for which the additional insured is designated as a Named Insured.

which the additional insured has been added as an additional insured on other policies.

No person or organization is an insured with respect to the conduct of any current or past partnership, joint venture
or limited liability company that is not shown as a Named Insured in the Declarations or qualifies as an insured
under this provision.
L. FAILURE TO DISCLOSE HAZARDS AND PRIOR OCCURRENCES
Under Section IV – Commercial General Liability Conditions, the following is added to Condition 6.
Representations:
Your failure to disclose all hazards or prior “occurrences” existing as of the inception date of the policy
shall not prejudice the coverage afforded by this policy provided such failure to disclose all hazards or
prior “occurrences” is not intentional.

Under Section IV – Commercial General Liability Conditions, the following is added to Condition 2. Duties In
The Event of Occurrence, Offense, Claim Or Suit:

Section II – Who Is An Insured or a person who has been designated by them to receive reports of
“occurrences”, offenses, claims or “suits” shall have received such notice from the agent, servant or
“employee”.

CONTRACT OR AGREEMENT WITH YOU
Under Section IV – Commercial General Liability Conditions, the following is added to Condition 8. Transfer
Of Rights Of Recovery Against Others To Us:
We waive any right of recovery we may have against a person or organization because of payments we make for
injury or damage arising out of your ongoing operations or "your work" done under a contract with that person or

payments for damages because of “bodily injury” or “property damage” included in the “products-
completed operations hazard” will reduce the Products-Completed Operations Aggregate Limit, and not
reduce the General Aggregate Limit nor the Construction Project General Aggregate Limit.
D. If the applicable construction project has been abandoned, delayed, or abandoned and then restarted, or
if the authorized contracting parties deviate from plans, blueprints, designs, specifications or timetables,
the project will still be deemed to be the same construction project.
E. The provisions of Section III - Limits Of Insurance not otherwise modified by this endorsement shall
continue to apply.

(******)
The progress schedule for the entire project shall be submitted 7 calendar days prior to the
Preconstruction Conference. The schedule shall be prepared using the critical path method (CPM),
preferably using Microsoft Project or equivalent software. The schedule shall contain this
information, at a minimum:
1. Construction activities, in sufficient detail that all activities necessary to construct a complete
and functional project are considered. Any activity that has a scheduled duration exceeding 30
calendar days shall be subdivided until no sub-element has a duration exceeding 30 calendar
days.
The schedule shall clearly indicate the activities that comprise the critical path. For each activity
not on the critical path, the schedule shall show the float, or slack, time.
2. Procurement of material and equipment.
3. Submittals requiring review by Engineer. Submittal by Contractor and review by Engineer shall
be shown as separate activities.
4. Work to be performed by a subcontractor, agent, or any third party.
5. Allowances for delays that could result from normal inclement weather (time extensions due to
inclement weather will not be allowed).
6. Allowances for the time required by utilities (Owner’s and others) to locate, monitor, and adjust
their facilities as required.
Engineer may request Contractor to alter the progress schedule when deemed necessary in the opinion
of Engineer—in the interest of public safety and welfare or of Owner, or for coordination with any
other activity of other contractors, the availability of all or portions of the job site, or special
provisions of this Contract, or to reasonably meet the completion date of the project. Contractor shall
provide such revised schedule within 10 days of request.
If, at any time, in the opinion of Engineer, the progress of construction falls significantly behind
schedule, Contractor may be required to submit a plan for regaining progress and a revised schedule
indicating how the remaining work items will be completed within the authorized contract time.
Contractor shall promptly report to Engineer any conditions which Contractor feels will require
revision of the schedule and shall promptly submit proposed revisions in the progress schedule for
acceptance by Engineer. When such changes are accepted by Engineer, the revised schedule shall be
followed by Contractor.
Weekly Schedule. Contractor shall submit a weekly progress schedule to Engineer which sets forth
specific work to be performed the following week, and a tentative schedule for the second week.
Failure to Maintain Progress Schedule. Engineer will check actual progress of the work against the
progress schedule a minimum of two times per month. Failure, without just cause, to maintain
progress in accordance with the approved schedule shall constitute a breach of Contract. If, through
no fault of Contractor, the proposed construction schedule cannot be met, Engineer will require
Contractor to submit a revised schedule to Engineer for acceptance. The approved revisions will
thereafter, in all respects, apply in lieu of the original schedule.
Failure of Contractor to follow the progress schedule submitted and accepted, including revisions
thereof, shall relieve Owner of any and all responsibility for furnishing and making available all or
any portion of the job site, and will relieve Owner of any responsibility for delays to Contractor in the
performance of the work.
The cost of preparing the progress schedule, any supplementary progress schedules, and weekly
schedules shall be considered incidental to the Contract and no other compensation shall be made.
1-08.4 Notice to Proceed and Prosecution of the Work
Section 1-08.4 is supplemented as follows:
(******)
H:\File Sys\SWP - Surface Water Projects\SWP-27 - Surface Water Projects (CIP)\27-2057 MAPLEWOOD BASIN\2019
Pond Cleaning\1601 SPECS-2019\26-SPECIAL PROV-2006v02 Maplewd.doc Page 37
Notice to Proceed will be given after the contract has been executed and the contract bond and
evidence of insurances have been approved and filed by the Owner. The Contractor shall not
commence the Work until the Notice to Proceed has been given by the Engineer. The Contractor shall
commence construction activities on the Project Site within ten days of the Notice to Proceed Date.
The Work thereafter shall be prosecuted diligently, vigorously, and without unauthorized interruption
until physical completion of the work. There shall be no voluntar y shutdowns or slowing of
operations b the Contractor without prior approval of the Engineer. Such approval shall not relieve the
Contractor from the Contractual obligation to complete the work within the prescribed Contract Time.
1-08.5 Time For Completion
The first five paragraphs of Section 1-08.5 are deleted and replaced with the following:
(******)
The Work shall be physically completed in its entirety within the time specified in the Contract
Documents or as extended by the Engineer. The Contract Time will be stated in “working days”, shall
begin on the Notice To Proceed Date, and shall end on the Contract Completion Date.
A nonworking day is defined as a Saturday, a Sunday, a day on which the contract specifically
suspends work, or one of these holidays: January 1, Memorial Day, July 4, Labor Day, November 11,
Thanksgiving Day, the day after Thanksgiving, and Christmas Day. The day before Christmas shall be
a holiday when Christmas Day occurs on a Tuesday or Friday. The day after Christmas shall be a
holiday when Christmas Day occurs on a Monday, Wednesday, or Thursday. When Christmas Day
occurs on a Saturday, the two preceding working days shall be observed as holidays. When
Christmas day occurs on a Sunday, the two working days following shall be observed as holidays.
When holidays other than Christmas fall on a Saturday, the preceding Friday will be counted as a
non-working day and when they fall on a Sunday the following Monday will be counted as a non-
working day. The Contract Time has been established to allow for periods of normal inclement
weather which, from historical records, is to be expected during the Contract Time, and during which
periods, work is anticipated to be performed. Each successive working day, beginning with the Notice
to Proceed Date and ending with the Physical Completion Date, shall be charged to the Contract Time
as it occurs except a day or part of a day which is designated a nonworking day or an Engineer
determined unworkable day.
The Engineer will furnish the Contractor a weekly report showing (1) the number of working days
charged against the Contract Time for the preceding week; (2) the Contract Time in working days; (3)
the number of working days remaining in the Contract Time; (4) the number of nonworking days; and
(5) any partial or whole days the Engineer declared unworkable the previous week. This weekly
report will be correlated with the Contractor’s current approved progress schedule. If the Contractor
elects to work 10 hours a day and 4 days a week (a 4-10 schedule) and the fifth day of the week in
which a 4-10 shift is worked would ordinarily be charged as a working day then the fifth day of that
week will be charged as a working day whether or not the Contractor works on that day.
The Contractor will be allowed 10 calendar days from the date of each report in which to file a
written protest of an alleged discrepancy in the Contract Time as reported. Otherwise, the report will
be deemed to have been accepted by the Contractor as correct.
The requirements for scheduling the Final Inspection and establishing the Substantial Completion,
Physical Completion, and Completion Dates are specified in Sections 1-05.11 and 1-05.12.
Revise the seventh paragraph to read:
(******)
The Engineer will give the Contractor written notice of the completion date of the Contract after all
the Contractor’s obligations under the Contract have been performed by the Contractor. The
following events must occur before the Completion Date can be established:
1. The physical Work on the project must be complete; and
2. The Contractor must furnish all documentation required by the Contract and required by law, to
allow the Contracting Agency to process final acceptance of the Contract. The following

documents must be received by the Project Engineer prior to establishing a completion date:
a. Certified Payrolls (Federal-aid Projects)
b. Material Acceptance Certification Documents
c. Annual Report of Amounts Paid as MBE/WBE Participants or Quarterly Report of
Amounts Credited as DBE Participation, as required by the Contract Provisions.
d. FHWA 47 (Federal-aid Projects)
e. Final Contract Voucher Certification
f. Property owner releases per Section 1-07.24
Section 1-08.5 is supplemented as follows:
(******)
Within 10 calendar days after execution of the Contract by the Contracting Agency, Contractor shall
provide the Contracting Agency with copies of purchase orders for all equipment items deemed
critical by the Contracting Agency, including but not limited to signal controller materials, lighting
standards, and signal standards required for the physical completion of the contract. Such purchase
orders shall disclose the estimated delivery dates for the equipment.
All items of work which can be performed without delivery of the critical items shall start and be
completed as soon as possible. At that time, Engineer may suspend the work upon request of
Contractor until the critical items are delivered to Contractor, if the Contracting Agency received a
purchase order within 10 calendar days after execution of the Contract by the Contracting Agency.
Contractor will be entitled to only one such suspension of time during the performance of the work
and during such suspension shall not perform any additional work on the project. Upon delivery of
the critical items, contract time will resume and continue to be charged in accordance with Section 1-
08.
1-08.6 Suspension of Work
Section 1-08.6 is supplemented as follows:
(******)
Owner may at any time suspend the work, or any part thereof, by giving notice to Contractor in
writing. The work shall be resumed by Contractor within 14 calendar days after the date fixed in the
written notice from Owner to Contractor to do so.
Contractor shall not suspend work under the Contract without the written order of Owner.
If it has been determined that Contractor is entitled to an extension of time, the amount of such
extension shall be only to compensate for direct delays and shall be based upon Contract or's
diligently pursuing the work at a rate not less than that which would have been necessary to complete
the original Contract Work on time.
1-08.7 Maintenance During Suspension
Revise the second paragraph to read:
(******)
At no expense to the Contracting Agency, the Contractor shall provide through the construction area a
safe, smooth, and unobstructed roadway, sidewalk, driveway, and path for public use during
suspension (as required in Section 1-07.23 or the Special Provisions). This may include a temporary
road or detour.
1-08.9 Liquidated Damages
Section 1-08.9 is supplemented as follows:
(******)
In addition, Contractor shall compensate Owner for actual engineering inspection and supervision
costs and any other expenses and legal fees incurred by Owner as a result of such delay. Such labor
costs will be billed to Contractor at actual costs, including administrative overhead costs.

In the event that Owner is required to commence any lawsuit in order to enforce any provision of this
Contract or to seek redress for any breach thereof, Owner shall be entitled to recover its costs,
including reasonable attorneys fees, from Contractor.
1-08.11 Contractor's Plant and Equipment
Section 1-08.11 is a new Section:
(******)
The contractor alone shall at all times be responsible for the adequacy, efficiency, and sufficiency of
his and his subcontractor's plant and equipment. The Owner shall have the right to make use of the
contractor's plant and equipment in the performance of any work on the site of the work.
The use by the Owner of such plant and equipment shall be considered as extra work and paid for
accordingly.
Neither the Owner nor the engineer assumes any responsibility, at any time, for the security of the site
from the time contractor's operations have commenced until final acceptance of the work by the
engineer and the Owner. The contractor shall employ such measures as additional fencing,
barricades, and watchmen service, as he deems necessary for the public safety and for the protection
of the site and his plant and equipment. The Owner will be provided keys for all fenced, secured
areas.
1-08.12 Attention to Work
Section 1-08.12 is a new section:
(******)
The contractor shall give his personal attention to and shall supervise the work to the end that it shall
be prosecuted faithfully, and when he is not personally present on the work site, he shall at all times
be represented by a competent superintendent who shall have full authority to execute the same, and
to supply materials, tools, and labor without delay, and who shall be the legal representative of the
contractor. The contractor shall be liable for the faithful observance of any instructions delivered to
him or to his authorized representative.
1-09 MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT
1-09.3 Scope of Payment
Section 1-09.3 is supplemented by adding the following:
(******)
Unless modified otherwise in the Contract Provisions, the Bid Items listed or referenced in the
“Payment” clause of each Section of the Standard Specifications, will be the only items for which
compensation will be made for the Work described in or specified in that particular Section when the
Contractor performs the specified Work. Should a Bid Item be listed in a “Payment” clause but not in
the Proposal Form, and Work for that item is performed by the Contractor and the work is not stated
as included in or incidental to a pay item in the contract and is not work that would be required to
complete the intent of the Contract per Section 1-04.1, then payment for that Work will be made as
for Extra Work pursuant to a Change Order.
The words “Bid Item,” “Contract Item,” and “Pay Item,” and similar terms used throughout the
Contract Documents are synonymous.
If the “payment” clause in the Specifications relating to any unit Bid Item price in the Proposal Form
requires that said unit Bid Item price cover and be considered compensation for certain work or
material essential to the item, then the work or material will not be measured or paid for under any
other Unit Bid Item which may appear elsewhere in the Proposal Form or Specifications.
Pluralized unit Bid Items appearing in these Specifications are changed to singular form.
H:\File Sys\SWP - Surface Water Projects\SWP-27 - Surface Water Projects (CIP)\27-2057 MAPLEWOOD BASIN\2019
Pond Cleaning\1601 SPECS-2019\26-SPECIAL PROV-2006v02 Maplewd.doc Page 40
Payment for Bid Items listed or referenced in the “Payment” clause of any particular Section of the
Specifications shall be considered as including all of the Work required, specified, or described in that
particular Section. Payment items will generally be listed generically in the Specifications, and
specifically in the bid form. When items are to be “furnished” under one payment item and “installed”
under another payment item, such items shall be furnished FOB project site, or, if specified in the
Special Provisions, delivered to a designated site. Materials to be “furnished,” or “furnished and
installed” under these conditions, shall be the responsibility of the Contractor with regard to storage
until such items are incorporated into the Work or, if such items are not to be incorporated into the
work, delivered to the applicable Contracting Agency storage site when provided for in the
Specifications. Payment for material “furnished,” but not yet incorporated into the Work, may be
made on monthly estimates to the extent allowed.
1-09.7 Mobilization
Section 1-09.7 is supplemented as follows:

furnished by Owner.
This item shall also include providing Engineer and Inspectors with access to telephone, facsimile
machine, and copy machine during all hours Contractor is working on the jobsite; and a table and
chair for their use when needed.
Payment will be made for the following bid item(s):
“Mobilization,” Lump Sum.
1-09.9 Payments
Delete the third paragraph and replace it with the following:
(******)
Progress payments for completed Work and material on hand will be based upon progress estimates
prepared by the Engineer. A progress estimate cutoff date will be established at the preconstruction
meeting.
The initial progress estimate will be made not later than 30 days after the Contractor commences the
Work, and successive progress estimates will be made every month thereafter until the Completion
Date. Progress estimates made during progress of the Work are tentative, and made only for the
purpose of determining progress payment. The progress estimates are subject to change at any time
prior to the calculation of the final payment.
The value of the progress estimate will be the sum of the following:
1. Unit Price Items in the Bid Form – the approximate quantity of acceptable units of Work
completed multiplied by the unit price.
2. Lump Sum Items in the Bid Form – the estimated percentage complete multiplied by the Bid
Forms amount for each lump sum item, or per the schedule of values for that item.
3. Materials on Hand – 100 percent of invoiced cost of material delivered to job site or other storage
area approved by the Engineer.
4. Change Orders – entitlement for approved extra cost or completed extra Work as determined by
the Engineer.
Progress payments will be made in accordance with the progress estimate less:
1. Retainage per Section 1-09.9(1);
2. The amount of Progress Payments previously made; and
3. Funds withheld by the Contracting Agency for disbursement in accordance with the Contract
H:\File Sys\SWP - Surface Water Projects\SWP-27 - Surface Water Projects (CIP)\27-2057 MAPLEWOOD BASIN\2019
Pond Cleaning\1601 SPECS-2019\26-SPECIAL PROV-2006v02 Maplewd.doc Page 41
Documents.
Progress payments for Work performed shall not be evidence of acceptable performance or an
admission by the Contracting Agency that any Work has been satisfactorily completed.
Payments will be made by check or electronic transfer, issued by the Contracting Agency’s fiscal
officer, against the appropriate fund source for the project. Payments received on account of Work
performed by a subcontractor are subject to the provisions of RCW 39.04.250.
Section 1-09.9 is supplemented as follows:
(******)
Applications for payment shall be itemized and supported to the extent required by the Engineer by
receipts or other vouchers showing payment for materials and labor, payments to subcontractors, and
other such evidence of the Contractor's right to payment as the Engineer may direct, including “red
line” as-built drawings showing work installed by the contractor during the progress payment period.
The Contractor shall submit a progress report with each monthly request for a progress payment. The
progress report shall indicate the estimated percent complete for each activity listed on the progress
schedule (see Section 1-08.3) and a revised and updated schedule to reflect the most current project
completion date.
1-09.9(1) Retainage
Section 1-09.9(1) is supplemented as follows:
(******)
The retained amount shall be released as stated in the Standard Specifications if no claims have been
filed against such funds as provided by law and if Owner has no unsatisfied claims against Contractor.
In the event claims are filed, Owner shall withhold, until such claims are satisfied, a sum sufficient to
satisfy all claims and to pay attorney's fees. In addition, Owner shall withhold such amount as is
required to satisfy any claims by Owner against Contractor, until such claims have been finally
settled.
Neither the final payment nor any part of the retained percentage shall become due until Contractor, if
requested, delivers to Owner a complete release of all liens arising out of this Contract, or receipts in
full in lieu thereof, and, if required in either case, an affidavit that so far as Contractor has knowledge
or information, the release and receipts include all labor and materials for which a lien could be filed:
but Contractor may, if any subcontractor refuses to furnish a release or receipt in full, furnish a bond
satisfactorily to Engineer to indemnify Owner against the lien. If any lien remains unsatisfied after all
payments are made, Contractor shall reimburse to Owner all monies that the latter may be compelled
to pay in discharging such lien, including all costs and reasonable engineer's and attorney's fees.
1-09.9(2) Contracting Agency’s Right to Withhold and Disburse Certain Amounts
Section 1-09.9(2) is a new section:
(******)
In addition to monies retained pursuant to RCW 60.28 and subject to RXW 39.04.250, RCW 39.12
and RCW 39.76, the Contractor authorizes the Engineer to withhold progress payments due or deduct
an amount from any payment or payments due the Contractor which, in the Engineer’s opinion, may
be necessary to cover the Contracting Agency’s costs for or to remedy the following situations:
1. Damage to another contractor when there is evidence thereof and a claim has been filed.
2. Where the Contractor has not paid fees or charges to public authorities of municipalities
which the contractor is obligated to pay.

