Walter,
Reference is made to ORM ID SAW-2024-00878, please reference this number on any correspondence
regarding this action.
On May 8, 2024, the documentation submitted "Frederick Douglass ES PJD Request" was reviewed using
desktop tools including aerial imagery, Gen 2 LiDAR, and elevation surveys and a site visit was made on May
9, 2024. Based upon this review the attached delineation "Feature Exhibit — Fredrick Douglass Elementary
School" and dated April 2024 has been verified as accurate. You are received this delineation concurrence per
our conversation on -site May 91h 2024.
We have reviewed the information provided by you concerning the aquatic resources, and by copy of this e-
mail, are confirming that the aquatic resources delineation has been verified by the Corps to be a sufficiently
accurate and reliable representation of the location and extent of aquatic resources within the identified review
area. The location and extent of these aquatic resources are shown on the delineation map, labeled Feature
Exhibit — Fredrick Douglass Elementary School.
Regulatory Guidance Letter (RGL) 16-01
https://usace.contentdm.ocic.org/utils/getfile/collection/p1602lco119/id/1256 provides guidance for
Jurisdictional Determinations (JD) and states "The Corps generally does not issue a JD of any type where no JD
has been requested". At this time, we are only verifying the delineation. This delineation may be relied upon
for use in the permit evaluation process, including determining compensatory mitigation. "This verification
does not address nor include any consideration for geographic jurisdiction on aquatic resources and shall not be
interpreted as such. This delineation verification is not an Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD) and is
not an appealable action under the Regulatory Program Administrative Appeal Process (33 CFR Part 331).
However, you may request an AJD, which is an appealable action.

If you wish to receive a Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (PJD), or an Approved Jurisdictional
Determination (AJD) please respond accordingly, otherwise nothing further is required, and we will not provide
any additional documentation.
The delineation included herein has been conducted to identify the location and extent of the aquatic resource
boundaries and/or the jurisdictional status of aquatic resources for purposes of the Clean Water Act for the
particular site identified in this request. This delineation may not be valid for the Wetland Conservation
Provisions of the Food Security Act of 1985, as amended. If you or your tenant are USDA program participants,
or anticipate participation in USDA programs, you should discuss the applicability of a certified wetland
determination with the local USDA service center, prior to starting work.
Sincerely,
Shane
