It should not affect your project review. Please keep in mid that cutting vegetation isn't what DES is actually permitting. We are tasked with requesting evidence that shows the owner understands what the vegetation maintenance requirements are and that they will adhere to them when conducting future cutting, landscaping, etc. We are going to focus on whether or not your application shows that there is an understanding that vegetation requirements exists. Then we should be able to add a condition stating reinforcing the need to stay up to date on the requirements and hopefully avoid the need for anyone to revise plans already submitted.