to the Contractor for such payment make in good faith.
1-09.9(3) Final Payment
Section 1-09.9(2) is a new section:
(******)
Upon Acceptance of the Work by the Contracting Agency the final amount to be paid the Contactor
will be calculated based upon a Final Progress Estimate made by the Engineer. Acceptance by the
Contractor of the Final Payment shall be and shall operate as a release:
1. to the Contracting Agency of all claims and all liabilities of the Contractor, other than claims
in stated amounts as may be specifically excepted in writing by the Contractor;
2. for all things done or furnished in connection with the Work;
3. for every act and neglect by the Contracting Agency; and
4. for all other claims and liability relating to or arising out of the Work.
A payment (monthly, final, retainage, or otherwise) shall not release the Contractor or the
Contractor’s Surety from any obligation required under the terms of the Contract Documents or the
Contract Bond; nor shall such payment constitute a waiver of the Contracting Agency’s ability to
investigate and act upon findings of non-compliance with the WMBE requirements of the Contract;
H:\File Sys\SWP - Surface Water Projects\SWP-27 - Surface Water Projects (CIP)\27-2057 MAPLEWOOD BASIN\2019
Pond Cleaning\1601 SPECS-2019\26-SPECIAL PROV-2006v02 Maplewd.doc Page 43
nor shall such payment preclude the Contracting Agency from recovering damages, setti ng penalties,
or obtaining such other remedies as may be permitted by law.
Before the Work will be accepted by the Contracting Agency, the Contractor shall submit an affidavit,
on the form provided by the Engineer, of amounts paid to certified disadvantaged (DB), minority
(MBE) or women business enterprises (WBE) participating in the Work. Such affidavit shall certify
the amounts paid to the DB, MBE or WBE subcontractors regardless of tier.
On Federally-funded projects the Contractor may also be required to execute and furnish the
Contracting Agency an affidavit certifying that the Contractor has not extended any loans, gratuity or
gift and money pursuant to Section 1-07.19 of these Specifications.
If the Contractor fails, refuses, or is unable to sign and return the Final Progress Estimate or any other
documents required for the final acceptance of the contract, the Contracting Agency reserves the right
to establish a completion date and unilaterally accept the contract. Unilateral acceptance will occur
only after the Contractor has been provided the opportunity, by written request from the Engineer, to
voluntarily submit such documents, If voluntary compliance is not achieved, formal notification of
the impending unilateral acceptance will be provided by certified letter from the Engineer to the
Contractor which will provide 30 calendar days for the Contractor to submit the necessary documents.
The 30-calendar day deadline shall begin on the date of the postmark of the certified letter from the
Engineer requesting the necessary documents. This reservation by the Contracting Agency to
unilaterally accept the contract will apply to contracts that are completed in accordance with Section
1-08.5 of for contracts that are terminated in accordance with Section 1 -08.10. Unilateral acceptance
of the contract by the Contracting Agency does not in any way relieve the Contractor of the
provisions under contract or of the responsibility to comply with all laws, ordinances, and regulations
– Federal, State, or local – that affect the contract. The dated the Contraction Agency unilaterally
signs the Final Progress Estimate constitutes the final acceptance date (Section 1-05.12).

Bid Item A-3 Construct Bypass Dam, Divert Creek, Rescue Fish, and Drain Sediment
Basin (LS)
This items includes all work needed for construction of temporary bypass dam and second
dam, diversion of the creek from the work areas, draining the sediment basin, and
coordination with adjacent private property owner regarding water supply to a private fish
pond. See the description and photos of 1999 cleaning for an example of the work and
techniques needed.
During all work at least 3/4 of the flow shall be kept moving downstream at all times so the
creek is not dewatered and fish life is not adversely affected while work is occurring.
Upstream Bypass Dam and Creek Diversion
The upstream bypass dam will be constructed upstream of the sediment basin, next to the
18-inch bypass inlet. The bypass dam will divert the entire flow from the creek into the 18-
inch bypass pipe to prevent water from flowing to the sediment basin. The bypass dam will
be at least as high as the top of the bypass pipe plus 3 inches.
Materials to be used for the bypass dam shall include, but be not limited to concrete blocks,
media bags, sandbags, and plastic sheeting, keyed into the creek bed to limit potential
underflow. The contractor may propose other material for the bypass dam as long as it
meets needs for a dam and complies with the permit requirements. Dirt fill shall not be used
to construct the bypass dam.
A second dam, plastic sheeting, portable sump pump downstream of the bypass dam shall
be installed and used to collect any water running under the bypass dam and redirect it back
H:\File Sys\SWP - Surface Water Projects\SWP-27 - Surface Water Projects (CIP)\27-2057 MAPLEWOOD BASIN\2019 Pond

Section 1-09.14 Bid Items, Page 5 of 16
into the bypass pipe. Pumping shall be required 24-hours a day to keep water from flowing
to the sediment basin
The work shall be planned and executed so the temporary bypass dam is completed early in
the morning (approx. 10:00 am), and the remainder of the day will be used for draining the
sediment basin and fish rescue.
Drain Sediment Basin
After the bypass dam is installed and the creek is diverted, the sediment basin shall be
drained using the 8-inch valves in the concrete structures. Before draining starts the
Contractor will place plastic sheeting anchored by sandbags on the bottom of the basin, 5 to
6 feet out from the valves, to help reduce the amount of bottom sediment that may be stirred
up and discharged through the valves.
After the water is drained as low as the valves will allow, the Contractor shall use a portable
pump to completely dewater the sediment basin. The 8-inch underdrain may also be opened
to allow the sediment to dewater. If the water from the valves is too silty to discharge to the
creek other means may be used to dewater the sediment. The contractor shall not discharge
sediment laden water to the creek.
Fish Rescue
All fish life shall be rescued from the creek and sediment basin, and transferred to the
downstream creek per the HPA permit and requirements.
The City will have an environmental consultant perform fish rescue from the creek and
sediment basin. The contractor will remain onsite during the fish rescue to ensure that the
bypass dam is functioning properly. The contractor shall coordinate and provide assistance
to the environmental company for fish rescue as needed and directed. Typical assistance
may include providing a portable gas pump with a screen meeting the HPA requirements,
helping pump the basin dry, helping net any fish in the creek and sediment basin, hauling
buckets of fish as directed by the environmental consultant, and return fish to the
downstream creek.
Coordination with Private Property Owner
The private property owner (Mr. Casey McCarthy) on the east side of Maplewood Creek
operates a fishpond on his property. The Contractor will be responsible for coordinating with
Mr. McCarthy to keep sediment laden water from entering his fish pond while the basin is
being cleaned. The City will assist the Contractor with coordination by notifying Mr. McCarty
of the work prior to the anticipated start date.
During the maintenance period, the Contractor will be responsible for closing the inlet valve
(located on the east side of the overflow spillway) that supplies water to the McCarty fish
pond. The valve must be closed before dewatering begins to avoid discharge of any silt
laden water into the fish pond. After the inlet valve is close, Mr. McCarty will be responsible
for supplying water to his fish pond from the creek next to his property. He usually places a
small pump in the creek adjacent to his property. The Contractor will be responsible for not
disturbing Mr. McCarty’s pump, and notifying McCarty at least 24 hours before the work
starts.

truck and trailer combinations.
Contractor shall immediately clean any dirt or debris spilled in the golf course parking
lot and driving travel lanes.
Sediment removal and hauling shall comply with the Work Day Restrictions identified in
Bid Item A-1.
Sediment Basin
The accumulated sediment above the imported backfill layer shall be removed and disposed
of offsite. The sediment basin and channel at the north end of the basin have a layer of
imported backfill about 12-inch thick placed above a PVC liner. The imported backfill layer
is different from the accumulated sediment and it is possible to differentiate between the two
materials by sight and feel. The contractor shall use the sediment basin construction plans
and as-built plans to help locate the top of the 12-inch imported backfill layer.
Caution: in some areas the imported backfill layer may be only 2- to 3-inches thick.
The Contractor shall hand dig test holes to confirm the location and elevation of the backfill
layer and PVC liner as needed during construction. The Contractor shall also dig test holes
at various locations. Test holes are most likely needed at the edges of the basin where the
PVC liner is close to the surface. All costs to dig all test holes is incidental to this bid item.
The work includes cleaning the sediment out of the McCarty valve standpipe. The
contractor shall loosen the clamps holding the standpipe, remove it and cleanout any
sediment present. The replace and standpipe and tighten the clamps to hold it in place.
Upper Channel

Section 1-09.14 Bid Items, Page 7 of 16
The center section of the channel is approximately 8 to 12 feet wide, and has rock berms at
several locations along across the bottom of the channel and along the sides.
In the center of the channel sediment shall be removed to expose the top of the rock berms.
Along the sides sediment must be carefully removed from between the rock berms without
disturbing them. Approximately 18- to 24-inches of the rock berms should be exposed.
Some rocks may need to be adjusted to the berms to return them to the proper shape and
alignment.
The PVC liner is close to the top of backfill in this area so hand dug test holes may be
needed to verify the liner location. All adjustments for the rock berms, are considered
incidental. No extra payment will be made for any adjustments directed by the City.
PVC Liner
The contractor is responsible for protecting the PVC liner under the sediment basin and
upper channel during excavation, and is responsible for repairing any damage to the liner
caused by construction. Damage could occur by not hand digging test holes to confirm the
liner location, excavating too deep, and not properly protecting the liner from potential
damage from vehicle traffic.
Any major punctures or tears shall be repaired by seaming a new PVC patch over the
affected area in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendation and industry practice.
Seaming shall be done by a company with experience in PVC liner construction and
seaming. Minor tears may be repaired by other means (tape or gluing), if approved by the
City. All repair any damage to the liner resulting from construction shall be incidental. No
extra compensation will be made.
Sediment Disposal
The Contractor shall provide the disposal site per Standard Specifications 2-03.3(7) C.
All costs for hauling and disposal shall be included in the unit bid price. Excavated materials
shall be hauled to a waste site secured by the Contractor and shall be disposed of in such a
manner as to meet all requirements of state, county and municipal regulations regarding
health, safety and public welfare.
Before starting work the contractor shall identify all disposal sites that will be used, and
provide current copies of all applicable permits and licenses showing that the disposal sites
meet the applicable regulations for sediment disposal. The Contractor is responsible for any
material and environmental testing a disposal site may require.
The quantity estimates is approximately 1,000 cubic yards of sediment needed to be
removed for the project. The actual amount of sediment removed may vary from the
estimate. The lump sum bid price will not be adjusted if the actual quantity varies from the
estimate.
This item includes loading the material into vehicles and hauling offsite for disposal. All
costs for excavation, loading, hauling, and disposal shall be included in the bid price.
Measurement for this bid item shall be per lump sum.

basin and fish ladder, removing materials related to the installation of temporary bypass
dam and second dam, and restoring any banks and vegetation disturbed by the work.
The basin shall not be refilled until the as-built survey has been performed and the results
have been reviewed and approved by the City. If the City determines additional sediment
needs to be removed based on the survey results, the additional sediment shall be removed
and the area resurveyed at no extra cost to the City.
During the refilling process at least 3/4 the creek flow shall be kept flowing to the fish
channel on the golf course via the bypass pipe at all times. The Contractor shall plan the
work so that the basin will be filled overnight by allowing approximately 1/4 the flow into the
basin. After the majority of the basin is filled overnight, the temporary bypass dam and
second dam can be removed the next day.
The work shall include rebuilding and compacting the bank on the west side of the basin
where it was eroded by the creek. Dry granular material, 2-in and less in size, from the
sediment basin shall be set aside and used for the fill.
This item includes any and all work needed to restore the banks next to the sediment basin
and other areas after cleaning including but not limited to regrading the banks, replacing rip-
rap, grading, raking, and topsoil placement.
Measurement for this bid item shall be made per lump sum.

Renton, Washington 98057
Reference: NWS-2007-688
Renton, City of
(Maplewood Creek
Sediment Basin)
Dear Mr. Straka:
We have reviewed your application to annually for up to 5 years, install a temporary
diversion dam and flow splitter requiring 15 cubic yards of excavation, excavation of up to
1,200 cubic yards of accumulated sediment, and conduct minor maintenance activities such as
moving boulders, woody debris and vegetation, and the placement of up to 15 cubic yards of
downstream spawning gravel in the Maplewood Creek Sediment Basin near
Renton, King County, Washington. Based on the information you provided to us, Nationwide
Permit (NWP) 3, Maintenance and NWP 27, Aquatic Habitat Restoration, Establishment, and
Enhancement Activities (Federal Register January 6, 2017, Vol. 82, No. 4), authorizes your
proposal as depicted on the enclosed drawings dated February 1, 2018.
In order for this authorization to be valid, you must ensure the work is performed in
accordance with the enclosed NWP 3 and 27, Terms and Conditions and the following special
condition:
a. You must implement and abide by the Endangered Species Act (ESA) requirements
and/or agreements set forth in the Biological Evaluation (BE), dated June 7, 2012. The U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) made a determination of No Effect for National Marine
Fisheries Service (NMFS) species, specifically Puget Sound Chinook and Puget Sound
steelhead, as well as their critical habitat based on the BE and data provided by the Washington
State Department of Fish and Wildlife’s Salmon Scape web tool. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service (USFWS) provided the enclosed Letter of Concurrence (LOC) with a finding of
“may affect, not likely to adversely affect” for Bull Trout based on the BE on
-2-
November 28, 2018 (USFWS Reference Number 01EWFW00-2019-I-0071). Both agencies will
be informed of this permit issuance. Failure to comply with the commitments made in this
consultation constitutes non-compliance with the ESA and your U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
permit. The USFWS is the appropriate authority to determine compliance with ESA.
We have reviewed your project pursuant to the requirements of the Endangered Species Act,
the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act and the National Historic
Preservation Act. We have determined this project complies with the requirements of these laws
provided you comply with all of the permit general and special conditions.
As part of our permit application review process, we notified Native American tribes that
have an interest in this area. The Muckleshoot Tribe requested to receive copies of all Log and
Rock Movement and Fish Passage monitoring reports. Based on our coordination, you agreed to
provide copies of the monitoring reports to the Muckleshoot Tribe. Please submit the Log and
Rock Movement and Fish Passage monitoring reports to Ms. Karen Walter of the Muckleshoot
Tribe at Karen.walter@mucklshoot.nsn.us following completion of the authorized activity.
Please note that National General Condition 21, Discovery of Previously Unknown Remains
and Artifacts, found in the Nationwide Permit Terms and Conditions enclosure, details
procedures that must be followed should an inadvertent discovery occur. You must ensure that
you comply with this condition during the construction of your project.
The authorized work complies with the Washington State Department of Ecology’s
(Ecology) Water Quality Certification (WQC) requirements and Coastal Zone Management
(CZM) consistency determination response for this NWP. No further coordination with Ecology
for WQC and CZM is required.
You have not requested a jurisdictional determination for this proposed project. If you
believe the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers does not have jurisdiction over all or portions of your
project you may request a preliminary or approved jurisdictional determination (JD). If one is
requested, please be aware that we may require the submittal of additional information to
complete the JD and work authorized in this letter may not occur until the JD has been
completed.
Our verification of this NWP authorization is valid until March 18, 2022, unless the NWP is
modified, reissued, or revoked prior to that date. If the authorized work has not been completed
by that date and you have commenced or are under contract to commence this activity before
March 18, 2022, you will have until March 18, 2023, to complete the activity under the enclosed
terms and conditions of this NWP. Failure to comply with all terms and conditions of this NWP
verification invalidates this authorization and could result in a violation of Section 404 of the
-3-
Clean Water Act. You must also obtain all local, State, and other Federal permits that apply to
this project.
You are cautioned that any change in project location or plans will require that you submit a
copy of the revised plans to this office and obtain our approval before you begin work. Deviating
from the approved plans could result in the assessment of criminal or civil penalties.
Upon completing the authorized work, you must fill out and return the enclosed Certificate
of Compliance with Department of the Army Permit. Thank you for your cooperation during the
permitting process. We are interested in your experience with our Regulatory Program and
encourage you to complete a customer service survey. These documents and information about
our program are available on our website at www.nws.usace.army.mil, select “Regulatory
Branch, Permit Information” and then “Contact Us.” A copy of this letter with enclosures will
be furnished to Mr. Ken Srilofung of the City of Renton at ksrilofung@rentonwa.gov. If you
have any questions, please contact me at jenae.churchill@usace.army.mil or (206) 764-5527.

