By means of this public notice, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) is soliciting public comments on the use of the Colorado Mitigation Procedures (COMP) and the Colorado Stream Quantification Tool (CSQT).

The COMP establishes a predictable and consistent procedure for quantifying compensatory mitigation debits and credits.
