities will occur within existing EOG
easements. The construction activities will require soil disturbance within the
construction corridor to accommodate areas for the trench excavation, side-cast spoil,
temporary storage of the new and removed pipe, and equipment/vehicular traffic. Extra
workspaces may be required outside but adjacent to this construction corridor in certain
areas, to accommodate additional workspace needs associated with crossing features such
as waterbodies, roads, and railroads
Similarly, extra workspaces may also be required for crossing certain features including
agricultural areas (to allow space for topsoil segregation) and side slope areas (to allow
grading for safety). Off-site areas have been designated for pipe, equipment, and
materials storage. All work shall be performed within these authorized limits of
disturbance.
Typically, the trench will be excavated to facilitate removal of the old pipeline and to
allow 3 to 5 feet of cover over the new pipeline after installation and backfilling. The
backfill material that will be returned to the trench will consist of the same material
removed from the trench, to the extent practicable. Excess soil will be spread onsite but
outside of and away from agricultural areas, wetlands, floodplains, streams, drainage
ways, or other environmentally sensitive areas. Following pipeline installation, all
disturbed areas will be returned to their original slope and contour, stabilized, and seeded.
All vegetated areas that undergo project-related soil disturbance will be seeded and revegetated to provide a permanent herbaceous cover to stabilize the soils, and temporary
erosion and sediment controls will be maintained until disturbed areas are stabilized.
1.4
New Impervious Areas and Runoff Coefficients
New impervious surfaces will not be created. The majority of areas that will be affected
consist of existing, vegetated pipeline ROW. All areas disturbed by the project will be
restored to their preconstruction material, condition, and contours.
Accordingly, post-construction runoff will remain essentially the same as preconstruction runoff. Therefore, the calculation of runoff coefficients for pre-construction
vs. post-construction conditions is not warranted or applicable to this linear project.
1.5
Delineation of Drainage Watersheds
Delineation of drainage watersheds traversed is not warranted or applicable for this
project because the temporary storm water control measures that will be used during
construction are adaptable to any size watershed based on field conditions and
professional judgment. No permanent storm water management systems will be
developed in conjunction with this project. No permanent filling or relocation of
wetlands or waterbodies is planned, and no permanent bridges or culverts are planned.
Furthermore, there will be no permanent changes in grade, ground surface material, or
waterway drainage or wetland contours, as all areas disturbed by the project will be
restored to their preconstruction condition.
1.6
Site Conditions
1.6.1 Soils
The soils in the project area are depicted and described by name on the map in Appendix
A-2.
Soils disturbed during trench excavation for the installation of the pipeline will be replaced
within the trench once work activities are complete. Any excess spoil will be redistributed
within the project area. All disturbed areas will then be re-vegetated and stabilized.
1.6.2 Prior Land Uses
The existing land use along the road ROW within the project area consists of grass, trees
and pavement with scrub-shrub conditions extending further west beyond the road ROW.
In the existing pipeline easement, north of Four Mile Run, land use consists of regularly
mowed cover with areas of woods along the edges of the maintained portion of the
corridor. These areas are controlled by EOG via legal easements. Extra workspace areas
situated adjacent to the ROW and easement corridor may consist of open, agricultural,
forested, residential, or commercial/industrial areas.
EOG negotiates with the
landowners and compensates them as appropriate to gain permission to use these areas.
1.6.3 Surface Waters and Wetlands in Project Area
A waterbody crossing table listing all surface waters that will be traversed by the project
is provided in Appendix A-3. Maps showing the locations of these surface waters are
provided in Appendix A-5. Construction methods for crossing waterbodies are described
in Section 2.2.1 of this plan. Typical drawings depicting the crossing methods are
provided in Appendix B.
A wetland crossing table listing all wetlands that will be traversed by the project
(including distance and acreage affected) is provided in Appendix A-4. Maps showing
the locations of and aerial extent of these wetlands are provided in Appendix A-5.
Construction methods for crossing wetlands are described in Section 2.2.2 of this plan.
Typical drawings depicting the crossing methods are provided in Appendix B.
As a contingency for waterbody and wetland crossings that are bored, an HDD Frac-Out
Contingency Plan is provided in Appendix A-6.
1.6.4 Discharges to Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems
During the course of this pipeline replacement program involving the replacement of
approximately 4,000 miles of pipeline over the course of 20 to 25 years, it is possible that
some segments of the project will be located within communities that have regulated
municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4s). However, no permanent storm water
management systems will be developed as part of this pipeline replacement project; all
areas will be revegetated and restored to their preconstruction grade. In addition, diligent
and proper implementation of this SWPPP should result in the control and retention of
construction-related soils and sediments onsite, without the need to use established
municipal storm water systems. Therefore, no discharges to MS4 systems are planned or
anticipated.
1.6.5 Notes Addressing Site Mapping Requirements
The maps in Appendix A (including A-1, A-2, and A-5) and the narrative of this SWPPP

CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES
This section describes the environmental construction techniques that EOG and its
contractors will use to perform the proposed pipeline replacement activities. Best
Management Practices (BMPs) will be implemented throughout construction to minimize
soil erosion and the transport of sediments from the construction area, and to protect
surface waters and wetlands located in and adjacent to the project areas. Detail drawings
of specific BMPs are included in Appendices B and C.
2.1
Sequence of Construction Activities
The following general construction sequence provides an overview of the construction
process. Wherever practical, construction activities will occur simultaneously and some
steps may not occur in the exact order in which they are listed below.

Note: Steps 20 and 21 should be installed in the order that best suits site and scheduling
conditions.
2.2
Timing of Certain Construction Activities
The special timing considerations that apply to construction activities and implementation
of BMPs are described below.
2.2.1 Temporary Stabilization/Sediment Control
Sediment controls such as filter fabric fence (see Detail No. C-1) and filter socks (see
Detail No. C-2) will be installed before initial ground disturbance, or immediately
following ground disturbance if the nature of the disturbance (e.g., grading) would affect
the stability of pre-installed sediment controls.
Disturbed areas must be stabilized (i.e., using vegetative or structural soil cover to control
erosion, such as temporary or permanent seed & mulch) during construction as specified
in Table 1.