In addition to any special condition that may be required on a case-by-case basis by the District Engineer,
the following terms and conditions must be met, as applicable, for a Nationwide Permit (NWP)
authorization to be valid in Washington State.
A. DESCRIPTION OF AUTHORIZED ACTIVITIES
Maintenance. (a) The repair, rehabilitation, or replacement of any previously authorized, currently
serviceable structure or fill, or of any currently serviceable structure or fill authorized by 33 CFR 330.3,
provided that the structure or fill is not to be put to uses differing from those uses specified or
contemplated for it in the original permit or the most recently authorized modification. Minor deviations
in the structure's configuration or filled area, including those due to changes in materials, construction
techniques, requirements of other regulatory agencies, or current construction codes or safety standards
that are necessary to make the repair, rehabilitation, or replacement are authorized. This NWP also
authorizes the removal of previously authorized structures or fills. Any stream channel modification is
limited to the minimum necessary for the repair, rehabilitation, or replacement of the structure or fill; such
modifications, including the removal of material from the stream channel, must be immediately adjacent
to the project. This NWP also authorizes the removal of accumulated sediment and debris within, and in
the immediate vicinity of, the structure or fill. This NWP also authorizes the repair, rehabilitation, or
replacement of those structures or fills destroyed or damaged by storms, floods, fire or other discrete
events, provided the repair, rehabilitation, or replacement is commenced, or is under contract to
commence, within two years of the date of their destruction or damage. In cases of catastrophic events,
such as hurricanes or tornadoes, this two-year limit may be waived by the district engineer, provided the
permittee can demonstrate funding, contract, or other similar delays. (b) This NWP also authorizes the
removal of accumulated sediments and debris outside the immediate vicinity of existing structures (e.g.,
bridges, culverted road crossings, water intake structures, etc.). The removal of sediment is limited to the
minimum necessary to restore the waterway in the vicinity of the structure to the approximate dimensions
that existed when the structure was built, but cannot extend farther than 200 feet in any direction from the
structure. This 200 foot limit does not apply to maintenance dredging to remove accumulated sediments
blocking or restricting outfall and intake structures or to maintenance dredging to remove accumulated
sediments from canals associated with outfall and intake structures. All dredged or excavated materials
must be deposited and retained in an area that has no waters of the United States unless otherwise
specifically approved by the district engineer under separate authorization. (c) This NWP also authorizes
temporary structures, fills, and work, including the use of temporary mats, necessary to conduct the
maintenance activity. Appropriate measures must be taken to maintain normal downstream flows and
minimize flooding to the maximum extent practicable, when temporary structures, work, and discharges,
including cofferdams, are necessary for construction activities, access fills, or dewatering of construction
2
sites. Temporary fills must consist of materials, and be placed in a manner, that will not be eroded by
expected high flows. After conducting the maintenance activity, temporary fills must be removed in their
entirety and the affected areas returned to pre-construction elevations. The areas affected by temporary
fills must be revegetated, as appropriate. (d) This NWP does not authorize maintenance dredging for the
primary purpose of navigation. This NWP does not authorize beach restoration. This NWP does not
authorize new stream channelization or stream relocation projects. Notification: For activities authorized
by paragraph (b) of this NWP, the permittee must submit a pre-construction notification to the district
engineer prior to commencing the activity (see general condition 32). The pre-construction notification
must include information regarding the original design capacities and configurations of the outfalls,
intakes, small impoundments, and canals. (Authorities: Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899
and section 404 of the Clean Water Act (Sections 10 and 404)) Note: This NWP authorizes the repair,
rehabilitation, or replacement of any previously authorized structure or fill that does not qualify for the
Clean Water Act section 404(f) exemption for maintenance.
B. CORPS NATIONAL GENERAL CONDITIONS FOR ALL NWPs
To qualify for NWP authorization, the prospective permittee must comply with the following general
conditions, as applicable, in addition to any regional or case-specific conditions imposed by the division
engineer or district engineer. Every person who may wish to obtain permit authorization under one or
more NWPs, or who is currently relying on an existing or prior permit authorization under one or more
NWPs, has been and is on notice that all of the provisions of 33 CFR 330.1 through 330.6 apply to every
NWP authorization. Note especially 33 CFR 330.5 relating to the modification, suspension, or revocation
of any NWP authorization.
1. Navigation. (a) No activity may cause more than a minimal adverse effect on navigation. (b) Any
safety lights and signals prescribed by the U.S. Coast Guard, through regulations or otherwise, must be
installed and maintained at the permittee's expense on authorized facilities in navigable waters of the
United States. (c) The permittee understands and agrees that, if future operations by the United States
require the removal, relocation, or other alteration, of the structure or work herein authorized, or if, in the
opinion of the Secretary of the Army or his authorized representative, said structure or work shall cause
unreasonable obstruction to the free navigation of the navigable waters, the permittee will be required,
upon due notice from the Corps of Engineers, to remove, relocate, or alter the structural work or
obstructions caused thereby, without expense to the United States. No claim shall be made against the
United States on account of any such removal or alteration.
2. Aquatic Life Movements. No activity may substantially disrupt the necessary life cycle movements of
those species of aquatic life indigenous to the waterbody, including those species that normally migrate
through the area, unless the activity's primary purpose is to impound water. All permanent and temporary
crossings of waterbodies shall be suitably culverted, bridged, or otherwise designed and constructed to
maintain low flows to sustain the movement of those aquatic species. If a bottomless culvert cannot be
used, then the crossing should be designed and constructed to minimize adverse effects to aquatic life
movements.
3. Spawning Areas. Activities in spawning areas during spawning seasons must be avoided to the
maximum extent practicable. Activities that result in the physical destruction (e.g., through excavation,
fill, or downstream smothering by substantial turbidity) of an important spawning area are not authorized.
4. Migratory Bird Breeding Areas. Activities in waters of the United States that serve as breeding areas
for migratory birds must be avoided to the maximum extent practicable.
3
5. Shellfish Beds. No activity may occur in areas of concentrated shellfish populations, unless the activity
is directly related to a shellfish harvesting activity authorized by NWPs 4 and 48, or is a shellfish seeding
or habitat restoration activity authorized by NWP 27.
6. Suitable Material. No activity may use unsuitable material (e.g., trash, debris, car bodies, asphalt, etc.).
Material used for construction or discharged must be free from toxic pollutants in toxic amounts (see
section 307 of the Clean Water Act).
7. Water Supply Intakes. No activity may occur in the proximity of a public water supply intake, except
where the activity is for the repair or improvement of public water supply intake structures or adjacent
bank stabilization.
8. Adverse Effects From Impoundments. If the activity creates an impoundment of water, adverse effects
to the aquatic system due to accelerating the passage of water, and/or restricting its flow must be
minimized to the maximum extent practicable.
9. Management of Water Flows. To the maximum extent practicable, the pre-construction course,
condition, capacity, and location of open waters must be maintained for each activity, including stream
channelization, storm water management activities, and temporary and permanent road crossings, except
as provided below. The activity must be constructed to withstand expected high flows. The activity must
not restrict or impede the passage of normal or high flows, unless the primary purpose of the activity is to
impound water or manage high flows. The activity may alter the pre-construction course, condition,
capacity, and location of open waters if it benefits the aquatic environment (e.g., stream restoration or
relocation activities).
10. Fills Within 100-Year Floodplains. The activity must comply with applicable FEMA-approved state
or local floodplain management requirements.
11. Equipment. Heavy equipment working in wetlands or mudflats must be placed on mats, or other
measures must be taken to minimize soil disturbance.
12. Soil Erosion and Sediment Controls. Appropriate soil erosion and sediment controls must be used and
maintained in effective operating condition during construction, and all exposed soil and other fills, as
well as any work below the ordinary high water mark or high tide line, must be permanently stabilized at
the earliest practicable date. Permittees are encouraged to perform work within waters of the United
States during periods of low-flow or no-flow, or during low tides.
13. Removal of Temporary Fills. Temporary fills must be removed in their entirety and the affected areas
returned to pre-construction elevations. The affected areas must be revegetated, as appropriate.
14. Proper Maintenance. Any authorized structure or fill shall be properly maintained, including
maintenance to ensure public safety and compliance with applicable NWP general conditions, as well as
any activity-specific conditions added by the district engineer to an NWP authorization.
15. Single and Complete Project. The activity must be a single and complete project. The same NWP
cannot be used more than once for the same single and complete project.
16. Wild and Scenic Rivers. (a) No NWP activity may occur in a component of the National Wild and
Scenic River System, or in a river officially designated by Congress as a “study river” for possible
inclusion in the system while the river is in an official study status, unless the appropriate Federal agency
with direct management responsibility for such river, has determined in writing that the proposed activity
will not adversely affect the Wild and Scenic River designation or study status. (b) If a proposed NWP
4
activity will occur in a component of the National Wild and Scenic River System, or in a river officially
designated by Congress as a “study river” for possible inclusion in the system while the river is in an
official study status, the permittee must submit a pre-construction notification (see general condition 32).
The district engineer will coordinate the PCN with the Federal agency with direct management
responsibility for that river. The permittee shall not begin the NWP activity until notified by the district
engineer that the Federal agency with direct management responsibility for that river has determined in
writing that the proposed NWP activity will not adversely affect the Wild and Scenic River designation or
study status. (c) Information on Wild and Scenic Rivers may be obtained from the appropriate Federal
land management agency responsible for the designated Wild and Scenic River or study river (e.g.,
National Park Service, U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service). Information on these rivers is also available at: http://www.rivers.gov/.
17. Tribal Rights. No NWP activity may cause more than minimal adverse effects on tribal rights
(including treaty rights), protected tribal resources, or tribal lands.
18. Endangered Species. (a) No activity is authorized under any NWP which is likely to directly or
indirectly jeopardize the continued existence of a threatened or endangered species or a species proposed
for such designation, as identified under the Federal Endangered Species Act (ESA), or which will
directly or indirectly destroy or adversely modify the critical habitat of such species. No activity is
authorized under any NWP which “may affect” a listed species or critical habitat, unless ESA section 7
consultation addressing the effects of the proposed activity has been completed. Direct effects are the
immediate effects on listed species and critical habitat caused by the NWP activity. Indirect effects are
those effects on listed species and critical habitat that are caused by the NWP activity and are later in
time, but still are reasonably certain to occur. (b) Federal agencies should follow their own procedures for
complying with the requirements of the ESA. If pre-construction notification is required for the proposed
activity, the Federal permittee must provide the district engineer with the appropriate documentation to
demonstrate compliance with those requirements. The district engineer will verify that the appropriate
documentation has been submitted. If the appropriate documentation has not been submitted, additional
ESA section 7 consultation may be necessary for the activity and the respective federal agency would be
responsible for fulfilling its obligation under section 7 of the ESA. (c) Non-federal permittees must
submit a pre-construction notification to the district engineer if any listed species or designated critical
habitat might be affected or is in the vicinity of the activity, or if the activity is located in designated
critical habitat, and shall not begin work on the activity until notified by the district engineer that the
requirements of the ESA have been satisfied and that the activity is authorized. For activities that might
affect Federally-listed endangered or threatened species or designated critical habitat, the pre-construction
notification must include the name(s) of the endangered or threatened species that might be affected by
the proposed activity or that utilize the designated critical habitat that might be affected by the proposed
activity. The district engineer will determine whether the proposed activity “may affect” or will have “no
effect” to listed species and designated critical habitat and will notify the non-Federal applicant of the
Corps’ determination within 45 days of receipt of a complete pre-construction notification. In cases where
the non-Federal applicant has identified listed species or critical habitat that might be affected or is in the
vicinity of the activity, and has so notified the Corps, the applicant shall not begin work until the Corps
has provided notification that the proposed activity will have “no effect” on listed species or critical
habitat, or until ESA section 7 consultation has been completed. If the non-Federal applicant has not
heard back from the Corps within 45 days, the applicant must still wait for notification from the Corps.
(d) As a result of formal or informal consultation with the FWS or NMFS the district engineer may add
species-specific permit conditions to the NWPs. (e) Authorization of an activity by an NWP does not
authorize the “take” of a threatened or endangered species as defined under the ESA. In the absence of
separate authorization (e.g., an ESA Section 10 Permit, a Biological Opinion with “incidental take”
provisions, etc.) from the FWS or the NMFS, the Endangered Species Act prohibits any person subject to
the jurisdiction of the United States to take a listed species, where "take" means to harass, harm, pursue,
hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect, or to attempt to engage in any such conduct. The word
5
“harm” in the definition of “take'' means an act which actually kills or injures wildlife. Such an act may
include significant habitat modification or degradation where it actually kills or injures wildlife by
significantly impairing essential behavioral patterns, including breeding, feeding or sheltering.
(f) If the non-federal permittee has a valid ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) incidental take permit with an
approved Habitat Conservation Plan for a project or a group of projects that includes the proposed NWP
activity, the non-federal applicant should provide a copy of that ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) permit with the
PCN required by paragraph (c) of this general condition. The district engineer will coordinate with the
agency that issued the ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) permit to determine whether the proposed NWP activity
and the associated incidental take were considered in the internal ESA section 7 consultation conducted
for the ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) permit. If that coordination results in concurrence from the agency that
the proposed NWP activity and the associated incidental take were considered in the internal ESA section
7 consultation for the ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) permit, the district engineer does not need to conduct a
separate ESA section 7 consultation for the proposed NWP activity. The district engineer will notify the
non-federal applicant within 45 days of receipt of a complete pre-construction notification whether the
ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) permit covers the proposed NWP activity or whether additional ESA section 7
consultation is required. (g) Information on the location of threatened and endangered species and their
critical habitat can be obtained directly from the offices of the FWS and NMFS or their world wide web
pages at http://www.fws.gov/ or http://www.fws.gov/ipac and http://www.nmfs.noaa.gov/pr/species/esa/
respectively.
19. Migratory Birds and Bald and Golden Eagles. The permittee is responsible for ensuring their action
complies with the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. The
permittee is responsible for contacting appropriate local office of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to
determine applicable measures to reduce impacts to migratory birds or eagles, including whether
“incidental take” permits are necessary and available under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act or Bald and
Golden Eagle Protection Act for a particular activity.
20. Historic Properties. (a) In cases where the district engineer determines that the activity may have the
potential to cause effects to properties listed, or eligible for listing, in the National Register of Historic
Places, the activity is not authorized, until the requirements of Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act (NHPA) have been satisfied. (b) Federal permittees should follow their own procedures
for complying with the requirements of section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. If pre-
construction notification is required for the proposed NWP activity, the Federal permittee must provide
the district engineer with the appropriate documentation to demonstrate compliance with those
requirements. The district engineer will verify that the appropriate documentation has been submitted. If
the appropriate documentation is not submitted, then additional consultation under section 106 may be
necessary. The respective federal agency is responsible for fulfilling its obligation to comply with section
106. (c) Non-federal permittees must submit a pre-construction notification to the district engineer if the
NWP activity might have the potential to cause effects to any historic properties listed on, determined to
be eligible for listing on, or potentially eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places,
including previously unidentified properties. For such activities, the pre-construction notification must
state which historic properties might have the potential to be affected by the proposed NWP activity or
include a vicinity map indicating the location of the historic properties or the potential for the presence of
historic properties. Assistance regarding information on the location of, or potential for, the presence of
historic properties can be sought from the State Historic Preservation Officer, Tribal Historic Preservation
Officer, or designated tribal representative, as appropriate, and the National Register of Historic Places
(see 33 CFR 330.4(g)). When reviewing pre-construction notifications, district engineers will comply
with the current procedures for addressing the requirements of section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act. The district engineer shall make a reasonable and good faith effort to carry out
appropriate identification efforts, which may include background research, consultation, oral history
interviews, sample field investigation, and field survey. Based on the information submitted in the PCN
and these identification efforts, the district engineer shall determine whether the proposed NWP activity
6
has the potential to cause effects on the historic properties. Section 106 consultation is not required when
the district engineer determines that the activity does not have the potential to cause effects on historic
properties (see 36 CFR 800.3(a)). Section 106 consultation is required when the district engineer
determines that the activity has the potential to cause effects on historic properties. The district engineer
will conduct consultation with consulting parties identified under 36 CFR 800.2(c) when he or she makes
any of the following effect determinations for the purposes of section 106 of the NHPA: no historic
properties affected, no adverse effect, or adverse effect. Where the non-Federal applicant has identified
historic properties on which the activity might have the potential to cause effects and so notified the
Corps, the non-Federal applicant shall not begin the activity until notified by the district engineer either
that the activity has no potential to cause effects to historic properties or that NHPA section 106
consultation has been completed. (d) For non-federal permittees, the district engineer will notify the
prospective permittee within 45 days of receipt of a complete pre-construction notification whether
NHPA section 106 consultation is required. If NHPA section 106 consultation is required, the district
engineer will notify the non-Federal applicant that he or she cannot begin the activity until section 106
consultation is completed. If the non-Federal applicant has not heard back from the Corps within 45 days,
the applicant must still wait for notification from the Corps. (e) Prospective permittees should be aware
that section 110k of the NHPA (54 U.S.C. 306113) prevents the Corps from granting a permit or other
assistance to an applicant who, with intent to avoid the requirements of section 106 of the NHPA, has
intentionally significantly adversely affected a historic property to which the permit would relate, or
having legal power to prevent it, allowed such significant adverse effect to occur, unless the Corps, after
consultation with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP), determines that circumstances
justify granting such assistance despite the adverse effect created or permitted by the applicant. If
circumstances justify granting the assistance, the Corps is required to notify the ACHP and provide
documentation specifying the circumstances, the degree of damage to the integrity of any historic
properties affected, and proposed mitigation. This documentation must include any views obtained from
the applicant, SHPO/THPO, appropriate Indian tribes if the undertaking occurs on or affects historic
properties on tribal lands or affects properties of interest to those tribes, and other parties known to have a
legitimate interest in the impacts to the permitted activity on historic properties.
21. Discovery of Previously Unknown Remains and Artifacts. If you discover any previously unknown
historic, cultural or archeological remains and artifacts while accomplishing the activity authorized by this
permit, you must immediately notify the district engineer of what you have found, and to the maximum
extent practicable, avoid construction activities that may affect the remains and artifacts until the required
coordination has been completed. The district engineer will initiate the Federal, Tribal, and state
coordination required to determine if the items or remains warrant a recovery effort or if the site is
eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places.
22. Designated Critical Resource Waters. Critical resource waters include, NOAA-managed marine
sanctuaries and marine monuments, and National Estuarine Research Reserves. The district engineer may
designate, after notice and opportunity for public comment, additional waters officially designated by a
state as having particular environmental or ecological significance, such as outstanding national resource
waters or state natural heritage sites. The district engineer may also designate additional critical resource
waters after notice and opportunity for public comment. (a) Discharges of dredged or fill material into
waters of the United States are not authorized by NWPs 7, 12, 14, 16, 17, 21, 29, 31, 35, 39, 40, 42, 43,
44, 49, 50, 51, and 52 for any activity within, or directly affecting, critical resource waters, including
wetlands adjacent to such waters. (b) For NWPs 3, 8, 10, 13, 15, 18, 19, 22, 23, 25, 27, 28, 30, 33, 34, 36,
37, 38, and 54, notification is required in accordance with general condition 32, for any activity proposed
in the designated critical resource waters including wetlands adjacent to those waters. The district
engineer may authorize activities under these NWPs only after it is determined that the impacts to the
critical resource waters will be no more than minimal.
7
23. Mitigation. The district engineer will consider the following factors when determining appropriate and
practicable mitigation necessary to ensure that the individual and cumulative adverse environmental
effects are no more than minimal: (a) The activity must be designed and constructed to avoid and
minimize adverse effects, both temporary and permanent, to waters of the United States to the maximum
extent practicable at the project site (i.e., on site). (b) Mitigation in all its forms (avoiding, minimizing,
rectifying, reducing, or compensating for resource losses) will be required to the extent necessary to
ensure that the individual and cumulative adverse environmental effects are no more than minimal.
(c) Compensatory mitigation at a minimum one-for-one ratio will be required for all wetland losses that
exceed 1/10-acre and require pre-construction notification, unless the district engineer determines in
writing that either some other form of mitigation would be more environmentally appropriate or the
adverse environmental effects of the proposed activity are no more than minimal, and provides an
activity-specific waiver of this requirement. For wetland losses of 1/10-acre or less that require pre-
construction notification, the district engineer may determine on a case-by-case basis that compensatory
mitigation is required to ensure that the activity results in only minimal adverse environmental effects.
(d) For losses of streams or other open waters that require pre-construction notification, the district
engineer may require compensatory mitigation to ensure that the activity results in no more than minimal
adverse environmental effects. Compensatory mitigation for losses of streams should be provided, if
practicable, through stream rehabilitation, enhancement, or preservation, since streams are difficult-to-
replace resources (see 33 CFR 332.3(e)(3)). (e) Compensatory mitigation plans for NWP activities in or
near streams or other open waters will normally include a requirement for the restoration or enhancement,
maintenance, and legal protection (e.g., conservation easements) of riparian areas next to open waters. In
some cases, the restoration or maintenance/protection of riparian areas may be the only compensatory
mitigation required. Restored riparian areas should consist of native species. The width of the required
riparian area will address documented water quality or aquatic habitat loss concerns. Normally, the
riparian area will be 25 to 50 feet wide on each side of the stream, but the district engineer may require
slightly wider riparian areas to address documented water quality or habitat loss concerns. If it is not
possible to restore or maintain/protect a riparian area on both sides of a stream, or if the waterbody is a
lake or coastal waters, then restoring or maintaining/protecting a riparian area along a single bank or
shoreline may be sufficient. Where both wetlands and open waters exist on the project site, the district
engineer will determine the appropriate compensatory mitigation (e.g., riparian areas and/or wetlands
compensation) based on what is best for the aquatic environment on a watershed basis. In cases where
riparian areas are determined to be the most appropriate form of minimization or compensatory
mitigation, the district engineer may waive or reduce the requirement to provide wetland compensatory
mitigation for wetland losses. (f) Compensatory mitigation projects provided to offset losses of aquatic
resources must comply with the applicable provisions of 33 CFR part 332.
(1) The prospective permittee is responsible for proposing an appropriate compensatory mitigation
option if compensatory mitigation is necessary to ensure that the activity results in no more than
minimal adverse environmental effects. For the NWPs, the preferred mechanism for providing
compensatory mitigation is mitigation bank credits or in-lieu fee program credits (see 33 CFR
332.3(b)(2) and (3)). However, if an appropriate number and type of mitigation bank or in-lieu credits
are not available at the time the PCN is submitted to the district engineer, the district engineer may
approve the use of permittee-responsible mitigation. (2) The amount of compensatory mitigation
required by the district engineer must be sufficient to ensure that the authorized activity results in no
more than minimal individual and cumulative adverse environmental effects (see 33 CFR
330.1(e)(3)). (See also 33 CFR 332.3(f)). (3) Since the likelihood of success is greater and the
impacts to potentially valuable uplands are reduced, aquatic resource restoration should be the first
compensatory mitigation option considered for permittee-responsible mitigation. (4) If permittee-
responsible mitigation is the proposed option, the prospective permittee is responsible for submitting
a mitigation plan. A conceptual or detailed mitigation plan may be used by the district engineer to
make the decision on the NWP verification request, but a final mitigation plan that addresses the
applicable requirements of 33 CFR 332.4(c)(2) through (14) must be approved by the district engineer
8
before the permittee begins work in waters of the United States, unless the district engineer
determines that prior approval of the final mitigation plan is not practicable or not necessary to ensure
timely completion of the required compensatory mitigation (see 33 CFR 332.3(k)(3)). (5) If
mitigation bank or in-lieu fee program credits are the proposed option, the mitigation plan only needs
to address the baseline conditions at the impact site and the number of credits to be provided. (6)
Compensatory mitigation requirements (e.g., resource type and amount to be provided as
compensatory mitigation, site protection, ecological performance standards, monitoring requirements)
may be addressed through conditions added to the NWP authorization, instead of components of a
compensatory mitigation plan (see 33 CFR 332.4(c)(1)(ii)).
(g) Compensatory mitigation will not be used to increase the acreage losses allowed by the acreage limits
of the NWPs. For example, if an NWP has an acreage limit of 1/2-acre, it cannot be used to authorize any
NWP activity resulting in the loss of greater than 1/2-acre of waters of the United States, even if
compensatory mitigation is provided that replaces or restores some of the lost waters. However,
compensatory mitigation can and should be used, as necessary, to ensure that an NWP activity already
meeting the established acreage limits also satisfies the no more than minimal impact requirement for the
NWPs. (h) Permittees may propose the use of mitigation banks, in-lieu fee programs, or permittee-
responsible mitigation. When developing a compensatory mitigation proposal, the permittee must
consider appropriate and practicable options consistent with the framework at 33 CFR 332.3(b). For
activities resulting in the loss of marine or estuarine resources, permittee-responsible mitigation may be
environmentally preferable if there are no mitigation banks or in-lieu fee programs in the area that have
marine or estuarine credits available for sale or transfer to the permittee. For permittee-responsible
mitigation, the special conditions of the NWP verification must clearly indicate the party or parties
responsible for the implementation and performance of the compensatory mitigation project, and, if
required, its long-term management. (i) Where certain functions and services of waters of the United
States are permanently adversely affected by a regulated activity, such as discharges of dredged or fill
material into waters of the United States that will convert a forested or scrub-shrub wetland to a
herbaceous wetland in a permanently maintained utility line right-of-way, mitigation may be required to
reduce the adverse environmental effects of the activity to the no more than minimal level.
24. Safety of Impoundment Structures. To ensure that all impoundment structures are safely designed,
the district engineer may require non-Federal applicants to demonstrate that the structures comply with
established state dam safety criteria or have been designed by qualified persons. The district engineer may
also require documentation that the design has been independently reviewed by similarly qualified
persons, and appropriate modifications made to ensure safety.
25. Water Quality. Where States and authorized Tribes, or EPA where applicable, have not previously
certified compliance of an NWP with CWA section 401, individual 401 Water Quality Certification must
be obtained or waived (see 33 CFR 330.4(c)). The district engineer or State or Tribe may require
additional water quality management measures to ensure that the authorized activity does not result in
more than minimal degradation of water quality.
26. Coastal Zone Management. In coastal states where an NWP has not previously received a state coastal
zone management consistency concurrence, an individual state coastal zone management consistency
concurrence must be obtained, or a presumption of concurrence must occur (see 33 CFR 330.4(d)). The
district engineer or a State may require additional measures to ensure that the authorized activity is
consistent with state coastal zone management requirements.
27. Regional and Case-By-Case Conditions. The activity must comply with any regional conditions that
may have been added by the Division Engineer (see 33 CFR 330.4(e)) and with any case specific
conditions added by the Corps or by the state, Indian Tribe, or U.S. EPA in its section 401 Water Quality
Certification, or by the state in its Coastal Zone Management Act consistency determination.
9
28. Use of Multiple Nationwide Permits. The use of more than one NWP for a single and complete
project is prohibited, except when the acreage loss of waters of the United States authorized by the NWPs
does not exceed the acreage limit of the NWP with the highest specified acreage limit. For example, if a
road crossing over tidal waters is constructed under NWP 14, with associated bank stabilization
authorized by NWP 13, the maximum acreage loss of waters of the United States for the total project
cannot exceed 1/3-acre.
29. Transfer of Nationwide Permit Verifications. If the permittee sells the property associated with a
nationwide permit verification, the permittee may transfer the nationwide permit verification to the new
owner by submitting a letter to the appropriate Corps district office to validate the transfer. A copy of the
nationwide permit verification must be attached to the letter, and the letter must contain the following
statement and signature: “When the structures or work authorized by this nationwide permit are still in
existence at the time the property is transferred, the terms and conditions of this nationwide permit,
including any special conditions, will continue to be binding on the new owner(s) of the property. To
validate the transfer of this nationwide permit and the associated liabilities associated with compliance
with its terms and conditions, have the transferee sign and date below.”
_____________________________________________
(Transferee)

