Section III D 1 otherwise see Section III B below 1 TNW Identify TNW Summarize rationale supporting determination 2 Wetland adjacent to TNW Summarize rationale supporting conclusion that wetland is adjacent B CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND ITS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY) This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands if any and it helps determine whether or not the standards for Jurisdiction established under Rapazrox have been met The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are relatively permanent waters (RPWs) i e tributaries that typically flow year round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e g typically 3 months) A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is also jurisdictional If the aquatic resource is not a TNW but has year round (perennial) now skip to Section III D 2 If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow skip to Section III D 4 A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation Corps districts and EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water even though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law If the waterbody° is not an RPW or a wetland directly abutting an RPW a JD will require additional data to determine if the waterbody has a significant nexus with a TNW If the tributary has adjacent wetlands the significant nexus evaluation must consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands This significant nexus evaluation that combines for analytical purposes the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD request is the tributary or its adjacent wetlands or both If the JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands complete Section III B 1 for the tributary Section III B 2 for any onsite wetlands and Section III B

(Y/N) Size (in acres) Summarize overall biological chemical and physical functions being performed C SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATION A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed by any wetlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical physical and biological integrity of a TNW For each of the following situations a significant nexus exists if the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical physical and/or biological integrity of a TNW Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include but are not limited to the volume duration and frequency of the flow of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent wetlands It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e g between a tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNW) Similarly the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or outside of a floodplam is not solely determinative of significant nexus Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNW as identified in the Rapmios Guidance and discussed in the Instructional Guidebook Factors to consider include for example Does the tributary in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any) have the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to TNWs or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW9 Does the tributary in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any) provide habitat and bfecycle support functions for fish and other species such as feeding nesting spawning or rearing young for species that are present in the TNW9 Does the tributary in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any) have the capacity to transfer nutrients and of -Lanic carbon that support downstream foodwebs9 Does the tributary in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any) have other relationships to the physical chemical or biological integrity of the TNW9 Note the above list of considerations is not inclusive and other functions observed or known to occur should be documented below 1 Significant nexus findings for non RPW that has no adjacent

completing the appropriate sections in Section III below For purposes of this form an RPW is defined as a tributary that is not a TNW and that typically flows year round or has continuous flow at least seasonally (e g typically 3 months) 3 Supporting documentation is presented in Section III F SECTION III CWA ANAL YSIS A TNWs AND WETLANDS ADJACENT TO TNWs The agencies will assert jurisdiction over TNWs and wetlands adjacent to TNWs If the aquatic resource is a TNW complete Section III A 1 and Section III D 1 only if the aquatic resource is a wetland adjacent to a TNW complete Sections III A 1 and 2 and Section III D 1 otherwise see Section III B below 1 TNW Identify TNW Summanze rationale supporting determination 2 Wetland adjacent to TNW Summarize rationale supporting conclusion that wetland is adjacent B CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND ITS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY) This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands if any and it helps determine whether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Rapaaas have been met The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are relatively permanent waters (RPWs) i e tributaries that typically flow year round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e g typically 3 months) A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is also jurisdictional If the aquatic resource is not a TNW but has year round (perennial) flow skip to Section III D 2 If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow skip to Section III D 4 A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation Corps districts and EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water even though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law If the waterbody° is not an RPW or a wetland directly abutting an RPW a JD will require additional data to determine if the waterbody has a significant nexus with a TNW If the tributary has adjacent wetlands the significant nexus evaluation must consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands This significant nexus evaluation that combines for analytical purposes the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD request is the tributary or its adjacent wetlands or both If the JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands complete Section III B 1 for the tributary Section III B 2 for any onsite wetlands and Section III B 3 for all wetlands adjacent to that tributary both onsite and offsite The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section III C below 1

(Y/N) Size (in acres) Summarize overall biological chenucal and physical functions being performed C SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATION A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed by any wetlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical physical and biological integrity of a TNW For each of the following situations a significant nexus exists if the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical physical and/or biological integrity of a TNW Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include but are not limited to the volume duration and frequency of the flow of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent wetlands It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e g between a tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNW) Similarly the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or outside of a floodplain is not solely determinative of significant nexus Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNW as identified in the Rapanos Guidance and discussed in the Instructional Guidebook Factors to consider include for example Does the tributary in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any) have the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to TNWs or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW9 Does the tributary in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any) provide habitat and hfecycle support functions for fish and other species such as feeding nesting spawning or rearing young for species that are present in the TNW? Does the tributary in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any) have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that support downstream foodwebs? Does the tributary in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any) have other relationships to the physical chemical or biological integrity of the TNW9 Note the above list of considerations is not

species that are present in the TNW9 Does the tributary in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any) have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that support downstream foodwebs9 Does the tributary in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any) have other relationships to the physical chemical or biological integrity of the TNW9 Note the above list of considerations is not inclusive and other functions observed or known to occur should be documented below 1 Significant nexus findings for non RPW that has no adjacent wetlands and flows directly or indirectly into TNWs