Table 1. Temporary Stabilization Timeframes
Area Requiring Temporary Stabilization
Disturbed areas within 50 ft of a Surface Water
of the State and before final grade
Timeframe to Apply Erosion
Controls
Within 2 days of the most recent
disturbance if the area will remain idle
for > 21 days
Within 7 days of the most recent
disturbance in the area
For all construction areas, disturbed areas that
will be idle for > 21 days but < 1 year, and not
within 50 ft of a Surface Water of the State
Disturbed areas that will be idle over the winter Prior to onset of winter weather
2.2.2 Permanent Stabilization
Following completion of construction activities, disturbed areas must be permanently
stabilized (i.e., seeded, mulched, and fertilized) as specified in Table 2.
Table 2. Permanent Stabilization Timeframes
Area Requiring Permanent Stabilization
Timeframe to Apply Erosion Controls
Any areas that will lie dormant for one year or Within seven days of the most recent
more
disturbance
Any areas within 50 feet from a surface water Within two days of reaching final grade
of the State and at final grade
Any other areas at final grade
Within seven days of reaching final
grade within that area
2.2.3
Timing of Waterbody Crossings
In-stream work will be scheduled to avoid high stream flow conditions, such as
immediately following heavy periods of rain, to achieve a dry or low flow condition. The
total length of excavated trench open at the stream crossing at any one time will not be
greater that the total length of pipeline that can be placed in the trench and backfilled in
one working day. Equipment associated with isolation crossing methods (i.e., sand bag
dams, flume pipe, pumps, etc) should not be left in the stream overnight. Every effort will
be made to cross streams 10 feet in (bottom) width or less, including the trench
backfilling, in one working day. Stream banks and the areas 50 feet from the top of each
stream bank will be stabilized within 72 hours from the beginning of the stream crossing.
3.0
EROSION AND SEDIMENTATION CONTROL
Project construction activities (e.g., mowing/clearing, grading, trench excavation, spoil
storage, backfilling, and restoration) will expose bare soils and increase the potential for
erosion and sedimentation. Through adherence to this SWPPP, EOG’s objective is to
minimize the potential for soil erosion and sedimentation during construction, and to
effectively restore and stabilize the ROW and other disturbed areas when construction is
completed.
In general, the measures in this plan are designed to minimize erosion and sedimentation
by:
 limiting construction work to only the approved areas;






minimizing the quantity and duration of soil exposure;
protecting critical areas during construction by reducing the velocity of and
redirecting runoff;
installing and maintaining erosion and sediment control measures in
appropriate locations;
conducting in-stream activities during low-flow periods to the extent
practicable;
limiting the duration of in-stream activities;

using specialized construction and restoration techniques for wetland and
waterbody crossings;
implementing spill prevention and control measures;

establishing vegetation as soon as possible following final grading; and,

inspecting the ROW and other disturbed areas and maintaining erosion and
sediment controls as necessary until final stabilization is achieved.
3.1
Inspection and Maintenance
A qualified environmental inspector will inspect all BMPs at least once every 7 days, and
within 24 hours of a 0.5-inch or greater rainfall within a 24-hour period. The inspector
will evaluate whether measures to prevent erosion are adequate and properly
implemented or whether additional control measures are required. The inspector will
identify and document specific areas that may be contributing to storm water discharges
associated with construction activities; and recommend maintenance, supplementation, or
replacement of BMPs. All temporary and permanent control practices will be maintained
and repaired as needed. A sample inspection report form is shown in Detail C-11.
Specifically, disturbed areas and areas used for storage of materials that are exposed to
precipitation will be inspected for evidence of, or the potential for, pollutants to enter a
surface waterbody, wetland, or existing drainage system. Erosion and sediment control
measures will be inspected to determine their effectiveness in retaining soils and
sediments. Locations where vehicles enter or exit the site will be inspected to ensure
soils are not tracked off-site onto public roadways. Problematic erosion areas will be
corrected by EOG in a timely manner, or within 3 days in accordance with the NPDES
General Permit.
The erosion and sediment control measures will continue to be monitored and maintained
until all disturbed areas are stabilized.
The site log book and inspection report forms shall be maintained at the construction site
during active construction and be made available to permitting authorities upon request.
Prior to filing of the Notice of Termination or the end of permit term (such as during the
first growing season following project completion), a project environmental inspector or
other qualified professional will perform a final site inspection. The qualified
professional shall certify that the site has undergone final stabilization using either
vegetative or structural stabilization methods and that all temporary erosion and sediment
controls (such as silt fencing) not needed for long-term erosion control have been
removed.
3.2
Temporary Sediment Barriers
Temporary sediment barriers, such as filter fabric fences, filter socks, and waterbars, shall
be placed to intercept runoff from the construction site to prevent silt from entering
watercourses, municipal storm sewers, road surfaces, off-ROW areas, and other sensitive
areas. This section addresses temporary sediment barriers for general ROW areas. The
use of sediment barriers at waterbody and wetland crossings is addressed in Sections 3.3
and 3.4.
General notes on installation and maintenance of temporary sediment barriers in specific
areas are provided in the following subsections, based on the features/areas involved.
These areas include: general ROW areas, hillsides, soil stockpile areas, road crossings,
and trench dewatering areas. Detail drawings are provided in Appendices B and C.
3.2.1 General Right-of-Way Areas
A perimeter sediment control device (i.e. filter fabric fence or filter sock) will be placed
downgradient of pipeline construction activities and staging areas, where effective and
required to protect adjacent undisturbed wetlands and other water resources, road
surfaces, and residential properties from sediment transported by sheet flow runoff.
Installation will be in accordance with the details depicted in Detail C-1 “Filter Fabric
Fence Detail” and Detail C-2 “Filter Sock Detail”. Sediment will be removed when
accumulations reach 1/2 the above ground height of the fence. Perimeter sediment control
devices that have been undermined or topped should be immediately repaired.
3.2.2 Hillside Pipeline Construction
For pipeline construction parallel to the gradient of a hill (uphill/downhill) areas, where
the slope is greater than 1%, EOG will consider installing water bars or other suitable
sediment barrier across the ROW if runoff has the potential to adversely affect a
waterbody or adjacent property (see Detail C-4). Recommended spacing for water bars
is listed in Table 3. They should be installed to effectively divert downhill runoff to well
vegetated areas adjacent to the ROW, thereby preventing the occurrence of concentrated
and erosive flows directly down the disturbed hillside area.