(Date)
30. Compliance Certification. Each permittee who receives an NWP verification letter from the Corps
must provide a signed certification documenting completion of the authorized activity and
implementation of any required compensatory mitigation. The success of any required permittee-
responsible mitigation, including the achievement of ecological performance standards, will be addressed
separately by the district engineer. The Corps will provide the permittee the certification document with
the NWP verification letter. The certification document will include: (a) A statement that the authorized
activity was done in accordance with the NWP authorization, including any general, regional, or activity-
specific conditions; (b) A statement that the implementation of any required compensatory mitigation was
completed in accordance with the permit conditions. If credits from a mitigation bank or in-lieu fee
program are used to satisfy the compensatory mitigation requirements, the certification must include the
documentation required by 33 CFR 332.3(l)(3) to confirm that the permittee secured the appropriate
number and resource type of credits; and (c) The signature of the permittee certifying the completion of
the activity and mitigation. The completed certification document must be submitted to the district
engineer within 30 days of completion of the authorized activity or the implementation of any required
compensatory mitigation, whichever occurs later.
31. Activities Affecting Structures or Works Built by the United States. If an NWP activity also requires
permission from the Corps pursuant to 33 U.S.C. 408 because it will alter or temporarily or permanently
occupy or use a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) federally authorized Civil Works project (a
“USACE project”), the prospective permittee must submit a pre-construction notification. See paragraph
(b)(10) of general condition 32. An activity that requires section 408 permission is not authorized by
NWP until the appropriate Corps office issues the section 408 permission to alter, occupy, or use the
USACE project, and the district engineer issues a written NWP verification.
32. Pre-Construction Notification. (a) Timing. Where required by the terms of the NWP, the prospective
permittee must notify the district engineer by submitting a pre-construction notification (PCN) as early as
possible. The district engineer must determine if the PCN is complete within 30 calendar days of the date
of receipt and, if the PCN is determined to be incomplete, notify the prospective permittee within that 30
day period to request the additional information necessary to make the PCN complete. The request must
specify the information needed to make the PCN complete. As a general rule, district engineers will
10
request additional information necessary to make the PCN complete only once. However, if the
prospective permittee does not provide all of the requested information, then the district engineer will
notify the prospective permittee that the PCN is still incomplete and the PCN review process will not
commence until all of the requested information has been received by the district engineer. The
prospective permittee shall not begin the activity until either:
(1) He or she is notified in writing by the district engineer that the activity may proceed under the
NWP with any special conditions imposed by the district or division engineer; or
(2) 45 calendar days have passed from the district engineer’s receipt of the complete PCN and the
prospective permittee has not received written notice from the district or division engineer. However, if
the permittee was required to notify the Corps pursuant to general condition 18 that listed species or
critical habitat might be affected or are in the vicinity of the activity, or to notify the Corps pursuant to
general condition 20 that the activity might have the potential to cause effects to historic properties, the
permittee cannot begin the activity until receiving written notification from the Corps that there is “no
effect” on listed species or “no potential to cause effects” on historic properties, or that any consultation
required under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (see 33 CFR 330.4(f)) and/or section 106 of the
National Historic Preservation Act (see 33 CFR 330.4(g)) has been completed. Also, work cannot begin
under NWPs 21, 49, or 50 until the permittee has received written approval from the Corps. If the
proposed activity requires a written waiver to exceed specified limits of an NWP, the permittee may not
begin the activity until the district engineer issues the waiver. If the district or division engineer notifies
the permittee in writing that an individual permit is required within 45 calendar days of receipt of a
complete PCN, the permittee cannot begin the activity until an individual permit has been obtained.
Subsequently, the permittee’s right to proceed under the NWP may be modified, suspended, or revoked
only in accordance with the procedure set forth in 33 CFR 330.5(d)(2).
(b) Contents of Pre-Construction Notification: The PCN must be in writing and include the following
information:
(1) Name, address and telephone numbers of the prospective permittee;
(2) Location of the proposed activity;
(3) Identify the specific NWP or NWP(s) the prospective permittee wants to use to authorize
the proposed activity;
(4) A description of the proposed activity; the activity’s purpose; direct and indirect adverse
environmental effects the activity would cause, including the anticipated amount of loss of wetlands,
other special aquatic sites, and other waters expected to result from the NWP activity, in acres, linear
feet, or other appropriate unit of measure; a description of any proposed mitigation measures intended
to reduce the adverse environmental effects caused by the proposed activity; and any other NWP(s),
regional general permit(s), or individual permit(s) used or intended to be used to authorize any part of
the proposed project or any related activity, including other separate and distant crossings for linear
projects that require Department of the Army authorization but do not require pre-construction
notification. The description of the proposed activity and any proposed mitigation measures should be
sufficiently detailed to allow the district engineer to determine that the adverse environmental effects
of the activity will be no more than minimal and to determine the need for compensatory mitigation
or other mitigation measures. For single and complete linear projects, the PCN must include the
quantity of anticipated losses of wetlands, other special aquatic sites, and other waters for each single
and complete crossing of those wetlands, other special aquatic sites, and other waters. Sketches
should be provided when necessary to show that the activity complies with the terms of the NWP.
(Sketches usually clarify the activity and when provided results in a quicker decision. Sketches should
contain sufficient detail to provide an illustrative description of the proposed activity (e.g., a
conceptual plan), but do not need to be detailed engineering plans);
(5) The PCN must include a delineation of wetlands, other special aquatic sites, and other
waters, such as lakes and ponds, and perennial, intermittent, and ephemeral streams, on the project
site. Wetland delineations must be prepared in accordance with the current method required by the
Corps. The permittee may ask the Corps to delineate the special aquatic sites and other waters on the
project site, but there may be a delay if the Corps does the delineation, especially if the project site is
11
large or contains many wetlands, other special aquatic sites, and other waters. Furthermore, the 45
day period will not start until the delineation has been submitted to or completed by the Corps, as
appropriate;
(6) If the proposed activity will result in the loss of greater than 1/10-acre of wetlands and a
PCN is required, the prospective permittee must submit a statement describing how the mitigation
requirement will be satisfied, or explaining why the adverse environmental effects are no more than
minimal and why compensatory mitigation should not be required. As an alternative, the prospective
permittee may submit a conceptual or detailed mitigation plan.
(7) For non-Federal permittees, if any listed species or designated critical habitat might be
affected or is in the vicinity of the activity, or if the activity is located in designated critical habitat,
the PCN must include the name(s) of those endangered or threatened species that might be affected
by the proposed activity or utilize the designated critical habitat that might be affected by the
proposed activity. For NWP activities that require pre-construction notification, Federal permittees
must provide documentation demonstrating compliance with the Endangered Species Act;
(8) For non-Federal permittees, if the NWP activity might have the potential to cause effects
to a historic property listed on, determined to be eligible for listing on, or potentially eligible for
listing on, the National Register of Historic Places, the PCN must state which historic property might
have the potential to be affected by the proposed activity or include a vicinity map indicating the
location of the historic property. For NWP activities that require pre-construction notification, Federal
permittees must provide documentation demonstrating compliance with section 106 of the National
Historic Preservation Act;
(9) For an activity that will occur in a component of the National Wild and Scenic River
System, or in a river officially designated by Congress as a “study river” for possible inclusion in the
system while the river is in an official study status, the PCN must identify the Wild and Scenic River
or the “study river” (see general condition 16); and
(10) For an activity that requires permission from the Corps pursuant to 33 U.S.C. 408
because it will alter or temporarily or permanently occupy or use a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
federally authorized civil works project, the pre-construction notification must include a statement
confirming that the project proponent has submitted a written request for section 408 permission from
the Corps office having jurisdiction over that USACE project.
(c) Form of Pre-Construction Notification: The standard individual permit application form (Form ENG
4345) may be used, but the completed application form must clearly indicate that it is an NWP PCN and
must include all of the applicable information required in paragraphs (b)(1) through (10) of this general
condition. A letter containing the required information may also be used. Applicants may provide
electronic files of PCNs and supporting materials if the district engineer has established tools and
procedures for electronic submittals. (d) Agency Coordination: (1) The district engineer will consider any
comments from Federal and state agencies concerning the proposed activity’s compliance with the terms
and conditions of the NWPs and the need for mitigation to reduce the activity’s adverse environmental
effects so that they are no more than minimal. (2) Agency coordination is required for: (i) all NWP
activities that require pre-construction notification and result in the loss of greater than 1/2-acre of waters
of the United States; (ii) NWP 21, 29, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 50, 51, and 52 activities that require pre-
construction notification and will result in the loss of greater than 300 linear feet of stream bed; (iii) NWP
13 activities in excess of 500 linear feet, fills greater than one cubic yard per running foot, or involve
discharges of dredged or fill material into special aquatic sites; and (iv) NWP 54 activities in excess of
500 linear feet, or that extend into the waterbody more than 30 feet from the mean low water line in tidal
waters or the ordinary high water mark in the Great Lakes. (3) When agency coordination is required, the
district engineer will immediately provide (e.g., via e-mail, facsimile transmission, overnight mail, or
other expeditious manner) a copy of the complete PCN to the appropriate Federal or state offices (FWS,
state natural resource or water quality agency, EPA, and, if appropriate, the NMFS). With the exception
of NWP 37, these agencies will have 10 calendar days from the date the material is transmitted to notify
the district engineer via telephone, facsimile transmission, or e-mail that they intend to provide
substantive, site-specific comments. The comments must explain why the agency believes the adverse
12
environmental effects will be more than minimal. If so contacted by an agency, the district engineer will
wait an additional 15 calendar days before making a decision on the pre-construction notification. The
district engineer will fully consider agency comments received within the specified time frame
concerning the proposed activity’s compliance with the terms and conditions of the NWPs, including the
need for mitigation to ensure the net adverse environmental effects of the proposed activity are no more
than minimal. The district engineer will provide no response to the resource agency, except as provided
below. The district engineer will indicate in the administrative record associated with each pre-
construction notification that the resource agencies’ concerns were considered. For NWP 37, the
emergency watershed protection and rehabilitation activity may proceed immediately in cases where there
is an unacceptable hazard to life or a significant loss of property or economic hardship will occur. The
district engineer will consider any comments received to decide whether the NWP 37 authorization
should be modified, suspended, or revoked in accordance with the procedures at 33 CFR 330.5.
(4) In cases of where the prospective permittee is not a Federal agency, the district engineer will provide a
response to NMFS within 30 calendar days of receipt of any Essential Fish Habitat conservation
recommendations, as required by section 305(b)(4)(B) of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation
and Management Act. (5) Applicants are encouraged to provide the Corps with either electronic files or
multiple copies of pre-construction notifications to expedite agency coordination.
District Engineer’s Decision: 1. In reviewing the PCN for the proposed activity, the district engineer will
determine whether the activity authorized by the NWP will result in more than minimal individual or
cumulative adverse environmental effects or may be contrary to the public interest. If a project
proponent requests authorization by a specific NWP, the district engineer should issue the NWP
verification for that activity if it meets the terms and conditions of that NWP, unless he or she determines,
after considering mitigation, that the proposed activity will result in more than minimal individual and
cumulative adverse effects on the aquatic environment and other aspects of the public interest and
exercises discretionary authority to require an individual permit for the proposed activity. For a linear
project, this determination will include an evaluation of the individual crossings of waters of the United
States to determine whether they individually satisfy the terms and conditions of the NWP(s), as well as
the cumulative effects caused by all of the crossings authorized by NWP. If an applicant requests a waiver
of the 300 linear foot limit on impacts to streams or of an otherwise applicable limit, as provided for in
NWPs 13, 21, 29, 36, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 50, 51, 52, or 54, the district engineer will only grant the waiver
upon a written determination that the NWP activity will result in only minimal individual and cumulative
adverse environmental effects. For those NWPs that have a waivable 300 linear foot limit for losses of
intermittent and ephemeral stream bed and a 1/2-acre limit (i.e., NWPs 21, 29, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 50, 51,
and 52), the loss of intermittent and ephemeral stream bed, plus any other losses of jurisdictional waters
and wetlands, cannot exceed 1/2-acre. 2. When making minimal adverse environmental effects
determinations the district engineer will consider the direct and indirect effects caused by the NWP
activity. He or she will also consider the cumulative adverse environmental effects caused by activities
authorized by NWP and whether those cumulative adverse environmental effects are no more than
minimal. The district engineer will also consider site specific factors, such as the environmental setting in
the vicinity of the NWP activity, the type of resource that will be affected by the NWP activity, the
functions provided by the aquatic resources that will be affected by the NWP activity, the degree or
magnitude to which the aquatic resources perform those functions, the extent that aquatic resource
functions will be lost as a result of the NWP activity (e.g., partial or complete loss), the duration of the
adverse effects (temporary or permanent), the importance of the aquatic resource functions to the region
(e.g., watershed or ecoregion), and mitigation required by the district engineer. If an appropriate
functional or condition assessment method is available and practicable to use, that assessment method
may be used by the district engineer to assist in the minimal adverse environmental effects determination.
The district engineer may add case-specific special conditions to the NWP authorization to address site-
specific environmental concerns. 3. If the proposed activity requires a PCN and will result in a loss of
greater than 1/10-acre of wetlands, the prospective permittee should submit a mitigation proposal with the
PCN. Applicants may also propose compensatory mitigation for NWP activities with smaller impacts, or
13
for impacts to other types of waters (e.g., streams). The district engineer will consider any proposed
compensatory mitigation or other mitigation measures the applicant has included in the proposal in
determining whether the net adverse environmental effects of the proposed activity are no more than
minimal. The compensatory mitigation proposal may be either conceptual or detailed. If the district
engineer determines that the activity complies with the terms and conditions of the NWP and that the
adverse environmental effects are no more than minimal, after considering mitigation, the district
engineer will notify the permittee and include any activity-specific conditions in the NWP verification the
district engineer deems necessary. Conditions for compensatory mitigation requirements must comply
with the appropriate provisions at 33 CFR 332.3(k). The district engineer must approve the final
mitigation plan before the permittee commences work in waters of the United States, unless the district
engineer determines that prior approval of the final mitigation plan is not practicable or not necessary to
ensure timely completion of the required compensatory mitigation. If the prospective permittee elects to
submit a compensatory mitigation plan with the PCN, the district engineer will expeditiously review the
proposed compensatory mitigation plan. The district engineer must review the proposed compensatory
mitigation plan within 45 calendar days of receiving a complete PCN and determine whether the proposed
mitigation would ensure the NWP activity results in no more than minimal adverse environmental effects.
If the net adverse environmental effects of the NWP activity (after consideration of the mitigation
proposal) are determined by the district engineer to be no more than minimal, the district engineer will
provide a timely written response to the applicant. The response will state that the NWP activity can
proceed under the terms and conditions of the NWP, including any activity-specific conditions added to
the NWP authorization by the district engineer. 4. If the district engineer determines that the adverse
environmental effects of the proposed activity are more than minimal, then the district engineer will
notify the applicant either: (a) that the activity does not qualify for authorization under the NWP and
instruct the applicant on the procedures to seek authorization under an individual permit; (b) that the
activity is authorized under the NWP subject to the applicant’s submission of a mitigation plan that would
reduce the adverse environmental effects so that they are no more than minimal; or (c) that the activity is
authorized under the NWP with specific modifications or conditions. Where the district engineer
determines that mitigation is required to ensure no more than minimal adverse environmental effects, the
activity will be authorized within the 45-day PCN period (unless additional time is required to comply
with general conditions 18, 20, and/or 31, or to evaluate PCNs for activities authorized by NWPs 21, 49,
and 50), with activity-specific conditions that state the mitigation requirements. The authorization will
include the necessary conceptual or detailed mitigation plan or a requirement that the applicant submit a
