Permit Application Public Notices

Public involvement is a key element of the Corps’ permit review process. During an application review, the USACE, Regulatory Division considers the views of other federal, state and local agencies, Native American tribes, interest groups, and the general public. The results of this careful public interest review are fair and equitable decisions that allow reasonable use of private property, infrastructure development, and growth of the economy, while offsetting the authorized impacts to the waters of the United States. This is accomplished through the posting of a Public Notice on the USACE, Regulatory Division's website and soliciting comments.

The USACE, Regulatory Division publishes monthly a list of individual permits issued, denied, or pending during the previous month. The list will identify each action by public notice number, name of applicant, and brief description of activity involved. It will also note the relevant environmental documents and the Statements of Findings (SOF) or Records of Decision (ROD) that are available upon written request through the FOIA process and, where applicable, upon the payment of administrative fees.

The applicant’s stated purpose is to “protect homes and property from erosion and loss, and to restore the gravel berm.”  The applicant is proposing to relocate the existing Beluga Slough outlet channel 1000 feet (ft) northwest of the existing channel.  The proposed project would require excavation of 2,000 cubic yards (cy) of material from below the mean high water mark (MHWM 17.3 ft) to construct a new outlet for Beluga Slough.  Additionally 4,000 cy of material from above the MHWM will be excavated for the construction of the new outlet channel.  The new outlet would be 10 ft wide at the base, by 500 ft long, and at the deepest point 8 ft deep with 10 to 1 side slopes at the completion of the construction.  The excavation would be conducted during low tides while the project location is dewatered.  The 2,200 cy of excavated material from the construction of the outlet would then be used to fill in the existing channel.  The existing channel to be filled is 1,000 ft long, 20 ft wide, and 3 ft deep.  The remaining 3,800 cy of material that would be excavated would be discharged below the high tide line (HTL 23.4 ft) over an area of 4 acres along the channel to be filled.  The material would be smoothed and contoured to match the existing beach configuration.  All work would be performed in accordance with the enclosed plan (sheets 1-4), dated January 18, 2015.  Please contact Andy Mitzel at (907) 753-2689, toll free from within Alaska at (800) 478-2712, by fax at (907) 420-0813, or by email at andy.mitzel@usace.army.mil if further information is desired concerning this notice.