For pipeline construction perpendicular to the gradient of a hill (sidehill areas), where the
slope is greater than 1%, a perimeter sediment control device shall be installed to protect
adjacent water resources, road surfaces, and residential properties from sediment
transported by sheet flow runoff. Both ends of the barrier will be extended at least 8 feet
up slope at 45 degrees to the main barrier alignment.
3.2.3 Soil Stockpiles
A perimeter sediment control device will be installed adjacent to spoil stockpiles to
prevent sedimentation into streams and other surface waters. Refer to Details C-1 and C2 for installation details.
Stockpiles will be placed at existing level grade with both ends of the barrier extending at
least 8 feet up slope at 45 degrees to the main barrier alignment. Sediment will be
removed when accumulations reach 1/3 the aboveground height of the barrier.
3.2.4 Road Crossings
The types and locations of control measures needed at roadway crossings will depend
upon the slope of the land and the type of roadway drainage systems present at that
location. Upslope runoff will be diverted around the work area by use of diversion
channel or waterbars. For this project, an upslope diversion is proposed at the road
crossing of North Four Mile Run Road because of the terrain at the road crossing.
Sediment barriers will be located down slope of trench or boring pit storage piles. Such
storage piles will not be located in any roadway swale or ditch. Runoff from existing
roadway culverts, storm sewers, swales, and ditches will be safely conveyed over any
open trench. When entering any construction area from paved roads, all sediment tracked
onto the road will be cleaned as soon as practical. If excessive tracking occurs or
equipment will access an area for extended periods (i.e. pipeyards or staging areas), a
stabilized construction entrance constructed of rock, timber mats, or other suitable
material will be installed. Refer to Detail C-8 for an example of a rock construction
entrance.
3.2.5 Trench Dewatering
Excessive water that accumulates in the trench will be pumped from the trench and
filtered prior to discharging onto the ground along the ROW. Filter bags, designed to
trap particles larger than 150 microns, will be used to remove sediment from the water.
The filter bags will be located on a relatively flat (< 5% slope), well-vegetated area. If the
dewatering location is within 50 feet of a stream or wetland, a barrier made of straw bales
and geotextile, filter socks, or silt fence should be considered to pool the water and allow
sediment to settle. The pump discharge hose will be inserted into the bags in the manner
specified by the manufacturer and securely clamped. When the bag is filled to ½ its total
capacity, it should be replaced with a new bag and properly disposed. If a well-vegetated
area is not available, a geotextile underlayment will be placed under the area discharge
area. Refer to Detail C-3 for filter bag placement and use.
3.2.6 Storm Drain Inlet Protection
Storm drain inlet protection devices will be installed to remove sediment from storm
water before it enters storm sewers or downstream areas. Inlet protection devices are
sediment barriers that may be constructed of geotextile fabrics and other materials that
are supported around or across the storm drain inlets. All storm drain inlet protection
requires frequent maintenance and cleaning to maintain sufficient flow rates and prevent
clogging. Geotextile inlet protection devices are commonly used for storm drain inlet
protection and the installation details are shown in Detail C-9. Sediment should be
removed from the Geotextile inlet protection when accumulations reach ½ the height of
the trap. Sediment will be removed and placed in a location where it is stable and not
subject to erosion and should never be washed into an inlet. Filter socks are also
acceptable sediment trapping devices. Sediment should be removed from the filter socks
when accumulations reach 1/3 the height of the trap. Filter socks will be installed per
manufacturer’s recommendations.
3.2.7 Rock Check Dam
This practice is limited to use in small open channels where it is necessary to slow the
velocity of flow in order to prevent erosion and allow for sedimentation. While this
practice often traps some sediment, its trapping efficiency is extremely poor, thus, it
should not be used as a primary sediment trapping device. Applications include
temporary swales, which because of their short length of service, are not practical to
receive a non-erosive lining or swales which need protection during the establishment of
grass linings. Check dams can be small rock dams constructed in ditches, swales, grassed
waterways or diversions. Installation details are shown in Detail C-10. Filter socks may
be used as check dams by staking the socks perpendicular to the flow of the channel.
Refer to Detail C-2 for installation. If a channel is expected to have high flow, filter
fabric may be placed in front of the check dam. Sediment shall be removed from behind
the check dam once it accumulates to one-half the original height of the check dam.
Removal of the check dam can be performed by hand or mechanical means. Stone and
sediment should be removed and the area graded and seeded.
3.2.8 Filter Socks
Filter socks may be used as perimeter sediment control devices and function by capturing
sediment by ponding and filtering water through the device during rain events.
Installation details are shown in Detail C-2. They may be a preferred alternative where
equipment may drive near or over sediment barriers, as they are not as prone to complete
failure as silt fence. Driving over filter socks is not recommended; however, if this
occurs, the filter sock should be immediately inspected for damage. If needed, the sock
should be repaired or replaced. The use of filter socks is applicable to slopes up to 2:1
(H:V), around inlets, and in other disturbed areas of construction sites requiring sediment
control. Typically, filter socks can handle the same water flow or slightly more than silt
fence. For most applications, standard silt fence is replaced with 12” diameter filter
socks. When construction is completed on site, the filter socks may be cut open and the
compost dispersed across upland ROW. The mesh netting material will be disposed of in
a normal trash container or removed by the contractor.
3.3
Permanent Sediment Barriers
3.3.1 Water Bars
The installation of permanent sediment barriers, such as waterbars, will be considered at
each slope greater than 1% grade, if in the judgment of EOG, potential runoff as the
result of ROW clearing will adversely affect a water-body or adjacent property. Details
and spacing requirements for waterbar installation are shown in Detail C-4.
3.3.2 Trench Plugs
Trench Plugs are required at each side of streams and wetlands crossings completed by
trenching, regardless of trench slope. These requirements supplement EOG’s general
construction practice for the placement of plugs in trenches on steep slopes. Trench
plugs will also be installed if it is determined that flooding at the low point elevation of a
pipeline will adversely affect the adjacent property. Installation will be in accordance
with the details depicted in Detail C-5 and Table 4 below.