mitigation plan that would reduce the adverse environmental effects so that they are no more than
minimal. When compensatory mitigation is required, no work in waters of the United States may occur
until the district engineer has approved a specific mitigation plan or has determined that prior approval of
a final mitigation plan is not practicable or not necessary to ensure timely completion of the required
compensatory mitigation.
Further Information: 1. District Engineers have authority to determine if an activity complies with the
terms and conditions of an NWP. 2. NWPs do not obviate the need to obtain other federal, state, or local
permits, approvals, or authorizations required by law. 3. NWPs do not grant any property rights or
exclusive privileges. 4. NWPs do not authorize any injury to the property or rights of others. 5. NWPs do
not authorize interference with any existing or proposed Federal project (see general condition 31).
C. CORPS SEATTLE DISTRICT REGIONAL GENERAL CONDITIONS: The following conditions
apply to all NWPs for the Seattle District in Washington State, unless specified.
1. Project Drawings: Drawings must be submitted with pre-construction notification (PCN). Drawings
must provide a clear understanding of the proposed project, and how waters of the U.S. will be affected.
Drawings must be originals and not reduced copies of large-scale plans. Engineering drawings are not
required. Existing and proposed site conditions (manmade and landscape features) must be drawn to
scale.
14
2. Aquatic Resources Requiring Special Protection: Activities resulting in a loss of waters of the
United States in mature forested wetlands, bogs and peatlands, aspen-dominated wetlands, alkali
wetlands, vernal pools, camas prairie wetlands, estuarine wetlands, wetlands in coastal lagoons, and
wetlands in dunal systems along the Washington coast cannot be authorized by a NWP, except by the
following NWPs:
NWP 3 – Maintenance
NWP 20 – Response Operations for Oil and Hazardous Substances
NWP 32 – Completed Enforcement Actions
NWP 38 – Cleanup of Hazardous and Toxic Waste
In order to use one of the above-referenced NWPs in any of the aquatic resources requiring special
protection, prospective permittees must submit a PCN to the Corps of Engineers (see NWP general
condition 32) and obtain written authorization before commencing work.
3. New Bank Stabilization in Tidal Waters of Puget Sound: Activities involving new bank
stabilization in tidal waters in Water Resource Inventory Areas (WRIAs)
8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 (within the areas identified on Figures 1a through 1e on Corps website) cannot be
authorized by NWP.
4. Commencement Bay: The following NWPs may not be used to authorize activities located in the
Commencement Bay Study Area (see Figure 2 on Corps website):
NWP 12 – Utility Line Activities (substations)
NWP 13 – Bank Stabilization
NWP 14 – Linear Transportation Projects
NWP 23 – Approved Categorical Exclusions
NWP 29 – Residential Developments
NWP 39 – Commercial and Institutional Developments
NWP 40 – Agricultural Activities
NWP 41 – Reshaping Existing Drainage Ditches
NWP 42 – Recreational Facilities
NWP 43 – Stormwater and Wastewater Management Facilities
5. Bank Stabilization: All projects including new or maintenance bank stabilization activities require
PCN to the Corps of Engineers (see NWP general condition 32). For new bank stabilization projects only,
the following must be submitted to the Corps of Engineers:
a. The cause of the erosion and the distance of any existing structures from the area(s) being
stabilized.
b. The type and length of existing bank stabilization within 300 feet of the proposed project.
c. A description of current conditions and expected post-project conditions in the waterbody.
d. A statement describing how the project incorporates elements avoiding and minimizing adverse
environmental effects to the aquatic environment and nearshore riparian area, including vegetation
impacts in the waterbody.
In addition to a. through d., the results from any relevant geotechnical investigations can be submitted
with the PCN if it describes current or expected conditions in the waterbody.
6. Crossings of Waters of the United States: Any project including installing, replacing, or modifying
crossings of waters of the United States, such as culverts or bridges, requires submittal of a PCN to the
Corps of Engineers (see NWP general condition 32). If a culvert is proposed to cross waters of the U.S.
where salmonid species are present or could be present, the project must apply the stream simulation
design method from the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife located in the Water Crossing
Design Guidelines (2013), or a design method which provides passage at all life stages at all flows where
the salmonid species would naturally seek passage. If the stream simulation design method is not applied
15
for a culvert where salmonid species are present or could be present, the project proponent must provide a
rationale in the PCN sufficient to establish one of the following:
a. The existence of extraordinary site conditions.
b. How the proposed design will provide equivalent or better fish passage and fisheries habitat
benefits than the stream simulation design method.
If a culvert is proposed to cross waters of the U.S. where salmonid species are present or could be present,
project proponents must provide a monitoring plan with the PCN that specifies how the proposed culvert
will be assessed over a five-year period from the time of construction completion to ensure its
effectiveness in providing passage at all life stages at all flows where the salmonid species would
naturally seek passage. Culverts installed under emergency authorization that do not meet the above
design criteria will be required to meet the above design criteria to receive an after-the-fact nationwide
permit verification.
7. Stream Loss: A PCN is required for all activities that result in the loss of any linear feet of stream
beds. No activity shall result in the loss of any linear feet of perennial stream beds or the loss of greater
than 300 linear feet of intermittent and/or ephemeral stream beds. A stream may be rerouted if it is
designed in a manner that maintains or restores hydrologic, ecologic, and geomorphic stream processes,
provided there is not a reduction in the linear feet of stream bed. Streams include brooks, creeks, rivers,
and historical waters of the U.S. that have been channelized into ditches. This condition does not apply to
ditches constructed in uplands. Stream loss restrictions may be waived by the district engineer on a case-
by-case basis provided the activities result in net increases of aquatic resource functions and services.
8. Mitigation: Pre-construction notification is required for any project that will result in permanent
wetland losses that exceed 1,000 square feet. In addition to the requirements of General Condition 23
(Mitigation), compensatory mitigation at a minimum one-to-one ratio will be required for all permanent
wetland losses that exceed 1,000 square feet. When a PCN is required for wetland losses less than 1,000
square feet, the Corps of Engineers may determine on a case-by-case basis that compensatory mitigation
is required to ensure that the activity results in minimal adverse effects on the aquatic environment.
Compensatory mitigation for impacts to marine waters, lakes, and streams will be determined on a case-
by-case basis. If temporary impacts to waters of the U.S. exceed six months, the Corps of Engineers may
require compensatory mitigation for temporal effects.
9. Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act – Essential Fish Habitat
Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) is defined as those waters and substrate necessary to fish for spawning,
breeding, feeding, or growth to maturity. If EFH may be adversely affected by a proposed activity, the
prospective permittee must provide a written EFH assessment with an analysis of the effects of the
proposed action on EFH. The assessment must identify the type(s) of essential fish habitat (i.e., Pacific
salmon, groundfish, and/or coastal-pelagic species) that may be affected. If the Corps of Engineers
determines the project will adversely affect EFH, consultation with NOAA Fisheries will be required.
Federal agencies should follow their own procedures for complying with the requirements of the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act. If PCN is required for the proposed
activity, Federal permittees must provide the district engineer with the appropriate documentation to
demonstrate compliance with those requirements.
10. Forage Fish: For projects in forage fish spawning habitat, in-water work must occur within
designated forage fish work windows, or when forage fish are not spawning. If working outside of a
designated work window, or if forage fish work windows are closed year round, work may occur if the
work window restriction is released for a period of time after a forage fish spawning survey has been
conducted by a biologist approved by the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW).
Forage fish species with designated in-water work windows include Pacific sand lance (Ammodytes
hexapterus), Pacific herring (Clupea pallasi), and surf smelt (Hypomesus pretiosus). This RGC does not
16
apply to NWP 48, Commercial Shellfish Aquaculture Activities. Please see specific regional conditions
for NWP 48.
11. Notification of Permit Requirements: The permittee must provide a copy of the nationwide permit
authorization letter, conditions, and permit drawings to all contractors and any other parties performing
the authorized work prior to the commencement of any work in waters of the U.S. The permittee must
ensure all appropriate contractors and any other parties performing the authorized work at the project site
have read and understand relevant NWP conditions as well as plans, approvals, and documents referenced
in the NWP letter. A copy of these documents must be maintained onsite throughout the duration of
construction.
12. Construction Boundaries: Permittees must clearly mark all construction area boundaries before
beginning work on projects that involve grading or placement of fill. Boundary markers and/or
construction fencing must be maintained and clearly visible for the duration of construction. Permittees
should avoid and minimize removal of native vegetation (including submerged aquatic vegetation) to the
maximum extent possible.
13. Temporary Impacts and Site Restoration
a. Temporary impacts to waters of the U.S. must not exceed six months unless the prospective permittee
requests and receives a waiver by the district engineer. Temporary impacts to waters of the U.S. must
be identified in the PCN.
b. No more than 1/2 acre of waters of the U.S. may be temporarily filled unless the prospective permittee
requests and receives a waiver from the district engineer (temporary fills do not affect specified limits
for loss of waters associated with specific nationwide permits).
c. Native soils removed from waters of the U.S. for project construction should be stockpiled and used
for site restoration. Restoration of temporarily disturbed areas must include returning the area to pre-
project ground surface contours. If native soil is not available from the project site for restoration,
suitable clean soil of the same textural class may be used. Other soils may be used only if identified in
the PCN.
d. The permittee must revegetate disturbed areas with native plant species sufficient in number, spacing,
and diversity to restore affected functions. A maintenance and monitoring plan commensurate with
the impacts, may be required. Revegetation must begin as soon as site conditions allow within the
same growing season as the disturbance unless the schedule is approved by the Corps of Engineers.
Native plants removed from waters of the U.S. for project construction should be stockpiled and used
for revegetation when feasible. Temporary Erosion and Sediment Control measures must be removed
as soon as the area has established vegetation sufficient to control erosion and sediment.
e. If the Corps determines the project will result in temporary impacts of submerged aquatic vegetation
(SAV) that are more than minimal, a monitoring plan must be submitted. If recovery is not achieved
by the end of the monitoring period, contingencies must be implemented, and additional monitoring
will be required.
This RGC does not apply to NWP 48, Commercial Shellfish Aquaculture Activities. Please see specific
regional conditions for NWP 48.
D. CORPS REGIONAL SPECIFIC CONDITIONS FOR THIS NWP: none
E. ECOLOGY 401 CERTIFICATION: GENERAL CONDITIONS
In addition to all the Corps National and Seattle Districts’ Regional permit conditions, the following State
General Section 401 Water Quality Certification (Section 401) conditions apply to all Nationwide Permits
whether certified or partially certified in the State of Washington.
1. For in-water construction activities. Ecology Section 401 review is required for projects or
17
activities authorized under NWPs that will cause, or may be likely to cause or contribute to an exceedance
of a State water quality standard (Chapter 173-201A WAC) or sediment management standard (Chapter
173-204 WAC). State water quality standards and sediment management standards are available on
Ecology’s website. Note: In-water activities include any activity within a wetland and/or activities below
the ordinary high water mark (OHWM).
2. Projects or Activities Discharging to Impaired Waters. Ecology Section 401 review is required for
projects or activities authorized under NWPs if the project or activity will occur in a 303(d) listed
segment of a waterbody or upstream of a listed segment and may result in further exceedances of the
specific listed parameter. To determine if your project or activity is in a 303(d) listed segment of a
waterbody, visit Ecology’s Water Quality Assessment webpage for maps and search tools.
3. Application. For projects or activities that will require Ecology Section 401 review, applicants must
provide Ecology with a Joint Aquatic Resources Permit Application (JARPA) along with the
documentation provided to the Corps, as described in National General Condition 32, Pre-Construction
Notification, including, when applicable: (a) A description of the project, including site plans, project
purpose, direct and indirect adverse environmental effects the project would cause, best management
practices (BMPs), and any other Department of the Army or federal agency permits used or intended to be
used to authorize any part of the proposed project or any related activity. (b) Drawings indicating the
Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM), delineation of special aquatic sites and other waters of the state.
Wetland delineations must be prepared in accordance with the current method required by the Corps and
shall include Ecology’s Wetland Rating form. Wetland rating forms are subject to review and verification
by Ecology staff. Guidance for determining the OHWM is available on Ecology’s website. (c) A
statement describing how the mitigation requirement will be satisfied. A conceptual or detailed mitigation
or restoration plan may be submitted. See State General Condition 5 for details on mitigation
requirements. (d) Other applicable requirements of Corps Nationwide Permit General Condition 32,
Corps Regional Conditions, or notification conditions of the applicable NWP. (e) Within 180 calendar
days from receipt of applicable documents noted above and a copy of the final authorization letter from
the Corps providing coverage for a proposed project or activity under the NWP Program Ecology will
provide the applicant notice of whether an individual Section 401 will be required for the project. If
Ecology fails to act within a year after receipt of both of these documents, Section 401 is presumed
waived.
4. Aquatic resources requiring special protection. Certain aquatic resources are unique, difficult-to-
replace components of the aquatic environment in Washington State. Activities that would affect these
resources must be avoided to the greatest extent possible. Compensating for adverse impacts to high
value aquatic resources is typically difficult, prohibitively expensive, and may not be possible in some
landscape settings. Ecology Section 401 review is required for activities in or affecting the following
aquatic resources (and not prohibited by Seattle District Regional General Condition): (a) Wetlands with
special characteristics (as defined in the Washington State Wetland Rating Systems for western and
eastern Washington, Ecology Publications #14-06-029 and #14-06-030):
• Estuarine wetlands.
• Wetlands of High Conservation Value.
• Bogs.
• Old-growth and mature forested wetlands.
• Wetlands in coastal lagoons.
• Interdunal wetlands.
• Vernal pools.
• Alkali wetlands.
(b) Fens, aspen-dominated wetlands, camas prairie wetlands. (c) Marine water with eelgrass (Zostera
marina) beds (except for NWP 48). (d) Category I wetlands. (e) Category II wetlands with a habitat score
≥ 8 points. This State General Condition does not apply to the following Nationwide Permits:
18
NWP 20 – Response Operations for Oil and Hazardous Substances, NWP 32 – Completed Enforcement
Actions
5. Mitigation. Applicants are required to show that they have followed the mitigation sequence and
have first avoided and minimized impacts to aquatic resources wherever practicable. For projects
requiring Ecology Section 401 review with unavoidable impacts to aquatics resources, adequate
compensatory mitigation must be provided.
(a) Wetland mitigation plans submitted for Ecology review and approval shall be based on the most
current guidance provided in Wetland Mitigation in Washington State, Parts 1 and 2 (available on
Ecology’s website) and shall, at a minimum, include the following:
i. A description of the measures taken to avoid and minimize impacts to wetlands and other waters of
the U.S.
ii. The nature of the proposed impacts (i.e., acreage of wetlands and functions lost or degraded).
iii. The rationale for the mitigation site that was selected.
iv. The goals and objectives of the compensatory mitigation project.
v. How the mitigation project will be accomplished, including construction sequencing, best
management practices to protect water quality, proposed performance standards for measuring success
and the proposed buffer widths.
vi. How it will be maintained and monitored to assess progress towards goals and objectives.
Monitoring will generally be required for a minimum of five years. For forested and scrub-shrub
wetlands, 10 years of monitoring will often be necessary.
vii. How the compensatory mitigation site will be legally protected for the long term.
Refer to Wetland Mitigation in Washington State – Part 2: Developing Mitigation Plans (Ecology
Publication #06-06-011b) and Selecting Wetland Mitigation Sites Using a Watershed Approach (Ecology
Publications #09-06-032 (Western Washington) and #10-06-007 (Eastern Washington)) for guidance on
selecting suitable mitigation sites and developing mitigation plans. Ecology encourages the use of
alternative mitigation approaches, including credit/debit methodology, advance mitigation, and other
programmatic approach such as mitigation banks and in-lieu fee programs. If you are interested in
proposing use of an alternative mitigation approach, consult with the appropriate Ecology regional staff
person. Information on alternative mitigation approaches is available on Ecology’s website.
(b) Mitigation for other aquatic resource impacts will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
6. Temporary Fills. Ecology Section 401 review is required for any project or activity with temporary
fill in wetlands or other waters of the state for more than 90 days, unless the applicant has received
written approval from Ecology. Note: This State General Condition does not apply to projects or activities
authorized under NWP 33, Temporary Construction, Access, and Dewatering
7. Stormwater pollution prevention: All projects that involve land disturbance or impervious surfaces
must implement stormwater pollution prevention or control measures to avoid discharge of pollutants in
stormwater runoff to waters of the State.
(a) For land disturbances during construction, the applicant must obtain and implement permits (e.g.,
Construction Stormwater General Permit) where required and follow Ecology’s current stormwater
manual.
(b) Following construction, prevention or treatment of on-going stormwater runoff from impervious
surfaces shall be provided.
Ecology’s Stormwater Management and Design Manuals and stormwater permit information are available
on Ecology’s website.
8. State Section 401 Review for PCNs not receiving 45-day response from the Seattle District. In the
event the Seattle District Corps does not issue a NWP authorization letter within 45 calendar days of
receipt of a complete pre-construction notification, the applicant must contact Ecology for Section 401
review prior to commencing work.
19
F. ECOLOGY 401 CERTIFICATION: SPECIFIC CONDITIONS FOR THIS NWP:

