must also serve a copy of the document on that resource agency. A copy 
of any motion to intervene must also be served upon each representative

    k. Description of Request: To accommodate the residents of the 
Ledges of the Ridge community, Russell proposes to construct a new 
cluster dock adjacent to an existing 10-slip cluster dock. Russell 
proposes to add two boat slips to the existing 10-slip cluster dock and 
construct a second 12-slip cluster dock. The boat slips would 
accommodate 24 boats. Further, Russell would construct drive-on 
personal watercraft (PWC) lifts that accommodate 12 PWCs at each of the 
two cluster docks. Dredging of 1,000 cubic yards of lake bottom would
