We have reviewed the subject documents and determined that, based upon a review of
the information provided and available maps, the construction of these projects are likely to
impact streams and/or wetlands within the work corridor. Please be aware that impacts
associated with the discharge of fill into jurisdictional waters of the United States are subject to
our regulatory authority pursuant to Section 404 of tlie Clean Water Act. Any discharge of.
excavated or fill material into waters of the United States and/or any adjacent wetlands would
require Department of the Army (DA) permit authorization. The type of DA authorization
required (i.e., general or individual permit) will be determined by the location, type, and extent
of jurisdictional area impacted by the project, and by the project design and construction limits.
Until additional data is furnished which details the extent of the construction limits of the
proposed project, and an onsite inspection is completed with regard to deterrninations of the
presence of jurisdictional waters in the project area, we are unable to verify that the project will
not have jurisdictional impacts, or to provide specific comments concerning DA permit
requirements or a recommendation of alternatives. To assist you with determining permitting
requirements, we recommend that you perform a detailed delineation of the streams and/or
wetlands present on the project site. When.this information becomes available, it should be
forwarded to our office for review and comment, as well as a determination of DA permit
eligibility.
Should you have any further questions related to DA permits for this project, please
contact me at [phone] or [e-mail]. ,
