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.

Special Public Notices

POA-2015-471, Chena River

Published Oct. 27, 2015
Expiration date: 11/25/2015

The applicant, Mr. Richard Heieren, stated purpose is to place approximately 1,135 cubic yards of gravel fill material into

approximately 0.7 acres of wetlands as a part of the construction of 3.6 mile long access road in order to provide all-season

access to the applicant’s property. 

PROPOSED WORK:  The applicant proposes to place 1,135 cubic yards of gravel fill material into 0.7 acres of jurisdictional

wetlands as part of the construction of an access road.  In addition, two bridges, each spanning 35 feet, would be

constructed from flat rack shipping platforms.  One bridge is to be placed over Potlatch Creek and the other over an unnamed

creek. Bridge abutments would be above ordinary high water in uplands.  Culverts would be placed as necessary in wet areas in

order to maintain natural hydrologic flow.  Culverts are 12 inches in diameter by 30 feet long, and would be installed just

below the invert elevation of the ground surface at the crossing.  The total length of the road would be approximately 3.6

miles long. In addition, a 16 feet swath along the 60 feet road alignment in wetlands would be hand-cleared, leaving the

organic mat in place.  All work would be performed in accordance with the enclosed plan, (sheets 1-9), dated September 16,

2015.

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 Laurel A. Gale at (907) 474-
