The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Sacramento District, will hold its next Regulatory Program Workshop on Friday, October 10, 2014 from 1:30pm to 4:00 pm at the Sacramento District Headquarters in Room 814.
Originally established as the “Regulatory Information Forum” in 2006, the Regulatory Program Workshop is held quarterly to provide the public with information about Corps’ permit requirements and updates on program execution in the Sacramento District. The workshop is open to all interested parties including the regulated public, consultants, environmental organizations, and Federal, state and local agencies.
The October 10 workshop will focus on the Corps’ jurisdiction under Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. The workshop includes delineating wetlands and other aquatic resources and making jurisdictional determinations following the U.S. Supreme Court Decisions in Rapanos-Carabell and EPA/Corps guidance. Michael Finan, Sacramento District’s Wetland Specialist, will be present to answer questions.
There is no charge for the workshop but space is limited to 75 people, with no more than two people attending per organization. Register for the workshop by emailing Ms. Eileen Imamura at eileen.r.imamura@usace.army.mil with the subject line reading “Regulatory Program Workshop” and your name, organization name, email and telephone number in the body of the message. Your email should be received by September 15, 2014. Unfortunately, due to space and security issues, those who did not register will be turned away.
