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 Conservation Fund is proposing the AR-5, 6,7 and 8 compensatory mitigation sites. The purpose of the preservation is to protect high value aquatic resources, and to help maintain the ecological function of the Kobuk River, Tagagawik River, Aukulak Lagoon and the Kilikmak Creek watersheds. The goal of the preservation is to provide compensatory mitigation for impacts to aquatic sites authorized by Department of the Army permits in The Conservation Fund’s Arctic Service Area. Factors considered in the selection of this site included the presence of high quality aquatic resources, priority lands, the presence of threats to the aquatic resources, and the practicability of self-sustaining preservation. The AR-5 property is located on the Kobuk River in Kobuk Valley National Park and Wilderness. The proposed mitigation site is approximately 159.98 acres in size and is proposed to be preserved as part of Kobuk Valley National Park and Wilderness. The AR-6 property is located west of the Tagagawik River in the Selawik National Wildlife Refuge. The proposed mitigation site is approximately 159.99 acres in size and is proposed to be preserved as part of Selawik National Wildlife Refuge. The AR-7 property is located on the Chukchi Sea in Cape Krusenstern National Monument. The proposed mitigation site is approximately 119.96 acres in size and will is proposed to be preserved as part of the Cape Krusenstern National Monument. The AR-8 property is located on the Chukchi Sea in Cape Krusenstern National Monument. The proposed mitigation site is approximately 159.98 acres in size and is proposed to be preserved as part of Cape Krusenstern National Monument.
