Public inputPrevious Public Information Meeting input and CSS advisory group ratings favor Pebble

Creek Alternatives over Sunset-to-County X Alternative and No-Build Alt, though there have been comments in support of the Sunset-to-County X and No-Build Alternatives

Groundwater None

No major cuts into slope required; would

affect groundwater fed wetland north of

Sunset Drive. Mitigation measures would reduce groundwater impacts.

Approx 25-foot cut into slope may affect groundwater

flow. Would directly affect fen south of Sunset Drive. Mitigation measures would

reduce groundwater impacts.

Approx 32-foot cut into slope required; more likely than

other alternatives to intercept groundwater that supports

down-slope wetlands. Mitigation measures would

reduce groundwater impacts.

Threatened and endangered resources

None

Seaside crowfoot population would be

eliminated; potential for transplant exists, although DNR has no experience with transplanting this plant species. 7.8-acre impact to Butler’s garter

snake. Greatest impact on Butler’s garter snake1 and Blandings turtle because

of wider Sunset Dr. barrier between habitat areas.

8.3-acre impact to Butler’s garter snake habitat. Less impact on Butler’s garter

snake and Blandings turtle because it lies on the edge of habitat area.

6.5-acre impact to Butler’s garter snake habitat. Less

impact on Butler’s garter snake and Blandings turtle because it lies on the edge of habitat area.

Wetland None12 acres of wetland

affected. Potential for on-site/near-site mitigation.

14 acres of wetland affected. Would affect 0.3 acre of

a fen just south of Sunset Drive. Potential for on-site/near-site mitigation

11 acres of wetland affected. Potential for on-site/near-site mitigation

Water qualityLess than Build

Alternatives, but untreated run-off will continue to run directly into Pebble Creek

from existing bridges.

Net increase of 9 acres of impervious area south of railroad. Run-off from

roadway would discharge adjacent to Pebble Creek.

Net increase of 13 acres of impervious area south of railroad. Run-off would

discharge several hundred feet from Pebble Creek.

Net increase of 13 acres of impervious area south of railroad. Run-off would

discharge several hundred feet from Pebble Creek.

Noise None70 houses with noise

impact; some are eligible for mitigation measures.

55 houses with noise impact; some are eligible for mitigation measures.

55 houses with noise impact; some are eligible for mitigation measures.

Floodplain None 10-acre floodplain impact 7-acre floodplain impact 7-acre floodplain impact1 The DNR is considering removing the Butler’s garter snake and Blandings turtle from the state’s threatened species list.
