The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, has designated the re-issuance of the Nation Wide Permit program. Attached is a .pdf file of a public notice soliciting comments on the proposed updates. Nationwide permits are general permits issued on a nationwide basis to streamline the authorization of activities that result in no more than minimal individual and cumulative adverse environmental effects.
In reviewing the proposed Regional Conditions, they are especially seeking input on Regional Condition 2 (Aquatic Resources of Special Concern). Are there other resources that should be added to the list? If you do think other resources should be added, please provide a brief justification as to why the resource should be added along with a definition of the resource. Also, for those resources currently on the list, Portland District is working on developing definitions that are adequate to provide guidance to the public and our Project Managers on how to identify them. Public suggestions on these definitions are welcome.
Comments on regional issues relating to the proposed NWPs and regional conditions are to be sent to
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Portland District
