Public Notices

Under the Corps' Regulatory Program, a public notice is the primary method for advising all interested parties of a proposed activity for which a permit is sought. Soliciting comments and information necessary to evaluate the probable impacts on the public interest. Public notices are also published to inform the public about new or proposed regulations, policies, guidance or permit procedures.

Public Notices published by the Sacramento District under the Regulatory Program are posted on this page. Once a public notice is available on-line, an email notification is sent to individuals on the appropriate mailing list.

Comments are due by the expiration date of the public notice.  Only comments submitted by email or in hard copy format through a delivery service, such as the U.S. Postal Service, can be accepted.   Comments must be submitted to the address listed in the public notice.

The workshop is open to all interested parties, including the regulated public, consultants, environmental organizations, and federal, state, and local agencies. 

This free workshop will focus on Aquatic Resource Delineations and, while open to the public, is geared to wetland consultants who perform field delineations. We will discuss proper field protocol including ordinary high water mark (OHWM), aquatic resource types, wetland data sample locations, and completion of wetland data sheets focusing on plants, soils, and hydrology. Advanced questions are encouraged and may be sent to Susan.Nall@usace.army.mil.
