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.

    Expiration date: 11/2/2022

    Tim Sponseller, Fort Wainwright Directorate of Public Works, 1046 Marks Road, Fort Wainwright, Alaska 99703, states the The applicant’s stated purpose for the Small Arms Complex (SAC) Expansion project is to expand training options to troops and allow for use by more units. The Grenade Launcher Range would expand training options for army troops; the current Hand Grenade Familiarization Range is located within the footprint of the proposed expansion of the Multi-Purpose Machine Gun Range (MPMG Range), necessitating relocation; the Anti-Tank Range needs to be expanded to meet TC 25-8 (Training Ranges) design standards; the MPMG Range expansion would allow for use by more than one unit and ease scheduling conflicts; the SAC gravel pit would be expanded to provide gravel for the expansion projects; and utility trenching is needed to install cables that would provide power and communications to the range support buildings. The U.S. Army Garrison Alaska proposes to expand the SAC over the next 10 years. Approximately 993,000 cubic yards of clean aggregate would be permanently discharged into approximately 20.7 acres of wetlands. In addition, temporary fill would be discharged into approximately 1.0 acre of wetlands while installing conduit for underground electric and communications lines. Staging for construction would not occur in wetlands. Five specific range construction projects have been identified that would require placement of fill in Waters of the US – the Grenade Launcher Range, the Hand Grenade Familiarization Range Relocation, the Anti-Tank Range, the Multi-Purpose Machine Gun (MPMG) Range, and Gravel Pit Expansion – plus associated utility trenching. The project site is located within Sections 19-20, 24, and 25, T. 1 S., R. 1 E., Fairbanks Meridian; USGS Quad Map Fairbanks D-2; Latitude 64.809841º N., Longitude 147.596619º W.; Small Arms Complex, Fort Wainwright, Alaska.

    Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities (DOT&PF), 2301 Peger Road, Fairbanks, Alaska 99709, states the purpose of this project is to address the need of a reliable route to the valley west of the City of Nenana. Access to the area is currently limited to approximately 12.1 miles of one-lane dirt road that is experiencing degradation due to springtime snow melt. The existing road also includes three bridges that require replacement. Extending west from the current road, access is only feasible by an All-terrain vehicle or snowmachine in the winter via a cleared line that extends to the Kantishna River floodplain. This portion of access is maintained by individuals who frequent the trail. The DOT&PF is proposing to construct the Nenana-Totchaket Road from the Nenana River to the Kantishna River. Project will include improving approximately 12 miles of existing road and constructing 20 miles of new road. The proposed Nenana-Totchaket Road Project is entirely State funded. The project site is located at Latitude 64.57553º N., Longitude -149.49913º W.; west of the City of Nenana, Alaska.