F. Ecology 401 Certification: Specific Conditions for this NWP
G. Coastal Zone Management Consistency Response for this NWP
In addition to any special condition that may be required on a case-by-case basis by the District Engineer,
the following terms and conditions must be met, as applicable, for a Nationwide Permit (NWP)
authorization to be valid in Washington State.
A. DESCRIPTION OF AUTHORIZED ACTIVITIES
27. Aquatic Habitat Restoration, Enhancement, and Establishment Activities. Activities in waters of the
United States associated with the restoration, enhancement, and establishment of tidal and non-tidal
wetlands and riparian areas, the restoration and enhancement of non-tidal streams and other non-tidal
open waters, and the rehabilitation or enhancement of tidal streams, tidal wetlands, and tidal open waters,
provided those activities result in net increases in aquatic resource functions and services.
To be authorized by this NWP, the aquatic habitat restoration, enhancement, or establishment activity
must be planned, designed, and implemented so that it results in aquatic habitat that resembles an
ecological reference. An ecological reference may be based on the characteristics of an intact aquatic
habitat or riparian area of the same type that exists in the region. An ecological reference may be based
on a conceptual model developed from regional ecological knowledge of the target aquatic habitat type or
riparian area.
To the extent that a Corps permit is required, activities authorized by this NWP include, but are not
limited to: the removal of accumulated sediments; the installation, removal, and maintenance of small
water control structures, dikes, and berms, as well as discharges of dredged or fill material to restore
appropriate stream channel configurations after small water control structures, dikes, and berms, are
removed; the installation of current deflectors; the enhancement, rehabilitation, or re-establishment of
riffle and pool stream structure; the placement of in-stream habitat structures; modifications of the stream
bed and/or banks to enhance, rehabilitate, or re-establish stream meanders; the removal of stream barriers,
such as undersized culverts, fords, and grade control structures; the backfilling of artificial channels; the
removal of existing drainage structures, such as drain tiles, and the filling, blocking, or reshaping of
drainage ditches to restore wetland hydrology; the installation of structures or fills necessary to restore or
enhance wetland or stream hydrology; the construction of small nesting islands; the construction of open
water areas; the construction of oyster habitat over unvegetated bottom in tidal waters; shellfish seeding;
activities needed to reestablish vegetation, including plowing or discing for seed bed preparation and the
planting of appropriate wetland species; re-establishment of submerged aquatic vegetation in areas where
those plant communities previously existed; re-establishment of tidal wetlands in tidal waters where those
wetlands previously existed; mechanized land clearing to remove non-native invasive, exotic, or nuisance
vegetation; and other related activities. Only native plant species should be planted at the site.
2
This NWP authorizes the relocation of non-tidal waters, including non-tidal wetlands and streams, on the
project site provided there are net increases in aquatic resource functions and services. Except for the
relocation of non-tidal waters on the project site, this NWP does not authorize the conversion of a stream
or natural wetlands to another aquatic habitat type (e.g., the conversion of a stream to wetland or vice
versa) or uplands. Changes in wetland plant communities that occur when wetland hydrology is more
fully restored during wetland rehabilitation activities are not considered a conversion to another aquatic
habitat type. This NWP does not authorize stream channelization. This NWP does not authorize the
relocation of tidal waters or the conversion of tidal waters, including tidal wetlands, to other aquatic uses,
such as the conversion of tidal wetlands into open water impoundments. Compensatory mitigation is not
required for activities authorized by this NWP since these activities must result in net increases in aquatic
resource functions and services.
Reversion. For enhancement, restoration, and establishment activities conducted: (1) In accordance with
the terms and conditions of a binding stream or wetland enhancement or restoration agreement, or a
wetland establishment agreement, between the landowner and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS),
the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), the Farm Service Agency (FSA), the National
Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), the National Ocean Service (NOS), U.S. Forest Service (USFS), or
their designated state cooperating agencies; (2) as voluntary wetland restoration, enhancement, and
establishment actions documented by the NRCS or USDA Technical Service Provider pursuant to NRCS
Field Office Technical Guide standards; or (3) on reclaimed surface coal mine lands, in accordance with a
Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act permit issued by the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation
and Enforcement (OSMRE) or the applicable state agency, this NWP also authorizes any future discharge
of dredged or fill material associated with the reversion of the area to its documented prior condition and
use (i.e., prior to the restoration, enhancement, or establishment activities). The reversion must occur
within five years after expiration of a limited term wetland restoration or establishment agreement or
permit, and is authorized in these circumstances even if the discharge occurs after this NWP expires. The
five-year reversion limit does not apply to agreements without time limits reached between the landowner
and the FWS, NRCS, FSA, NMFS, NOS, USFS, or an appropriate state cooperating agency. This NWP
also authorizes discharges of dredged or fill material in waters of the United States for the reversion of
wetlands that were restored, enhanced, or established on prior-converted cropland or on uplands, in
accordance with a binding agreement between the landowner and NRCS, FSA, FWS, or their designated
state cooperating agencies (even though the restoration, enhancement, or establishment activity did not
require a section 404 permit). The prior condition will be documented in the original agreement or permit,
and the determination of return to prior conditions will be made by the Federal agency or appropriate state
agency executing the agreement or permit. Before conducting any reversion activity the permittee or the
appropriate Federal or state agency must notify the district engineer and include the documentation of the
prior condition. Once an area has reverted to its prior physical condition, it will be subject to whatever the
Corps Regulatory requirements are applicable to that type of land at the time. The requirement that the
activity results in a net increase in aquatic resource functions and services does not apply to reversion
activities meeting the above conditions. Except for the activities described above, this NWP does not
authorize any future discharge of dredged or fill material associated with the reversion of the area to its
prior condition. In such cases a separate permit would be required for any reversion.
Reporting. For those activities that do not require pre-construction notification, the permittee must submit
to the district engineer a copy of: (1) The binding stream enhancement or restoration agreement or
wetland enhancement, restoration, or establishment agreement, or a project description, including project
plans and location map; (2) the NRCS or USDA Technical Service Provider documentation for the
voluntary stream enhancement or restoration action or wetland restoration, enhancement, or establishment
action; or (3) the SMCRA permit issued by OSMRE or the applicable state agency. The report must also
include information on baseline ecological conditions on the project site, such as a delineation of
wetlands, streams, and/or other aquatic habitats. These documents must be submitted to the district
3
engineer at least 30 days prior to commencing activities in waters of the United States authorized by this
NWP.
Notification: The permittee must submit a pre-construction notification to the district engineer prior to
commencing any activity (see general condition 32), except for the following activities: (1) Activities
conducted on non-Federal public lands and private lands, in accordance with the terms and conditions of a
binding stream enhancement or restoration agreement or wetland enhancement, restoration, or
establishment agreement between the landowner and the FWS, NRCS, FSA, NMFS, NOS, USFS or their
designated state cooperating agencies; (2) Voluntary stream or wetland restoration or enhancement action,
or wetland establishment action, documented by the NRCS or USDA Technical Service Provider
pursuant to NRCS Field Office Technical Guide standards; or (3) The reclamation of surface coal mine
lands, in accordance with an SMCRA permit issued by the OSMRE or the applicable state agency.
However, the permittee must submit a copy of the appropriate documentation to the district engineer to
fulfill the reporting requirement. (Authorities: Sections 10 and 404) Note: This NWP can be used to
authorize compensatory mitigation projects, including mitigation banks and in-lieu fee projects. However,
this NWP does not authorize the reversion of an area used for a compensatory mitigation project to its
prior condition, since compensatory mitigation is generally intended to be permanent.
B. CORPS NATIONAL GENERAL CONDITIONS FOR ALL NWPs
To qualify for NWP authorization, the prospective permittee must comply with the following general
conditions, as applicable, in addition to any regional or case-specific conditions imposed by the division
engineer or district engineer. Every person who may wish to obtain permit authorization under one or
more NWPs, or who is currently relying on an existing or prior permit authorization under one or more
NWPs, has been and is on notice that all of the provisions of 33 CFR 330.1 through 330.6 apply to every
NWP authorization. Note especially 33 CFR 330.5 relating to the modification, suspension, or revocation
of any NWP authorization.
1. Navigation. (a) No activity may cause more than a minimal adverse effect on navigation. (b) Any
safety lights and signals prescribed by the U.S. Coast Guard, through regulations or otherwise, must be
installed and maintained at the permittee's expense on authorized facilities in navigable waters of the
United States. (c) The permittee understands and agrees that, if future operations by the United States
require the removal, relocation, or other alteration, of the structure or work herein authorized, or if, in the
opinion of the Secretary of the Army or his authorized representative, said structure or work shall cause
unreasonable obstruction to the free navigation of the navigable waters, the permittee will be required,
upon due notice from the Corps of Engineers, to remove, relocate, or alter the structural work or
obstructions caused thereby, without expense to the United States. No claim shall be made against the
United States on account of any such removal or alteration.
2. Aquatic Life Movements. No activity may substantially disrupt the necessary life cycle movements of
those species of aquatic life indigenous to the waterbody, including those species that normally migrate
through the area, unless the activity's primary purpose is to impound water. All permanent and temporary
crossings of waterbodies shall be suitably culverted, bridged, or otherwise designed and constructed to
maintain low flows to sustain the movement of those aquatic species. If a bottomless culvert cannot be
used, then the crossing should be designed and constructed to minimize adverse effects to aquatic life
movements.
3. Spawning Areas. Activities in spawning areas during spawning seasons must be avoided to the
maximum extent practicable. Activities that result in the physical destruction (e.g., through excavation,
fill, or downstream smothering by substantial turbidity) of an important spawning area are not authorized.
4
4. Migratory Bird Breeding Areas. Activities in waters of the United States that serve as breeding areas
for migratory birds must be avoided to the maximum extent practicable.
5. Shellfish Beds. No activity may occur in areas of concentrated shellfish populations, unless the activity
is directly related to a shellfish harvesting activity authorized by NWPs 4 and 48, or is a shellfish seeding
or habitat restoration activity authorized by NWP 27.
6. Suitable Material. No activity may use unsuitable material (e.g., trash, debris, car bodies, asphalt, etc.).
Material used for construction or discharged must be free from toxic pollutants in toxic amounts (see
section 307 of the Clean Water Act).
7. Water Supply Intakes. No activity may occur in the proximity of a public water supply intake, except
where the activity is for the repair or improvement of public water supply intake structures or adjacent
bank stabilization.
8. Adverse Effects From Impoundments. If the activity creates an impoundment of water, adverse effects
to the aquatic system due to accelerating the passage of water, and/or restricting its flow must be
minimized to the maximum extent practicable.
9. Management of Water Flows. To the maximum extent practicable, the pre-construction course,
condition, capacity, and location of open waters must be maintained for each activity, including stream
channelization, storm water management activities, and temporary and permanent road crossings, except
as provided below. The activity must be constructed to withstand expected high flows. The activity must
not restrict or impede the passage of normal or high flows, unless the primary purpose of the activity is to
impound water or manage high flows. The activity may alter the pre-construction course, condition,
capacity, and location of open waters if it benefits the aquatic environment (e.g., stream restoration or
relocation activities).
10. Fills Within 100-Year Floodplains. The activity must comply with applicable FEMA-approved state
or local floodplain management requirements.
11. Equipment. Heavy equipment working in wetlands or mudflats must be placed on mats, or other
measures must be taken to minimize soil disturbance.
12. Soil Erosion and Sediment Controls. Appropriate soil erosion and sediment controls must be used and
maintained in effective operating condition during construction, and all exposed soil and other fills, as
well as any work below the ordinary high water mark or high tide line, must be permanently stabilized at
the earliest practicable date. Permittees are encouraged to perform work within waters of the United
States during periods of low-flow or no-flow, or during low tides.
13. Removal of Temporary Fills. Temporary fills must be removed in their entirety and the affected areas
returned to pre-construction elevations. The affected areas must be revegetated, as appropriate.
14. Proper Maintenance. Any authorized structure or fill shall be properly maintained, including
maintenance to ensure public safety and compliance with applicable NWP general conditions, as well as
any activity-specific conditions added by the district engineer to an NWP authorization.
15. Single and Complete Project. The activity must be a single and complete project. The same NWP
cannot be used more than once for the same single and complete project.
16. Wild and Scenic Rivers. (a) No NWP activity may occur in a component of the National Wild and
Scenic River System, or in a river officially designated by Congress as a “study river” for possible
5
inclusion in the system while the river is in an official study status, unless the appropriate Federal agency
with direct management responsibility for such river, has determined in writing that the proposed activity
will not adversely affect the Wild and Scenic River designation or study status. (b) If a proposed NWP
activity will occur in a component of the National Wild and Scenic River System, or in a river officially
designated by Congress as a “study river” for possible inclusion in the system while the river is in an
official study status, the permittee must submit a pre-construction notification (see general condition 32).
The district engineer will coordinate the PCN with the Federal agency with direct management
responsibility for that river. The permittee shall not begin the NWP activity until notified by the district
engineer that the Federal agency with direct management responsibility for that river has determined in
writing that the proposed NWP activity will not adversely affect the Wild and Scenic River designation or
study status. (c) Information on Wild and Scenic Rivers may be obtained from the appropriate Federal
land management agency responsible for the designated Wild and Scenic River or study river (e.g.,
National Park Service, U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service). Information on these rivers is also available at: http://www.rivers.gov/.
17. Tribal Rights. No NWP activity may cause more than minimal adverse effects on tribal rights
(including treaty rights), protected tribal resources, or tribal lands.
18. Endangered Species. (a) No activity is authorized under any NWP which is likely to directly or
indirectly jeopardize the continued existence of a threatened or endangered species or a species proposed
for such designation, as identified under the Federal Endangered Species Act (ESA), or which will
directly or indirectly destroy or adversely modify the critical habitat of such species. No activity is
authorized under any NWP which “may affect” a listed species or critical habitat, unless ESA section 7
consultation addressing the effects of the proposed activity has been completed. Direct effects are the
immediate effects on listed species and critical habitat caused by the NWP activity. Indirect effects are
those effects on listed species and critical habitat that are caused by the NWP activity and are later in
time, but still are reasonably certain to occur. (b) Federal agencies should follow their own procedures for
complying with the requirements of the ESA. If pre-construction notification is required for the proposed
activity, the Federal permittee must provide the district engineer with the appropriate documentation to
demonstrate compliance with those requirements. The district engineer will verify that the appropriate
documentation has been submitted. If the appropriate documentation has not been submitted, additional
ESA section 7 consultation may be necessary for the activity and the respective federal agency would be
responsible for fulfilling its obligation under section 7 of the ESA. (c) Non-federal permittees must
submit a pre-construction notification to the district engineer if any listed species or designated critical
habitat might be affected or is in the vicinity of the activity, or if the activity is located in designated
critical habitat, and shall not begin work on the activity until notified by the district engineer that the
requirements of the ESA have been satisfied and that the activity is authorized. For activities that might
affect Federally-listed endangered or threatened species or designated critical habitat, the pre-construction
notification must include the name(s) of the endangered or threatened species that might be affected by
the proposed activity or that utilize the designated critical habitat that might be affected by the proposed
activity. The district engineer will determine whether the proposed activity “may affect” or will have “no
effect” to listed species and designated critical habitat and will notify the non-Federal applicant of the
Corps’ determination within 45 days of receipt of a complete pre-construction notification. In cases where
the non-Federal applicant has identified listed species or critical habitat that might be affected or is in the
vicinity of the activity, and has so notified the Corps, the applicant shall not begin work until the Corps
has provided notification that the proposed activity will have “no effect” on listed species or critical
habitat, or until ESA section 7 consultation has been completed. If the non-Federal applicant has not
heard back from the Corps within 45 days, the applicant must still wait for notification from the Corps.
(d) As a result of formal or informal consultation with the FWS or NMFS the district engineer may add
species-specific permit conditions to the NWPs. (e) Authorization of an activity by an NWP does not
authorize the “take” of a threatened or endangered species as defined under the ESA. In the absence of
separate authorization (e.g., an ESA Section 10 Permit, a Biological Opinion with “incidental take”
6
provisions, etc.) from the FWS or the NMFS, the Endangered Species Act prohibits any person subject to
the jurisdiction of the United States to take a listed species, where "take" means to harass, harm, pursue,
hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect, or to attempt to engage in any such conduct. The word
“harm” in the definition of “take'' means an act which actually kills or injures wildlife. Such an act may
include significant habitat modification or degradation where it actually kills or injures wildlife by
significantly impairing essential behavioral patterns, including breeding, feeding or sheltering.
(f) If the non-federal permittee has a valid ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) incidental take permit with an
approved Habitat Conservation Plan for a project or a group of projects that includes the proposed NWP
activity, the non-federal applicant should provide a copy of that ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) permit with the
PCN required by paragraph (c) of this general condition. The district engineer will coordinate with the
agency that issued the ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) permit to determine whether the proposed NWP activity
and the associated incidental take were considered in the internal ESA section 7 consultation conducted
for the ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) permit. If that coordination results in concurrence from the agency that
the proposed NWP activity and the associated incidental take were considered in the internal ESA section
7 consultation for the ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) permit, the district engineer does not need to conduct a
separate ESA section 7 consultation for the proposed NWP activity. The district engineer will notify the
non-federal applicant within 45 days of receipt of a complete pre-construction notification whether the
ESA section 10(a)(1)(B) permit covers the proposed NWP activity or whether additional ESA section 7
consultation is required. (g) Information on the location of threatened and endangered species and their
critical habitat can be obtained directly from the offices of the FWS and NMFS or their world wide web
pages at http://www.fws.gov/ or http://www.fws.gov/ipac and http://www.nmfs.noaa.gov/pr/species/esa/
respectively.
19. Migratory Birds and Bald and Golden Eagles. The permittee is responsible for ensuring their action
complies with the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. The
permittee is responsible for contacting appropriate local office of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to
determine applicable measures to reduce impacts to migratory birds or eagles, including whether
“incidental take” permits are necessary and available under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act or Bald and
Golden Eagle Protection Act for a particular activity.
20. Historic Properties. (a) In cases where the district engineer determines that the activity may have the
potential to cause effects to properties listed, or eligible for listing, in the National Register of Historic
Places, the activity is not authorized, until the requirements of Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act (NHPA) have been satisfied. (b) Federal permittees should follow their own procedures
for complying with the requirements of section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. If pre-
construction notification is required for the proposed NWP activity, the Federal permittee must provide
the district engineer with the appropriate documentation to demonstrate compliance with those
requirements. The district engineer will verify that the appropriate documentation has been submitted. If
the appropriate documentation is not submitted, then additional consultation under section 106 may be
necessary. The respective federal agency is responsible for fulfilling its obligation to comply with section
106. (c) Non-federal permittees must submit a pre-construction notification to the district engineer if the
NWP activity might have the potential to cause effects to any historic properties listed on, determined to
be eligible for listing on, or potentially eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places,
including previously unidentified properties. For such activities, the pre-construction notification must
state which historic properties might have the potential to be affected by the proposed NWP activity or
include a vicinity map indicating the location of the historic properties or the potential for the presence of
historic properties. Assistance regarding information on the location of, or potential for, the presence of
historic properties can be sought from the State Historic Preservation Officer, Tribal Historic Preservation
Officer, or designated tribal representative, as appropriate, and the National Register of Historic Places
(see 33 CFR 330.4(g)). When reviewing pre-construction notifications, district engineers will comply
with the current procedures for addressing the requirements of section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act. The district engineer shall make a reasonable and good faith effort to carry out
7
appropriate identification efforts, which may include background research, consultation, oral history
interviews, sample field investigation, and field survey. Based on the information submitted in the PCN
and these identification efforts, the district engineer shall determine whether the proposed NWP activity
has the potential to cause effects on the historic properties. Section 106 consultation is not required when
the district engineer determines that the activity does not have the potential to cause effects on historic
properties (see 36 CFR 800.3(a)). Section 106 consultation is required when the district engineer
determines that the activity has the potential to cause effects on historic properties. The district engineer
will conduct consultation with consulting parties identified under 36 CFR 800.2(c) when he or she makes
any of the following effect determinations for the purposes of section 106 of the NHPA: no historic
properties affected, no adverse effect, or adverse effect. Where the non-Federal applicant has identified
historic properties on which the activity might have the potential to cause effects and so notified the
Corps, the non-Federal applicant shall not begin the activity until notified by the district engineer either
that the activity has no potential to cause effects to historic properties or that NHPA section 106
consultation has been completed. (d) For non-federal permittees, the district engineer will notify the
prospective permittee within 45 days of receipt of a complete pre-construction notification whether
NHPA section 106 consultation is required. If NHPA section 106 consultation is required, the district
engineer will notify the non-Federal applicant that he or she cannot begin the activity until section 106
consultation is completed. If the non-Federal applicant has not heard back from the Corps within 45 days,
the applicant must still wait for notification from the Corps. (e) Prospective permittees should be aware
that section 110k of the NHPA (54 U.S.C. 306113) prevents the Corps from granting a permit or other
assistance to an applicant who, with intent to avoid the requirements of section 106 of the NHPA, has
intentionally significantly adversely affected a historic property to which the permit would relate, or
having legal power to prevent it, allowed such significant adverse effect to occur, unless the Corps, after
consultation with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP), determines that circumstances
justify granting such assistance despite the adverse effect created or permitted by the applicant. If
circumstances justify granting the assistance, the Corps is required to notify the ACHP and provide
documentation specifying the circumstances, the degree of damage to the integrity of any historic
properties affected, and proposed mitigation. This documentation must include any views obtained from
the applicant, SHPO/THPO, appropriate Indian tribes if the undertaking occurs on or affects historic
properties on tribal lands or affects properties of interest to those tribes, and other parties known to have a
legitimate interest in the impacts to the permitted activity on historic properties.
21. Discovery of Previously Unknown Remains and Artifacts. If you discover any previously unknown
historic, cultural or archeological remains and artifacts while accomplishing the activity authorized by this
permit, you must immediately notify the district engineer of what you have found, and to the maximum
extent practicable, avoid construction activities that may affect the remains and artifacts until the required
coordination has been completed. The district engineer will initiate the Federal, Tribal, and state
coordination required to determine if the items or remains warrant a recovery effort or if the site is
eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places.
22. Designated Critical Resource Waters. Critical resource waters include, NOAA-managed marine
sanctuaries and marine monuments, and National Estuarine Research Reserves. The district engineer may
designate, after notice and opportunity for public comment, additional waters officially designated by a
state as having particular environmental or ecological significance, such as outstanding national resource
waters or state natural heritage sites. The district engineer may also designate additional critical resource
waters after notice and opportunity for public comment. (a) Discharges of dredged or fill material into
waters of the United States are not authorized by NWPs 7, 12, 14, 16, 17, 21, 29, 31, 35, 39, 40, 42, 43,
44, 49, 50, 51, and 52 for any activity within, or directly affecting, critical resource waters, including
wetlands adjacent to such waters. (b) For NWPs 3, 8, 10, 13, 15, 18, 19, 22, 23, 25, 27, 28, 30, 33, 34, 36,
37, 38, and 54, notification is required in accordance with general condition 32, for any activity proposed
in the designated critical resource waters including wetlands adjacent to those waters. The district
8
engineer may authorize activities under these NWPs only after it is determined that the impacts to the
critical resource waters will be no more than minimal.
23. Mitigation. The district engineer will consider the following factors when determining appropriate and
practicable mitigation necessary to ensure that the individual and cumulative adverse environmental
effects are no more than minimal: (a) The activity must be designed and constructed to avoid and
minimize adverse effects, both temporary and permanent, to waters of the United States to the maximum
extent practicable at the project site (i.e., on site). (b) Mitigation in all its forms (avoiding, minimizing,
rectifying, reducing, or compensating for resource losses) will be required to the extent necessary to
ensure that the individual and cumulative adverse environmental effects are no more than minimal.
(c) Compensatory mitigation at a minimum one-for-one ratio will be required for all wetland losses that
exceed 1/10-acre and require pre-construction notification, unless the district engineer determines in
writing that either some other form of mitigation would be more environmentally appropriate or the
adverse environmental effects of the proposed activity are no more than minimal, and provides an
activity-specific waiver of this requirement. For wetland losses of 1/10-acre or less that require pre-
construction notification, the district engineer may determine on a case-by-case basis that compensatory
mitigation is required to ensure that the activity results in only minimal adverse environmental effects.
(d) For losses of streams or other open waters that require pre-construction notification, the district
engineer may require compensatory mitigation to ensure that the activity results in no more than minimal
adverse environmental effects. Compensatory mitigation for losses of streams should be provided, if
practicable, through stream rehabilitation, enhancement, or preservation, since streams are difficult-to-
replace resources (see 33 CFR 332.3(e)(3)). (e) Compensatory mitigation plans for NWP activities in or
near streams or other open waters will normally include a requirement for the restoration or enhancement,
maintenance, and legal protection (e.g., conservation easements) of riparian areas next to open waters. In
some cases, the restoration or maintenance/protection of riparian areas may be the only compensatory
mitigation required. Restored riparian areas should consist of native species. The width of the required
riparian area will address documented water quality or aquatic habitat loss concerns. Normally, the
riparian area will be 25 to 50 feet wide on each side of the stream, but the district engineer may require
slightly wider riparian areas to address documented water quality or habitat loss concerns. If it is not
possible to restore or maintain/protect a riparian area on both sides of a stream, or if the waterbody is a
lake or coastal waters, then restoring or maintaining/protecting a riparian area along a single bank or
shoreline may be sufficient. Where both wetlands and open waters exist on the project site, the district
engineer will determine the appropriate compensatory mitigation (e.g., riparian areas and/or wetlands
compensation) based on what is best for the aquatic environment on a watershed basis. In cases where
riparian areas are determined to be the most appropriate form of minimization or compensatory
mitigation, the district engineer may waive or reduce the requirement to provide wetland compensatory
mitigation for wetland losses. (f) Compensatory mitigation projects provided to offset losses of aquatic
resources must comply with the applicable provisions of 33 CFR part 332.
(1) The prospective permittee is responsible for proposing an appropriate compensatory mitigation
option if compensatory mitigation is necessary to ensure that the activity results in no more than
minimal adverse environmental effects. For the NWPs, the preferred mechanism for providing
compensatory mitigation is mitigation bank credits or in-lieu fee program credits (see 33 CFR
332.3(b)(2) and (3)). However, if an appropriate number and type of mitigation bank or in-lieu credits
are not available at the time the PCN is submitted to the district engineer, the district engineer may
approve the use of permittee-responsible mitigation. (2) The amount of compensatory mitigation
required by the district engineer must be sufficient to ensure that the authorized activity results in no
more than minimal individual and cumulative adverse environmental effects (see 33 CFR
330.1(e)(3)). (See also 33 CFR 332.3(f)). (3) Since the likelihood of success is greater and the
impacts to potentially valuable uplands are reduced, aquatic resource restoration should be the first
compensatory mitigation option considered for permittee-responsible mitigation. (4) If permittee-
responsible mitigation is the proposed option, the prospective permittee is responsible for submitting
9
a mitigation plan. A conceptual or detailed mitigation plan may be used by the district engineer to
make the decision on the NWP verification request, but a final mitigation plan that addresses the
applicable requirements of 33 CFR 332.4(c)(2) through (14) must be approved by the district engineer
before the permittee begins work in waters of the United States, unless the district engineer
determines that prior approval of the final mitigation plan is not practicable or not necessary to ensure
timely completion of the required compensatory mitigation (see 33 CFR 332.3(k)(3)). (5) If
mitigation bank or in-lieu fee program credits are the proposed option, the mitigation plan only needs
to address the baseline conditions at the impact site and the number of credits to be provided. (6)
Compensatory mitigation requirements (e.g., resource type and amount to be provided as
compensatory mitigation, site protection, ecological performance standards, monitoring requirements)
may be addressed through conditions added to the NWP authorization, instead of components of a
compensatory mitigation plan (see 33 CFR 332.4(c)(1)(ii)).
(g) Compensatory mitigation will not be used to increase the acreage losses allowed by the acreage limits
of the NWPs. For example, if an NWP has an acreage limit of 1/2-acre, it cannot be used to authorize any
NWP activity resulting in the loss of greater than 1/2-acre of waters of the United States, even if
compensatory mitigation is provided that replaces or restores some of the lost waters. However,
compensatory mitigation can and should be used, as necessary, to ensure that an NWP activity already
meeting the established acreage limits also satisfies the no more than minimal impact requirement for the
NWPs. (h) Permittees may propose the use of mitigation banks, in-lieu fee programs, or permittee-
responsible mitigation. When developing a compensatory mitigation proposal, the permittee must
consider appropriate and practicable options consistent with the framework at 33 CFR 332.3(b). For
activities resulting in the loss of marine or estuarine resources, permittee-responsible mitigation may be
environmentally preferable if there are no mitigation banks or in-lieu fee programs in the area that have
marine or estuarine credits available for sale or transfer to the permittee. For permittee-responsible
mitigation, the special conditions of the NWP verification must clearly indicate the party or parties
responsible for the implementation and performance of the compensatory mitigation project, and, if
required, its long-term management. (i) Where certain functions and services of waters of the United
States are permanently adversely affected by a regulated activity, such as discharges of dredged or fill
material into waters of the United States that will convert a forested or scrub-shrub wetland to a
herbaceous wetland in a permanently maintained utility line right-of-way, mitigation may be required to
reduce the adverse environmental effects of the activity to the no more than minimal level.
24. Safety of Impoundment Structures. To ensure that all impoundment structures are safely designed,
the district engineer may require non-Federal applicants to demonstrate that the structures comply with
established state dam safety criteria or have been designed by qualified persons. The district engineer may
also require documentation that the design has been independently reviewed by similarly qualified
persons, and appropriate modifications made to ensure safety.
25. Water Quality. Where States and authorized Tribes, or EPA where applicable, have not previously
certified compliance of an NWP with CWA section 401, individual 401 Water Quality Certification must
be obtained or waived (see 33 CFR 330.4(c)). The district engineer or State or Tribe may require
additional water quality management measures to ensure that the authorized activity does not result in
more than minimal degradation of water quality.
26. Coastal Zone Management. In coastal states where an NWP has not previously received a state coastal
zone management consistency concurrence, an individual state coastal zone management consistency
concurrence must be obtained, or a presumption of concurrence must occur (see 33 CFR 330.4(d)). The
district engineer or a State may require additional measures to ensure that the authorized activity is
consistent with state coastal zone management requirements.
10
27. Regional and Case-By-Case Conditions. The activity must comply with any regional conditions that
may have been added by the Division Engineer (see 33 CFR 330.4(e)) and with any case specific
conditions added by the Corps or by the state, Indian Tribe, or U.S. EPA in its section 401 Water Quality
Certification, or by the state in its Coastal Zone Management Act consistency determination.
28. Use of Multiple Nationwide Permits. The use of more than one NWP for a single and complete
project is prohibited, except when the acreage loss of waters of the United States authorized by the NWPs
does not exceed the acreage limit of the NWP with the highest specified acreage limit. For example, if a
road crossing over tidal waters is constructed under NWP 14, with associated bank stabilization
authorized by NWP 13, the maximum acreage loss of waters of the United States for the total project
cannot exceed 1/3-acre.
29. Transfer of Nationwide Permit Verifications. If the permittee sells the property associated with a
nationwide permit verification, the permittee may transfer the nationwide permit verification to the new
owner by submitting a letter to the appropriate Corps district office to validate the transfer. A copy of the
nationwide permit verification must be attached to the letter, and the letter must contain the following
statement and signature: “When the structures or work authorized by this nationwide permit are still in
existence at the time the property is transferred, the terms and conditions of this nationwide permit,
including any special conditions, will continue to be binding on the new owner(s) of the property. To
validate the transfer of this nationwide permit and the associated liabilities associated with compliance
with its terms and conditions, have the transferee sign and date below.”

