Jauhara – just wanted to let you know that Paul is on vacation until the middle of next week. - Nancy

 

 

Hi Paul,

 

In our meeting you mention you would submit the final signed calculations to our office. Would you please submit them as soon as possible so that we can begin to move forward with the permit.

 

Thank you,

 

Jauhara

Hello Paul,

 

The permit would come from our real estate department. I spoke with the director regarding your permit and he wanted to review the plans further before deciding if you would need a Temporary Access Permit (TAP) or a permanent agreement. Once he has finished his review I will reach out to you with next steps.

 

Thank you,

Jauhara,

 

It was good to meet with you last week.  I was wondering if you had a chance to put together the information I need to make the application for the NJ Transit permit for Oaks Road.  Can you send me the application and the person to whom it is to be submitted?

 

Thanks.

 

 

 

Hello Mr. Ferriero,

 

Our engineer has reviewed the plans, and we would like to schedule a meeting in January to discuss. Please send me a few dates you are available, so I can schedule a meeting as soon as possible.

 

Thank you

Jauhara,

 

I am following up to see if there were any comments on this.  Thanks.

 

 

 

Jauhara,

 

Please accept this letter in response to the questions that have been raised relative to proposed project on Oaks Road in Long Hill Township.  I understand that there have been a number of communications to your office that alleged the work would somehow have an adverse impact on the NJ Transit culvert that is downstream of the project site.  This is not the case and the attached documents demonstrate that.  The first two attachments are the existing and proposed drainage area maps to the NJ Transit culvert.  As can be seen, the drainage area remains the same and is 38 acres at the culvert.  The last attachment is the hydrologic analysis of the watershed.  While the existing road is not paved, it is “impervious” under the NJDEP stormwater definitions.  Notwithstanding that condition, the stormwater calculations assume a lower curve number (therefore less runoff) than the proposed condition.  Even with this very broad assumption, the calculations show that there is no change in the overall curve number for the watershed.  Similarly, there is no change in the time of concentration.  Since none of the three variables associated with the runoff calculations change, there is no increase in the runoff to the culvert.  Additionally, the limit of work is approximately 100’ away from the NJ Transit right of way and no right of way permit is required.

 

I believe this should close out the matter. 

 

Please let me know if you have any additional questions.