3.4
Waterbody Crossings
Proposed stream-crossing techniques have been selected based on permitting, the
technical feasibility of the method at each site, the sensitivity of the fisheries resource,
and the ability of the technique to minimize the impact on local fish habitat and the
potential for sediment release to downstream habitats. Contingency methods will be used
if the preferred technique is assessed to be not practical or too high a risk at the time of
construction as determined by stream flows and other on-site conditions.
Typically, minor streams, ≤ 10-feet wide at normal flow depth, will be crossed using
“open cut” method. However, crossings of minor streams that are designated high
quality fisheries or exceptional value streams shall use “isolation” methods that include
using the flume pipe, the dam and pump, or the in-stream diversion method. Intermediate
streams, > 10-feet and ≤ 100-feet wide, and major streams, > 100-feet in width, will be
crossed using the wet trench method or by horizontal directional drilling.
Hazardous materials, chemicals, fuels, and lubricating oils will not be stored, and
concrete coating activities will not be conducted, within 100 feet of any waterbody,
wetland, or within any designated municipal watershed area (except at industrial
locations designated for these purposes by an appropriate governmental authority).
Refueling of construction equipment will be conducted at least 100 feet away from
waterbodies and wetlands.
Refer to the appropriate sections below for a description of the crossing methods, and to
Details B-2, B-3, B-4 and B-5 for depictions of the waterbody crossing methods.
3.4.1 Use of Sediment Barriers for Waterbody Crossings
Prior to any construction activities within the stream channel, perimeter sediment control
devices (i.e. filter fabric fence or filter socks) will be installed on both sides of the stream
banks (see Details C-1 and C-2). The general locations where sediment barriers will be
installed at waterbody crossings are shown on Details B-2, B-3, and B-4 (for each
applicable waterbody crossing technique).
Spoil piles from the tie-in and trench excavations will be placed behind the barriers to
protect the stream from sediment buildup. Assembly areas, temporary equipment and
non-hazardous material storage areas will be located a minimum of 50 feet back from the
top of the stream bank.
Perimeter sediment control devices shall be installed parallel to the stream bank with both
ends extending at least 8 feet upslope at 45 degrees to the main barrier alignment.
Sediment shall be removed when accumulations reach ½ the above ground height of the
device. Any section of the sediment barrier that has been undermined, topped or damaged
will be immediately repaired. The barriers shall remain in place until final stabilization of
the area.
3.4.2 Open Cut Method
Open cutting is the standard method for pipe installation in dry watercourses well
removed from fish bearing reaches. The pipeline trench is excavated in the bed and banks
of the flowing or dry watercourse channel and is backfilled after the pipe is lowered in.
The bed and banks of the channel are re-contoured to their original condition and
stabilized with seed and mulch. Erosion control matting and/or rip-rap may also be used
to further stabilize the watercourse.
After installation of the perimeter sediment control device, excavation activities may
commence. The trench will be excavated to the minimum width necessary to
accommodate installation of the pipe. The trench will be monitored to ensure proper
depth and width. In most instances, streambed substrate should be separated from the
subsoil and backfilled last to minimize impact. Excavated material that will subsequently
be used as backfill shall be immediately removed from the stream crossing and placed
behind the sediment barriers on the stream bank. The pipeline will then be lowered into
the trench and backfilled. Trench plugs will be installed at the top of the stream bank as
shown in Detail C-5. The stream bank will then be stabilized with seed and mulch.
Erosion control matting and/or rip-rap may also be applied to further stabilize the stream
banks.
3.4.3 Isolation Method
The isolation method is one in which a trench is excavated in the bed and banks of a
water body while the surface water in the water body flows uninterrupted and isolated
from the excavation area. Isolation techniques include, but are not limited to, fluming,
pumped by-pass, and in-channel diversion.
After placement of the perimeter sediment control device, installation of the dam and/or
flume will commence. Refer to Detail B-2 for pumped by-pass installation, Detail B-3
for flume installation, and Detail B-4 for in-stream channel diversion.
The structures for stream isolation methods will be installed and functioning prior to any
trench excavation within the stream channel. The sand-filled bags will be stacked at least
12 inches above the level of the stream. The trench will be excavated to the minimum
width necessary width to accommodate installation of the pipe. The trench will be
monitored to ensure proper depth and width. Excavated material that will subsequently
be used as backfill will be immediately removed from the stream crossing and placed
behind the sediment barriers on the stream bank. The pipeline will then be lowered into
the ditch and backfilled. (Pipe will be welded and bent prior to placement in the trench.)
Trench plugs will be installed at the top of the streambank as shown in Detail C-5. The
streambanks will be restored to original contour and stabilized with either riprap or
erosion control matting (see Detail C-6). The sand bag dams will be removed following
complete restoration of the stream channel and banks.
3.4.4 Horizontal Directional Drill Method
Horizontal directional drilling is the preferred crossing method for large river systems
with significant fisheries values. However, the geometry and geology of the terrain needs
to be appropriate to have a reasonable assurance of success. Due to the topography (steep
slopes) and constraints to allow boring equipment to be situated in the ROW, this method
may not be practical for all stream crossings.
After placement of filter fabric fence, the launching and receiving holes on both sides of
the stream will be excavated. These excavations will be at least 10 feet or more from the
stream bank (see Detail B-5). As a contingency for waterbody and wetland crossings, an
HDD Frac-Out Contingency Plan is provided in Appendix A-6.
3.5
Wetland Crossings
Prior to construction, wetland areas will be identified and flagged within the ROW. Extra
work and staging areas will be located at least 50 feet from the edge of the wetland,
where possible. The width of the disturbance will be limited to the minimum necessary
for the actual crossing. Movement of vehicles and equipment across the wetland will be
minimized. Where equipment and vehicles must traverse saturated wetlands, the use of
pads, mats, or other suitable methods will be used to minimize disturbance.
