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

These are public notices that involve the Regulatory program but which are generally not limited to one particular project. These would include public notices for the establishment or modification of Restricted Areas/Danger Zones, issuance/re-issuance of General Permits (Regional General Permits or Nationwide Permits), changes to guidance and policies, etc.

    Mr. James Byron, with Byron Construction, Post Office Box 678, Ward Cove, Alaska 99928; Phone: 907-254-1976; Email: jamesbyron42@yahoo.com, states that the project purpose is to expand Heron Lane so there would be road access to the lots on Loon Avenue so that homes can be built on the properties. The project site is located within Section 33, T. 74 S., R. 90 E., Copper River Meridian; USGS Quad Map Ketchikan B-6; Latitude 55.4107º N., Longitude 131.7543º W. To reach the site off of North Tongass Highway, turn onto Rhea Road, then turn right on Heron Lane. Follow Heron Lane to the end of the road and construction would begin where the road currently ends. The project location would be in Ward Cove, Alaska. Work being proposed is the discharge of 4300 cubic yards (CY) of fill material into 1.2 acres of waters of the U.S., including wetlands for residential development. The applicant would excavate overburden and construct a 26 foot wide road leading to four residential lots on Loon Ave. The total length of the road to be constructed would be 1200 linear feet with a total surface disturbance of approximately 0.73-acre. The overburden depth at the road centerline varies from roughly 12 inches to 60 inches. Once the road would be excavated to bed rock, it would then be filled with one foot minus pit run shot rock. The approximate fill height would vary from roughly 30 inches to 108 inches. It is anticipated that there would be five culvert crossings in the road for storm water runoff, but location and number would be evaluated once construction has begun. Along with the road, there would also be four residential lots developed. Each lot would consist of a driveway and house pad. Driveways would be approximately 14 feet wide by 40 feet long. House pads would be approximately 60 feet by 80 feet in order to create enough room for the structure and vehicles. All work would be performed in accordance with the enclosed plan (sheets 1-4), dated March 2018.
