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.

POA-2013-286, Tok River, APMA 2626

Published July 10, 2017
Expiration date: 8/8/2017

Peak Gold, LLC's stated purpose is to define the potential extent of mineralization and associated economic value of that mineralization, on lands predominantly owned by the Tetlin Tribal Council.  The duration of the project is dependent on drilling results and delineation of economic mineral resources and is anticipated to continue for about 5 years.

LOCATION:  The project site is located within Section 7, T. 16 N., R. 13 E., Copper River Meridian; USGS Quad Map Tanacross A-4; Latitude 63.18259º N., Longitude 142.8923º W.; near Tok, Alaska.

PROPOSED WORK:  Discharge of fill material into approximately 5 acres of scrub-shrub and wetlands for the construction of permanent and temporary access roads and drill pads for mineral exploration.  The project boundary encompasses over 32,000 acres with about 76 percent of the areas classified as uplands; the majority of wetlands occurring in valley bottoms or north-facing slopes with permafrost.  The majority of the drilling areas are proposed in uplands.  Some drilling pads would require access through wetlands typically on north-facing slopes.  Construction of access roads and drill pads in wetlands would be done during the winter months to minimize disturbance.  Generally, reclamation on wetland sites would be initiated immediately following exploration drilling and the ground is still frozen.

All work would be performed in accordance with the enclosed plan (sheets 1-8), dated
June 22, 2017.

Comments on the described work, with the reference number, should reach this office no later than the expiration date of this Public Notice to become part of the record and be considered in the decision.  Please contact John Sargent at (907) 474-2166, by fax at (907) 753-5567, or by email at John.C.Sargent@usace.army.mil if further information is desired concerning this notice.