During trench excavation, the top 6 to 12 inches of topsoil (with the vegetative root mass)
will be carefully removed from over the trenchline and stockpiled separately from the
trench subsoil (unless standing water or saturated soils make this impracticable to
effectively segregate). Topsoil piles should be differentiated from subsoil piles with
flagging, ribbons or other effective devices. The pipeline will be installed and trench
plugs will be placed as identified in this plan, to prevent the trench from draining the
wetland or changing its hydrology. The trench will be backfilled with subsoil first and
topsoil on top, and the preconstruction contours will be restored. Excess material, if any,
will be removed from the wetland upon completion. Unless required by local agencies,
seeding, mulching, and fertilization will not be done in wetlands. Restoration of the
previously salvaged topsoil will allow the wetland vegetation indigenous to the wetland
to revegetate naturally. Disturbed slopes adjacent to the wetland will be stabilized
immediately upon pipeline installation.
Refer to the appropriate sections below for a description of the crossing methods and to
Details B-8 and B-9 for depictions of the wetland crossing methods.
3.6
Post Construction Erosion Control Practices
Permanent or temporary soil stabilization shall be applied to disturbed areas within seven
(7) days after final grade is reached on any portion of the pipeline. When seasonal
conditions prohibit the application of temporary or permanent seeding, dormant seeding
(applying seed at 1.5 times permanent seeding rate) or non-vegetative soil stabilization
practices such as mulching and matting shall be used.
3.6.1 Seeding
Once backfilling operations are completed, the tie-in excavations will be returned to their
original slope and contour. Wetlands will not be seeded, but will be allowed to revegetate
naturally from the seed stock and roots retained in the salvaged topsoil. All disturbed
areas will be seeded with plant species that have a high germination capacity. Seeding
will be performed with broadcast seeding equipment followed by a mulch covering. The
following application rates will be used:
Temporary Seeding
Seed
Mulch
Permanent Seeding
Seed
Mulch
2 pounds per 1,000 square feet (85 pounds per acre) with a winter
(annual) rye or wheat dominant mix
2-3 bales per 1,000 square feet minimum
3-5 pounds per 1,000 square feet (130 – 215 pounds per acre) with
a Kentucky blue grass and fescue mixture incorporating a
perennial rye or similar mix.
2-3 bales per 1,000 square feet minimum
In critical areas (e.g. adjacent to or within 50 feet of streams, ponds, or wetlands)
consideration will be given to providing a protective blanket for seeded areas. Mulch with
netting or protective blankets will be considered for seeded areas on slopes steeper than
3:1. Refer to Detail C-7 for proper installation of erosion control matting.
3.6.2 Fertilizing
Lime and fertilizer will be applied at recommended amounts, according to the following
rates:
Lime
100 pounds per 1000 square feet (2 tons per acre) Agricultural
Grade Limestone
Fertilizer
25 pounds per 1000 square feet (1000 pounds per acre) of a 10-1010 mixture
3.6.3 Post-Construction Monitoring
At the end of construction/restoration activities, a project environmental inspector or
other qualified professional will perform a final site erosion control inspection to identify
any remaining punch-list items to be completed to ensure long-term soil stability. The
project area will be monitored on a regular basis and any needed repairs made during the
post-construction period. Temporary erosion and sediment control measures will not be
removed until the disturbed area is stabilized. Remedial soil conditioning, fertilization,
reseeding and mulching will be performed as needed.
Prior to filing of the Notice of Termination (within 45 days of confirming that final
stabilization has been achieved), the qualified professional shall certify that the site has
undergone final stabilization using either vegetative or structural stabilization methods
and that all temporary sediment and erosion controls (such as silt fence) not needed for
long-term erosion control have been removed.
3.7
Hydrostatic Discharge
After installation, some pipelines require testing using hydrostatic pressure to ensure
integrity of the welds and seams. The subsequent test water is typically discharged on-site
or into a sanitary sewer. If discharge into surface waters of the state is expected, EOG
will submit a Notice of Intent (NOI) to obtain coverage under General Permit Number
OHH000001 from the Ohio EPA. State-designated exceptional value waters, waterbodies
which provide habitat for threatened or endangered species, or waterbodies designated as
public water supplies will not be used as receiving waters unless appropriate Federal,
state and/or local permitting agencies have granted written permission. Discharges into
sanitary sewers require approval from the applicable sewer district. Environmental
personnel must be notified prior to the hydrostatic discharge release. Sampling required
by the OEPA permit or sewer district will be performed by qualified personnel, typically
the on-site environmental inspector.
BMPs outlined in the EOG Standard Erosion and Sediment Control Plan and OEPA
permit must be used during the hydrostatic discharge. Examples of accepted BMPs
include filter bags, filter socks, and dewatering pits made from straw bales lined with
geotextile. Every effort will be made to discharge onto a large, well vegetated, nonsloping, upland area. The water will be regulated at the discharge point to prevent
excessive flow and scouring. Initially, the release rate is not to exceed 350 gallons per
minute; if the EI or other qualified environmental personnel deem that BMPs are
functioning well enough to increase the velocity, flow can be raised to a maximum of 500
gallons per minute. Test water is typically obtained from a municipal water source and
no chemicals or additives are to be used in the test water. If the discharge conditions
require releasing water near a surface water of the state or if high levels of iron or total
suspended solids are anticipated, BMPs such as slowing the velocity of the release and/or
using treated filter socks to remove suspended solids and metals may be considered to
stay in compliance with the NOI.
4.0
ADDITIONAL CONSTRUCTION SITE POLLUTION CONTROL
Sediment is the primary pollutant of concern resulting from construction activities.
However, other potential sources of pollution are also present during construction, such
as petrochemicals, construction materials and wastes, and leftover hazardous and toxic
substances. These materials require proper management and handling. Keeping these
substances from polluting runoff can be accomplished to a large extent through good
housekeeping and following the manufacturer’s recommendations for their use and
disposal. The following guidance will help to prevent additional construction site
pollutants from leaving the site.
4.1
Waste Disposal Containers
Waste disposal containers shall be provided for the proper collection of all waste
materials including construction debris, sanitary garbage, petroleum products, and any
hazardous materials to be used on-site. Containers shall be covered and not leaking. All
waste material shall be disposed of at facilities approved for that material.
4.2
Construction Related Waste Materials Disposal
No construction related waste materials are to be buried onsite. By exception, clean fill
(bricks, hardened concrete, soil) may be utilized in a way that does not encroach upon
natural wetlands, streams, or their floodplains. Filling of stream side areas is “fill” and
will not be done so no contamination of waters of the state will occur.
