Page 3 Version:May2017 JurisdictionalDeterminationRequest F.JURISDICTIONALDETERMINATION(JD) TYPE (SelectOne) I am requesting that the Corps provide a preliminaryJDfor the property identified herein. 5 A Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (PJD) provides an indication that there may be “waters of the United States” or “navigable waters of the United States”on a property. PJDsare sufficient as thebasis for permit decisions. For the purposes of permitting, all waters and wetlands on the property will be treated as if they are jurisdictional “waters of the United States”. PJDs cannot be appealed(33 C.F.R. 331.2); however, a PJD is “preliminary” in the sense that an approved JD can be requestedat any time. PJDs do not expire. I am requesting that the Corps provide anapprovedJDfor the property identifiedherein. An Approved Jurisdictional Determination(AJD) is a determination that jurisdictional “waters of the UnitedStates” or “navigable waters of the United States”are either present or absent on a site. An approved JD identifies the limits of waters on a site determined to be jurisdictional under the Clean Water Act and/or Rivers and Harbors Act. Approved JDsare sufficient as the basis for permit decisions. AJDs are appealable(33 C.F.R. 331.2).The results of the AJD will be posted on the Corps website.A landowner, permit applicant, or other “affected party” (33 C.F.R. 331.2) who receives an AJD may rely upon the AJD for five years (subject to certain limited exceptions explained in Regulatory Guidance Letter 05- 02). I am unclear as to which JD I would like to request and require additional information to inform my decision.

North Arrow Graphical Scale Boundary of Review Area Date Location of data points for each Wetland Determination Data Formor tributary assessment reach. For Approved Jurisdictional Determinations: Jurisdictional wetland features should be labeled as Wetland Waters of the US, 404 wetlands, etc. Please include the acreage of these features. Jurisdictional non-wetland features (i.e. tidal/navigable waters, tributaries, impoundments) should be labeled as Non-Wetland Waters of the US, stream, tributary, open water, relatively permanent water, pond, etc. Please include the acreage or linear length of each of these features as appropriate. Isolated waters, waters that lack a significant nexus to navigable waters, or non- jurisdictional upland features should be identified as Non-Jurisdictional. Please include a justification in the label regarding why the feature is non-jurisdictional (i.e. “Isolated”, “No Significant Nexus”, or “Upland Feature”). Please include the acreage or linear length of these features as appropriate. For Preliminary Jurisdictional Determinations: Wetland and non-wetland features should not be identified as Jurisdictional, 404, Waters of the United States, or anything that implies jurisdiction. These features can be identified as Potential Waters of the United States, Potential Non-wetland Waters of the United States, wetland, stream, open water, etc. Please include the acreage and linear length of these features as appropriate.
