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.

    Use of Functional or Condition Assessments in California To help standardize and streamline the evaluation of aquatic resources and associated mitigation under their Regulatory programs, the three Corps Districts in California (Sacramento, San Francisco and Los Angeles) strongly encourage the use of functional or condition assessment tools, where they are available. For most individual or substantial impact (e.g., greater than ½ acre or 300 linear feet of streambed) permit actions or mitigation credit proposals, a Level 2 assessment such as CRAM or HGM may be appropriate. CRAM is a standardized, condition assessment tool for rapidly assessing the ecological health of wetlands and riparian habitats in California. Information on CRAM, its application, appropriate/inappropriate uses, training and status of individual modules by wetland or system type can be found at: http://www.cramwetlands.org/. Information on existing HGM Guidebooks and those under development can be found at: http://el.erdc.usace.army.mil/wetlands/hgmhp.html