4.3
Handling Construction Chemicals
Mixing, pumping, transferring, or other handling of construction chemicals such as
fertilizer, lime, asphalt, concrete drying compounds, and all other potentially hazardous
materials shall be performed in an area away from any water source, ditch, or storm
drain.
4.4
Construction and Demolition Debris (CD&D) Disposal
CD&D waste must be disposed of in accordance with ORC 3714 at an approved Ohio
EPA CD&D Landfill. CD&D waste is defined as all materials attached to a structure
which is being demolished.
4.5
Equipment Fueling and Maintenance
Equipment fueling and maintenance shall be performed way from watercourses, ditches,
or storm drain inlets, in an area designated for that purpose. The designated area shall be
equipped for recycling oil and catching spills.
4.6
Concrete Wash Water / Wash Outs
Concrete wash water shall not be allowed to flow to streams, ditches, storm drain inlets,
or any other water conveyance. A sump or pit with no potential for discharge shall be
constructed if needed to contain concrete wash water. Field tile or other subsurface
drainage structure within 10 ft. of the sump shall be cut and plugged.
4.7
Contaminated Soils
If substances such as oil, diesel fuel, hydraulic fluid, antifreeze, etc., are spilled, leaked,
or released onto the soil, the soil should be dug up and disposed of at a licensed sanitary
landfill, or other approved petroleum contaminated soil remediation facility (not a
construction /demolition debris landfill). Storm water runoff associated with
contaminated soils is not authorized under the Ohio EPA General Storm Water Permit
associated with Construction Activities.
In the event that there are areas of contaminated soils encountered during construction,
additional measures above and beyond the conditions of the Ohio EPA’s General Storm
Water Permit will be required. The soils shall be dug up and disposed of at a licensed
facility (not a construction/demolition debris landfill). Depending on the extent of
contamination, additional treatment and/or collection and disposal may be required. All
storm water discharged associated with the contaminated soils must be authorized under
an alternate NPDES permit.
4.8
Spill Reporting Requirements
Spills on pavement shall be absorbed with sawdust, kitty litter, or other absorbent
materials and disposed of with the trash at a licensed sanitary landfill and disposed of
with the trash at a licensed sanitary landfill. Hazardous or industrial wastes such as most
solvents, gasoline, oil-based paints, and cement curing compounds require special
handling. Spills shall be reported to Ohio EPA (1-800-282-9378). Spills of 25 gallons or
more of petroleum products shall be reported to Ohio EPA (1-800-282-9378), the local
fire department, and the Local Emergency Planning Committee within 30 min. of
discovery of the release. All spills which result in contact with waters of the state must
be reported to Ohio EPA’s Hotline.
4.9
Open Burning
Open burning is not allowed within restricted areas such as within municipal corporation
limits. No materials containing rubber, grease, asphalt, or petroleum products (such as
tires, autoparts, plastic, or plastic coated wire) may be burned (see OAC 3745-19) at any
location.
4.10 Dust Control
Dust control is required to prevent nuisance conditions. Dust controls must be used in
accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications and not be applied in a manner, which
would result in a discharge to waters of the state. Isolation distances from bridges, catch
basins, and other drainageways must be observed. Application (excluding water) may not
occur when precipitation is imminent as noted in the short term forecast. Used oil may
not be used as dust control.
4.11 Other Air Permitting Requirements
All contractors and subcontractors must be made aware that certain activities associated
with construction will require air permits. Activities including but not limited to mobile
concrete batch plants, mobile asphalt plants, concrete crushers, large generators, etc., will
require Ohio EPA Air Permits for installation and operation.
4.12 Process Waste Water / Leachate Management
Ohio EPA Construction General Permit only allows discharge of storm water and does
not include other waste streams/discharges such as vehicle and or equipment washing,
on-site leachate concrete washouts, which are all considered process wastewaters. All
process wastewaters must be collected and properly disposed at an approved disposal
facility. In the event leachate or septage is discharged, it must be isolated for collection
and proper disposal and corrective actions taken to eliminate the source of waste water.
Sanitary waste collection facilities such as Port-a-Jons will be provided along the project
route.

Horizontal directional drilling (HDD) is a widely used trenchless construction method which accomplishes the installation of
pipelines and buried utilities with minimal disturbance to the surface of streams and wetlands. Trench excavation (Trench)
removes the top 6 to 12 inches of topsoil. The trench is backfilled with subsoil first and topsoil on top. These crossing methods
will be in accord with SWPPP details.

geotextile fabric, trench plugs, straw bale dikes, waterbars, and/or
rock check dams will be installed prior to construction.
Steel plates will be placed across roadways and driveways for
ingress and egress.
In most instances, streambed substrate should be separated from
the subsoil and backfilled last to minimize impacts.
To the extent all other constraints allow, streams shall only be
crossed during periods of low flow.
Excess soil will be spread onsite, but outside and away from
floodplains, streams, drainage ways, or other environmentally
sensitive areas.
In critical areas (e.g., adjacent to or within 50 feet of streams,
ponds, or wetlands) a protective blanket or netting will be installed
for seeded areas on slopes steeper than 3:1.
Following completion of construction activities, disturbed areas will
be permanently stabilized (i.e., seeded, mulched, and fertilized).
If construction activities extend outside of the work corridor, timber
mats and/or other protective measures must be used to cross
through all water resources.
For wetland crossings during trench excavation, the top 6 to
12 inches of topsoil (with the vegetative root mass) will be removed
from over the trenchline and stockpiled separately from the trench
subsoil.

ODNR COMMENTS TO: Dominion; Gregory Eastridge, [email protected]
Project: The East Ohio Gas Co. PIR 256 Racoon Rd Phase III
Location: Austintown Township, Mahoning County, Ohio
The Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) has completed a review of the above referenced project. These comments were
generated by an inter-disciplinary review within the Department. These comments have been prepared under the authority of the Fish
and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et seq.), the National Environmental Policy Act, the Coastal
Zone Management Act, Ohio Revised Code and other applicable laws and regulations. These comments are also based on ODNR’s
experience as the state natural resource management agency and do not supersede or replace the regulatory authority of any local, state
or federal agency nor relieve the applicant of the obligation to comply with any local, state or federal laws or regulations.
