Also enclosed are the As-Built Plans of the project and photos of the completed site work. Per the plans, six (6) Clethra alnifolia, sweet pepper bush, and five (5) Matteuccia struthiopteris, ostrich fern, were installed. Japanese knotweed infestation was recently cut, and stumps removed in areas where it was feasible to not disturb the bank. No herbicide was used in the invasive plant control activities. The original front porch and footings were removed, and the new side porch and deck and associated footings were built according to plan and elevation. I certify that a competent person under my supervision has inspected the work and found that it has been constructed in substantial conformance with the Order of Conditions issued on 1/27/2022.
