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.

PROPOSED WORK: To construct a paved taxiway-access road, hangars, pad apron, linear utilities (sewer and water), and perimeter drainage swale. Work would require placement of 12,517 cubic yards (cy) of classified fill in 4.51 acres of palustrine wetlands. The installation of linear utilities would result in temporary impacts to wetlands.

  • POA-2021-00192-M1 Smith and Inmachuk Rivers PN

    Expiration date: 7/16/2025

    Mr. William Sexton, Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (ADOT&PF), stated the purpose is to request a time extension and add two material sites to Individual Permit POA-2021-00192, for the rehabilitation and access road improvements of the Deering Airport. The project purpose is also to bring the airport to current standards and criteria identified in the Alaska Plan, the Alaska Aviation System Plan, and current Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) design standards. PROPOSED WORK: The Applicant proposes to resurface the existing runway, rehabilitate runway embankments, replace the airport lighting, improve airport drainage, and construct a new access road to the airport with a bridge over Smith Creek. The new bridge would have earthen abutments and approaches on either side of Smith Creek. The new road would provide all season access to the Deering Airport. For this Permit Modification, updated design work has estimated that an additional 50,055 cubic yards of fill would be needed, bringing the total fill requirements for the project to 170,805 cy. All work would be performed in accordance with the enclosed plan (sheets 1-11), dated February 2025. Please contact Andrew Kastning at (907) 753-2554, toll free from within Alaska at (800) 478-2712, or by email at Andrew.C.Kastning@usace.army.mil if further information is desired concerning this public notice.

  • POA-2025-00109 St. Paul Harbor PN

    Expiration date: 7/31/2025

    Matt Holmstrom, City of Kodiak, stated the purpose is to renovate the existing St. Paul Harbor boat launch ramp to prolong its usable lifespan and provide continued access for the public. PROPOSED WORK: The existing launch ramp, including the ramp planks, foundation, abutment, floats, and anchor piles will be demolished. Construction activities will include a new reconstructed launch ramp that will be rotated 10 degrees northwest of the existing ramp orientation; this will reduce excavation near the toe of the new ramp and mitigate the need for future maintenance. A new pile-supported fish cleaning station platform structure will also be provided as part of the proposed project. The waste chute will be connected to a floating “humpy dumpster” sealed and enclosed waste container, which can be removed and transported to deeper waters outside of the harbor for disposal in accordance with federal, state, and local laws. All work would be performed in accordance with the enclosed plan (sheets 1-6), dated December 11, 2024. Please contact Matthew Brody at (907) 201-5023, or by email at Matthew.T.Brody@usace.army.mil if further information is desired concerning this public notice.

  • POA-2006-01418-M8 Tongass Narrows PN

    Expiration date: 7/28/2025

    Mr. Ethan Berto, Ketchikan Dock Company, LLC.; stated the purpose is to upgrade Berth IV so that it can safely accommodate a class of increasingly larger cruise ships docking in Ketchikan. Currently, Berth IV is unable to accommodate large, modern cruise ships built to support a significantly larger capacity of cruisers than those typically seen in Ketchikan at the of Berth IV’s 2007 construction. PROPOSED WORK: The proposed project would be the eighth (8) modification to the original permit. The applicant proposes to remove existing structures and expand the dock. The proposed project is anticipated to begin in January 2026, and construction would take three (3) to four (4) months to complete. Pile installation activities are expected to occur approximately 305 hours over 64 non-consecutive days. The total project timeline is not expected to last more than six (6) months. The construction timeline takes into account the mobilization of materials and potential delays due to delayed material deliveries, equipment maintenance, inclement weather, and shutdowns that may occur to prevent impacts to protected species. All work would be performed in accordance with the enclosed plan (sheets 1-8), dated June 6, 2025. Please contact Hayley Farrer at (907) 753-2778, toll free from within Alaska at (800) 478-2712, or by email at Hayley.M.Farrer@usace.army.mil if further information is desired concerning this public notice.