Fish and Wildlife: The Division of Wildlife (DOW) has the following comments.
The project is within the range of the Indiana bat (Myotis sodalis), a state and federally endangered species. The following species of
trees have relatively high value as potential Indiana bat roost trees: Shagbark hickory (Carya ovata), Shellbark hickory (Carya
laciniosa), Bitternut hickory (Carya cordiformis), Black ash (Fraxinus nigra), Green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), White ash
(Fraxinus americana), Shingle oak (Quercus imbricaria), Northern red oak (Quercus rubra), Slippery elm (Ulmus rubra), American
elm (Ulmus americana), Eastern cottonwood (Populus deltoides), Silver maple (Acer saccharinum), Sassafras (Sassafras albidum),
Post oak (Quercus stellata), and White oak (Quercus alba). Indiana bat habitat consists of suitable trees that include dead and dying
trees of the species listed above with exfoliating bark, crevices, or cavities in upland areas or riparian corridors and living trees of the
species listed above with exfoliating bark, cavities, or hollow areas formed from broken branches or tops. If suitable trees occur
within the project area, these trees must be conserved. If suitable habitat occurs on the project area and trees must be cut, cutting must
occur between September 30 and April 1. If suitable trees must be cut during the summer months, a net survey must be conducted in
May or June prior to cutting. Net surveys shall incorporate either two net sites per square kilometer of project area with each net site
containing a minimum of two nets used for two consecutive nights, or one net site per kilometer of stream within the project limits
with each net site containing a minimum of two nets used for two consecutive nights. If no tree removal is proposed, the project is not
likely to impact this species.
The project is within the range of the black bear (Ursus americanus), a state endangered species. Due to the mobility of this species,
the project is not likely to have an impact on this species.
The project is within the range of the Northern harrier (Circus cyaneus), a state endangered bird. This is a common migrant and
winter species. Nesters are much rarer, although they occasionally breed in large marshes and grasslands. Harriers often nest in loose
colonies. The female builds a nest out of sticks on the ground, often on top of a mound. Harriers hunt over grasslands. A statewide
1
survey has not been completed for this species. A lack of records does not indicate the species is absent from the area. Since this
habitat will not be impacted, the project is not likely to impact this species.
The project is within the range of the Eastern massasauga (Sistrurus catenatus), a state endangered and a federal candidate snake
species. Due to the lack of records in the project area for this species and the land use of the project area, the project is not likely to
impact this species.
The ODNR Natural Heritage Database has no records for rare or endangered species at this project site. We are unaware of any
unique ecological sites, animal assemblages, scenic rivers, state wildlife areas, nature preserves, parks or forests, national wildlife
refuges or other protected natural areas within the project area. Our inventory program does not provide a complete survey of Ohio
wildlife, and relies on information supplied by many individuals and organizations. Therefore, a lack of records for any particular
area is not a statement that rare species or unique features are absent from that area.
Geological Survey: The Division of Geological Survey has the following comments.
The contractor or project manager should check for potential abandoned underground mines (AUMs) and abandoned oil & gas wells
at this site.
ODNR appreciates the opportunity to provide these comments. Please contact John Kessler at (614) 265-6621 if you have questions
about these comments or need additional information.

PROJECT PRE-CONSTRUCTION
ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE SUMMARY
THIS PROJECT HAS BEEN CLEARED FOR CONSTRUCTION IN REGARDS TO
ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE.
Project Description: For the PIR 256 – Raccoon Road Phase III project, the East Ohio
Gas Company (EOG) will install approximately 7,600 feet of natural gas pipeline under
the EOG Pipeline Replacement Program within Austintown and Austintown Township,
Mahoning County, Ohio. The line being replaced is twenty (20)-inches in diameter. The
northern portion of the project is a 70-foot wide easement extending south to North Four
Mile Run Road and to North Raccoon Road where the easement extends from the center
line of the road, 60-feet to the west and 30-feet to the east. Land use associated with the
project area is residential, commercial, rural and recreational.
A water resource survey performed on October 2, 2012 identified six (6) wetlands and
five (5) streams within the project area. Refer to Tables 1 and 2 at the end of this
document for additional information about these water resources.
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE): This replacement project will cross Streams 1
(Fourmile Run), 2 and 4 (Bears Den Run), and Wetlands A, C, D, E and F. These water
resources will be crossed via open trench cutting resulting in impacts to 34 linear feet of
stream and 0.164 acre of wetland.
Because of these impacts to water resources, a Pre-Construction Notification was sent to
USACE on December 20, 2012 for authorization under Nationwide Permit #12. An
authorization letter was issued on March 28, 2013.
USACE determined that the proposed impacts associated with the project meet the
criteria for NWP #12 under the February 21, 2012 Federal Register, Notice of Reissuance
of the NWP (77 FR 10184) provided that there is full compliance with all terms and
conditions. Relevant NWP #12 conditions include the following:
•
The maximum disturbance width through the water resources will be limited to
fifty (50) feet wide.
•
All hydric soils up to twelve (12) inches in depth within the wetlands shall be
stockpiled and replaced as the topmost backfill layer.
•
If material from trench excavation is sidecast into waters of the United States, it
will be placed so that it is not dispersed by currents or other forces and it will be
backfilled or removed in less than three (3) months.
Project Compliance Summary
Page 2 of 6
•
The trench will be backfilled in such a manner as to avoid draining waters of the
United States.
•
Exposed slopes and stream banks will be stabilized immediately upon
completion of the work at each water body.
•
EOG will use existing access routes and the EOG gas line easement for access
to the project area. Use of access roads will be limited to the minimum width
necessary. Equipment traveling across water bodies and saturated wetlands
along the easement access routes will use mats or bridges across the
ground/resource as needed to protect the resource from unnecessary disturbance.
These mats or bridges will be removed upon completion of the construction
work. All access roads used solely for construction of the utility line will be
removed upon completion of the work.
•
Anti-seep collars or clay plugs will be utilized for trenching activities conducted
in the wetlands.
•
No impacts to scrub/shrub and forested wetlands will occur with this pipeline
replacement project. All trees in Wetland A will be avoided. The construction
corridor within Wetland E has been reduced to twenty five (25) feet from the
edge of the road pavement, within the emergent portion of the wetland.
EOG Action: Streams 1 (Fourmile Run), 2 and 4 (Bears Den Run), and wetlands A, C,
D, E and F will be crossed via open trench cut method.
Construction through water resources must be limited to a maximum fifty (50) foot
wide disturbance area. The construction corridor within Wetland E is limited to twenty
five (25) feet, avoiding the wooded portion of the wetland.
All trees in Wetland A must be avoided
During trench excavation, the contractor must stockpile the top 12 inches of wetland
soils and replace as the topmost backfill layer.
Trench plugs must be used for the trenching conducted in the wetland. The wetlands
and streams must be restored to original grade so as to avoid permanent impacts.
Exposed slopes and stream banks must be stabilized and re-vegetated immediately upon
completion of the work at each water body.
The contractor must implement the project specific SWPPP to protect the water
resources.
The authorization from USACE is valid for two years from the date of the coordination
response letter. If construction is not started by March 28, 2015, coordination with
USACE must be re-initiated.
Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (EPA): Streams 1 (Fourmile Run), 2 and 4
(Bears Den Run), and Wetlands A, C, D, E and F within the project area will be crossed
using the trench cut method, temporarily impacting 34 linear feet of stream and 0.032
acre of wetland.
Page 3 of 6
All NWP #12 general conditions, regional conditions and Ohio EPA special limitations
and conditions will be met obviating the need to obtain an individual 401 Water Quality
Certification.
EOG Action: EOG is to ensure that all NWP #12 conditions will be met and that the
project specific SWPPP is implemented to protect water quality.
Ohio Department Natural Resources (ODNR) Consultation: A data request letter was
e-mailed to ODNR on December 18, 2012. An e-mail response from ODNR was issued
on January 18, 2013.
The ODNR Natural Heritage Database has no records at this project site. However, a lack
of records for any particular area is not a statement that rare species or unique features are
absent from that area.
The Division of Geological Survey has said that the project manager or contractor should
check for abandoned underground mines and abandoned oil and gas wells at the project
site.
The ODNR Division of Wildlife (DOW) has determined that the project area occurs
within the range of the species listed below and thus the construction activities may pose
a potential effect on these species. ODNR provided the following guidance and
recommendations:
Indiana bat:
If suitable habitat trees for the Indiana bat (Myotis sodalis) occur
within the project area, these trees must be conserved. If suitable
habitat occurs in the project area and trees must be cut, cutting must
occur between September 30 and April 1. If suitable trees must be
cut during the summer months, a net survey must be conducted in
May or June prior to cutting. If no tree removal is proposed, the
project is not likely to impact this state and federally endangered
Indiana bat (Myotis sodalis).
Black bear:
Due to the mobility of the black bear (Ursus americanus), the project
is not likely to impact this state endangered species.
Northern harrier: This state endangered bird (Circus cyaneus) can be found in large
marshes and grasslands. Since this habitat will not be impacted, the
project is not likely to impact this species.
Eastern massasauga: Due to the lack of records in the project area for this species and
land use of the project, the project is not likely to impact this state
endangered and federal candidate rattlesnake (Sistrurus catenatus).
EOG Action: Fifteen (15) potential bat habitat and/or roost trees were identified within
the project area. These identified trees will be avoided during construction. If they are
to be removed, they will be cut between September 30 and April 1. If these trees must be
cut during the summer months of April 1 to September 30, a net survey must be
conducted in May or June prior to cutting.
Page 4 of 6
For questions for abandoned underground mines and abandoned oil or gas wells
within the project area, the contractor or project manager can contact John Kessler of
the ODNR at 614-265-6621.
The authorization from the ODNR is valid for two (2) years from the date of the
coordination response letter. If construction is not started by January 18, 2015,
coordination with the ODNR must be re-initiated.
Ohio Historic Preservation Office (OHPO) Consultation: An OHPO Desktop Review
has been completed for this project and is in the project file. Based on the review of the
OHPO data, one (1) historic structure, one (1) Phase 1 Survey Area, and three (3)
cemeteries were identified within or adjacent to the project area. The Phase 1 Survey
Area recorded within and extending beyond the project area was performed for the East
Ohio Gas Company for a pipeline replacement project. No cultural material was
recovered within the survey area and the project will have no adverse effects on
prehistoric or historic archaeological resources and will not impact any nearby historic
properties or cemeteries.
EOG Action: No action required.
Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP): A SWPPP has been prepared and
approved by EOG.
EOG Action: The construction contractor will sign and adhere to the SWPPP. A copy
of the signed SWPPP must be on site at all times during construction.
Ohio EPA Hydrostatic Test (HT) Water Discharge Permit: No hydrostatic test water
will be discharged into waters of the state. It is proposed to discharge the test waters on
the north end of the site. No discharge to the water resources in that area will occur as the
hydrostatic test waters will be discharged through slow release and containment. With the
avoidance of discharge into waters of the state, an HTNOI is not required for this project.
EOG Action: Discharge of the hydrostatic waters into water resources must be avoided.
If it is necessary to discharge into the water resources, it will be necessary to submit an
HTNOI application to the Ohio EPA.
Ohio EPA Notice of Intent (NOI): A total of approximately 7.5 acres of ground
disturbance is anticipated with an excavation width of 20-60 feet. As this area of
disturbance is an acre or greater, an NOI is required for this project.
A cover letter, NOI Form, and fee were sent to the Ohio EPA on December 17, 2012.
Ohio EPA approval for coverage under the Storm Water Construction General Permit
(OHC000003) was issued December 27, 2012 - Ohio EPA Facility Permit Number:
3GC06289*AG.
EOG Action: The construction contractor will adhere to the applicable construction
terms and conditions of Storm Water Construction General Permit OHC000003. A
signed copy of the NOI must be present on site during construction activities.
Page 5 of 6
The authorization from the Ohio EPA is valid as long as the current general permit
(OHC000004) is in effect, until April 20, 2018. If construction is not completed by this
date, coordination with the Ohio EPA may need to be re-initiated.
Mahoning County SWCD: An EPA NOI Application, an Application for Approval
under the Mahoning County Erosion and Sediment Control Requirements, SWPPP, and
the review fee were sent to the County SWCD on December 17, 2012.
County approval was issued in a letter dated March 21, 2013