30. Compliance Certification. Each permittee who receives an NWP verification letter from the Corps
must provide a signed certification documenting completion of the authorized activity and
implementation of any required compensatory mitigation. The success of any required permittee-
responsible mitigation, including the achievement of ecological performance standards, will be addressed
separately by the district engineer. The Corps will provide the permittee the certification document with
the NWP verification letter. The certification document will include: (a) A statement that the authorized
activity was done in accordance with the NWP authorization, including any general, regional, or activity-
specific conditions; (b) A statement that the implementation of any required compensatory mitigation was
completed in accordance with the permit conditions. If credits from a mitigation bank or in-lieu fee
program are used to satisfy the compensatory mitigation requirements, the certification must include the
documentation required by 33 CFR 332.3(l)(3) to confirm that the permittee secured the appropriate
number and resource type of credits; and (c) The signature of the permittee certifying the completion of
the activity and mitigation. The completed certification document must be submitted to the district
engineer within 30 days of completion of the authorized activity or the implementation of any required
compensatory mitigation, whichever occurs later.
31. Activities Affecting Structures or Works Built by the United States. If an NWP activity also requires
permission from the Corps pursuant to 33 U.S.C. 408 because it will alter or temporarily or permanently
occupy or use a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) federally authorized Civil Works project (a
“USACE project”), the prospective permittee must submit a pre-construction notification. See paragraph
(b)(10) of general condition 32. An activity that requires section 408 permission is not authorized by
NWP until the appropriate Corps office issues the section 408 permission to alter, occupy, or use the
USACE project, and the district engineer issues a written NWP verification.
32. Pre-Construction Notification. (a) Timing. Where required by the terms of the NWP, the prospective
permittee must notify the district engineer by submitting a pre-construction notification (PCN) as early as
11
possible. The district engineer must determine if the PCN is complete within 30 calendar days of the date
of receipt and, if the PCN is determined to be incomplete, notify the prospective permittee within that 30
day period to request the additional information necessary to make the PCN complete. The request must
specify the information needed to make the PCN complete. As a general rule, district engineers will
request additional information necessary to make the PCN complete only once. However, if the
prospective permittee does not provide all of the requested information, then the district engineer will
notify the prospective permittee that the PCN is still incomplete and the PCN review process will not
commence until all of the requested information has been received by the district engineer. The
prospective permittee shall not begin the activity until either:
(1) He or she is notified in writing by the district engineer that the activity may proceed under the
NWP with any special conditions imposed by the district or division engineer; or
(2) 45 calendar days have passed from the district engineer’s receipt of the complete PCN and the
prospective permittee has not received written notice from the district or division engineer. However, if
the permittee was required to notify the Corps pursuant to general condition 18 that listed species or
critical habitat might be affected or are in the vicinity of the activity, or to notify the Corps pursuant to
general condition 20 that the activity might have the potential to cause effects to historic properties, the
permittee cannot begin the activity until receiving written notification from the Corps that there is “no
effect” on listed species or “no potential to cause effects” on historic properties, or that any consultation
required under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (see 33 CFR 330.4(f)) and/or section 106 of the
National Historic Preservation Act (see 33 CFR 330.4(g)) has been completed. Also, work cannot begin
under NWPs 21, 49, or 50 until the permittee has received written approval from the Corps. If the
proposed activity requires a written waiver to exceed specified limits of an NWP, the permittee may not
begin the activity until the district engineer issues the waiver. If the district or division engineer notifies
the permittee in writing that an individual permit is required within 45 calendar days of receipt of a
complete PCN, the permittee cannot begin the activity until an individual permit has been obtained.
Subsequently, the permittee’s right to proceed under the NWP may be modified, suspended, or revoked
only in accordance with the procedure set forth in 33 CFR 330.5(d)(2).
(b) Contents of Pre-Construction Notification: The PCN must be in writing and include the following
information:
(1) Name, address and telephone numbers of the prospective permittee;
(2) Location of the proposed activity;
(3) Identify the specific NWP or NWP(s) the prospective permittee wants to use to authorize
the proposed activity;
(4) A description of the proposed activity; the activity’s purpose; direct and indirect adverse
environmental effects the activity would cause, including the anticipated amount of loss of wetlands,
other special aquatic sites, and other waters expected to result from the NWP activity, in acres, linear
feet, or other appropriate unit of measure; a description of any proposed mitigation measures intended
to reduce the adverse environmental effects caused by the proposed activity; and any other NWP(s),
regional general permit(s), or individual permit(s) used or intended to be used to authorize any part of
the proposed project or any related activity, including other separate and distant crossings for linear
projects that require Department of the Army authorization but do not require pre-construction
notification. The description of the proposed activity and any proposed mitigation measures should be
sufficiently detailed to allow the district engineer to determine that the adverse environmental effects
of the activity will be no more than minimal and to determine the need for compensatory mitigation
or other mitigation measures. For single and complete linear projects, the PCN must include the
quantity of anticipated losses of wetlands, other special aquatic sites, and other waters for each single
and complete crossing of those wetlands, other special aquatic sites, and other waters. Sketches
should be provided when necessary to show that the activity complies with the terms of the NWP.
(Sketches usually clarify the activity and when provided results in a quicker decision. Sketches should
contain sufficient detail to provide an illustrative description of the proposed activity (e.g., a
conceptual plan), but do not need to be detailed engineering plans);
12
(5) The PCN must include a delineation of wetlands, other special aquatic sites, and other
waters, such as lakes and ponds, and perennial, intermittent, and ephemeral streams, on the project
site. Wetland delineations must be prepared in accordance with the current method required by the
Corps. The permittee may ask the Corps to delineate the special aquatic sites and other waters on the
project site, but there may be a delay if the Corps does the delineation, especially if the project site is
large or contains many wetlands, other special aquatic sites, and other waters. Furthermore, the 45
day period will not start until the delineation has been submitted to or completed by the Corps, as
appropriate;
(6) If the proposed activity will result in the loss of greater than 1/10-acre of wetlands and a
PCN is required, the prospective permittee must submit a statement describing how the mitigation
requirement will be satisfied, or explaining why the adverse environmental effects are no more than
minimal and why compensatory mitigation should not be required. As an alternative, the prospective
permittee may submit a conceptual or detailed mitigation plan.
(7) For non-Federal permittees, if any listed species or designated critical habitat might be
affected or is in the vicinity of the activity, or if the activity is located in designated critical habitat,
the PCN must include the name(s) of those endangered or threatened species that might be affected
by the proposed activity or utilize the designated critical habitat that might be affected by the
proposed activity. For NWP activities that require pre-construction notification, Federal permittees
must provide documentation demonstrating compliance with the Endangered Species Act;
(8) For non-Federal permittees, if the NWP activity might have the potential to cause effects
to a historic property listed on, determined to be eligible for listing on, or potentially eligible for
listing on, the National Register of Historic Places, the PCN must state which historic property might
have the potential to be affected by the proposed activity or include a vicinity map indicating the
location of the historic property. For NWP activities that require pre-construction notification, Federal
permittees must provide documentation demonstrating compliance with section 106 of the National
Historic Preservation Act;
(9) For an activity that will occur in a component of the National Wild and Scenic River
System, or in a river officially designated by Congress as a “study river” for possible inclusion in the
system while the river is in an official study status, the PCN must identify the Wild and Scenic River
or the “study river” (see general condition 16); and
(10) For an activity that requires permission from the Corps pursuant to 33 U.S.C. 408
because it will alter or temporarily or permanently occupy or use a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
federally authorized civil works project, the pre-construction notification must include a statement
confirming that the project proponent has submitted a written request for section 408 permission from
the Corps office having jurisdiction over that USACE project.
(c) Form of Pre-Construction Notification: The standard individual permit application form (Form ENG
4345) may be used, but the completed application form must clearly indicate that it is an NWP PCN and
must include all of the applicable information required in paragraphs (b)(1) through (10) of this general
condition. A letter containing the required information may also be used. Applicants may provide
electronic files of PCNs and supporting materials if the district engineer has established tools and
procedures for electronic submittals. (d) Agency Coordination: (1) The district engineer will consider any
comments from Federal and state agencies concerning the proposed activity’s compliance with the terms
and conditions of the NWPs and the need for mitigation to reduce the activity’s adverse environmental
effects so that they are no more than minimal. (2) Agency coordination is required for: (i) all NWP
activities that require pre-construction notification and result in the loss of greater than 1/2-acre of waters
of the United States; (ii) NWP 21, 29, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 50, 51, and 52 activities that require pre-
construction notification and will result in the loss of greater than 300 linear feet of stream bed; (iii) NWP
13 activities in excess of 500 linear feet, fills greater than one cubic yard per running foot, or involve
discharges of dredged or fill material into special aquatic sites; and (iv) NWP 54 activities in excess of
500 linear feet, or that extend into the waterbody more than 30 feet from the mean low water line in tidal
waters or the ordinary high water mark in the Great Lakes. (3) When agency coordination is required, the
district engineer will immediately provide (e.g., via e-mail, facsimile transmission, overnight mail, or
13
other expeditious manner) a copy of the complete PCN to the appropriate Federal or state offices (FWS,
state natural resource or water quality agency, EPA, and, if appropriate, the NMFS). With the exception
of NWP 37, these agencies will have 10 calendar days from the date the material is transmitted to notify
the district engineer via telephone, facsimile transmission, or e-mail that they intend to provide
substantive, site-specific comments. The comments must explain why the agency believes the adverse
environmental effects will be more than minimal. If so contacted by an agency, the district engineer will
wait an additional 15 calendar days before making a decision on the pre-construction notification. The
district engineer will fully consider agency comments received within the specified time frame
concerning the proposed activity’s compliance with the terms and conditions of the NWPs, including the
need for mitigation to ensure the net adverse environmental effects of the proposed activity are no more
than minimal. The district engineer will provide no response to the resource agency, except as provided
below. The district engineer will indicate in the administrative record associated with each pre-
construction notification that the resource agencies’ concerns were considered. For NWP 37, the
emergency watershed protection and rehabilitation activity may proceed immediately in cases where there
is an unacceptable hazard to life or a significant loss of property or economic hardship will occur. The
district engineer will consider any comments received to decide whether the NWP 37 authorization
should be modified, suspended, or revoked in accordance with the procedures at 33 CFR 330.5.
(4) In cases of where the prospective permittee is not a Federal agency, the district engineer will provide a
response to NMFS within 30 calendar days of receipt of any Essential Fish Habitat conservation
recommendations, as required by section 305(b)(4)(B) of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation
and Management Act. (5) Applicants are encouraged to provide the Corps with either electronic files or
multiple copies of pre-construction notifications to expedite agency coordination.
District Engineer’s Decision: 1. In reviewing the PCN for the proposed activity, the district engineer will
determine whether the activity authorized by the NWP will result in more than minimal individual or
cumulative adverse environmental effects or may be contrary to the public interest. If a project
proponent requests authorization by a specific NWP, the district engineer should issue the NWP
verification for that activity if it meets the terms and conditions of that NWP, unless he or she determines,
after considering mitigation, that the proposed activity will result in more than minimal individual and
cumulative adverse effects on the aquatic environment and other aspects of the public interest and
exercises discretionary authority to require an individual permit for the proposed activity. For a linear
project, this determination will include an evaluation of the individual crossings of waters of the United
States to determine whether they individually satisfy the terms and conditions of the NWP(s), as well as
the cumulative effects caused by all of the crossings authorized by NWP. If an applicant requests a waiver
of the 300 linear foot limit on impacts to streams or of an otherwise applicable limit, as provided for in
NWPs 13, 21, 29, 36, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 50, 51, 52, or 54, the district engineer will only grant the waiver
upon a written determination that the NWP activity will result in only minimal individual and cumulative
adverse environmental effects. For those NWPs that have a waivable 300 linear foot limit for losses of
intermittent and ephemeral stream bed and a 1/2-acre limit (i.e., NWPs 21, 29, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 50, 51,
and 52), the loss of intermittent and ephemeral stream bed, plus any other losses of jurisdictional waters
and wetlands, cannot exceed 1/2-acre. 2. When making minimal adverse environmental effects
determinations the district engineer will consider the direct and indirect effects caused by the NWP
activity. He or she will also consider the cumulative adverse environmental effects caused by activities
authorized by NWP and whether those cumulative adverse environmental effects are no more than
minimal. The district engineer will also consider site specific factors, such as the environmental setting in
the vicinity of the NWP activity, the type of resource that will be affected by the NWP activity, the
functions provided by the aquatic resources that will be affected by the NWP activity, the degree or
magnitude to which the aquatic resources perform those functions, the extent that aquatic resource
functions will be lost as a result of the NWP activity (e.g., partial or complete loss), the duration of the
adverse effects (temporary or permanent), the importance of the aquatic resource functions to the region
(e.g., watershed or ecoregion), and mitigation required by the district engineer. If an appropriate
functional or condition assessment method is available and practicable to use, that assessment method
14
may be used by the district engineer to assist in the minimal adverse environmental effects determination.
The district engineer may add case-specific special conditions to the NWP authorization to address site-
specific environmental concerns. 3. If the proposed activity requires a PCN and will result in a loss of
greater than 1/10-acre of wetlands, the prospective permittee should submit a mitigation proposal with the
PCN. Applicants may also propose compensatory mitigation for NWP activities with smaller impacts, or
for impacts to other types of waters (e.g., streams). The district engineer will consider any proposed
compensatory mitigation or other mitigation measures the applicant has included in the proposal in
determining whether the net adverse environmental effects of the proposed activity are no more than
minimal. The compensatory mitigation proposal may be either conceptual or detailed. If the district
engineer determines that the activity complies with the terms and conditions of the NWP and that the
adverse environmental effects are no more than minimal, after considering mitigation, the district
engineer will notify the permittee and include any activity-specific conditions in the NWP verification the
district engineer deems necessary. Conditions for compensatory mitigation requirements must comply
with the appropriate provisions at 33 CFR 332.3(k). The district engineer must approve the final
mitigation plan before the permittee commences work in waters of the United States, unless the district
engineer determines that prior approval of the final mitigation plan is not practicable or not necessary to
ensure timely completion of the required compensatory mitigation. If the prospective permittee elects to
submit a compensatory mitigation plan with the PCN, the district engineer will expeditiously review the
proposed compensatory mitigation plan. The district engineer must review the proposed compensatory
mitigation plan within 45 calendar days of receiving a complete PCN and determine whether the proposed
mitigation would ensure the NWP activity results in no more than minimal adverse environmental effects.
If the net adverse environmental effects of the NWP activity (after consideration of the mitigation
proposal) are determined by the district engineer to be no more than minimal, the district engineer will
provide a timely written response to the applicant. The response will state that the NWP activity can
proceed under the terms and conditions of the NWP, including any activity-specific conditions added to
the NWP authorization by the district engineer. 4. If the district engineer determines that the adverse
environmental effects of the proposed activity are more than minimal, then the district engineer will
notify the applicant either: (a) that the activity does not qualify for authorization under the NWP and
instruct the applicant on the procedures to seek authorization under an individual permit; (b) that the
activity is authorized under the NWP subject to the applicant’s submission of a mitigation plan that would
reduce the adverse environmental effects so that they are no more than minimal; or (c) that the activity is
authorized under the NWP with specific modifications or conditions. Where the district engineer
determines that mitigation is required to ensure no more than minimal adverse environmental effects, the
activity will be authorized within the 45-day PCN period (unless additional time is required to comply
with general conditions 18, 20, and/or 31, or to evaluate PCNs for activities authorized by NWPs 21, 49,
and 50), with activity-specific conditions that state the mitigation requirements. The authorization will
include the necessary conceptual or detailed mitigation plan or a requirement that the applicant submit a
mitigation plan that would reduce the adverse environmental effects so that they are no more than
minimal. When compensatory mitigation is required, no work in waters of the United States may occur
until the district engineer has approved a specific mitigation plan or has determined that prior approval of
a final mitigation plan is not practicable or not necessary to ensure timely completion of the required
compensatory mitigation.
Further Information: 1. District Engineers have authority to determine if an activity complies with the
terms and conditions of an NWP. 2. NWPs do not obviate the need to obtain other federal, state, or local
permits, approvals, or authorizations required by law. 3. NWPs do not grant any property rights or
exclusive privileges. 4. NWPs do not authorize any injury to the property or rights of others. 5. NWPs do
not authorize interference with any existing or proposed Federal project (see general condition 31).
C. CORPS SEATTLE DISTRICT REGIONAL GENERAL CONDITIONS: The following conditions
apply to all NWPs for the Seattle District in Washington State, unless specified.
15
1. Project Drawings: Drawings must be submitted with pre-construction notification (PCN). Drawings
must provide a clear understanding of the proposed project, and how waters of the U.S. will be affected.
Drawings must be originals and not reduced copies of large-scale plans. Engineering drawings are not
required. Existing and proposed site conditions (manmade and landscape features) must be drawn to
scale.
2. Aquatic Resources Requiring Special Protection: Activities resulting in a loss of waters of the
United States in mature forested wetlands, bogs and peatlands, aspen-dominated wetlands, alkali
wetlands, vernal pools, camas prairie wetlands, estuarine wetlands, wetlands in coastal lagoons, and
wetlands in dunal systems along the Washington coast cannot be authorized by a NWP, except by the
following NWPs:
NWP 3 – Maintenance
NWP 20 – Response Operations for Oil and Hazardous Substances
NWP 32 – Completed Enforcement Actions
NWP 38 – Cleanup of Hazardous and Toxic Waste
In order to use one of the above-referenced NWPs in any of the aquatic resources requiring special
protection, prospective permittees must submit a PCN to the Corps of Engineers (see NWP general
condition 32) and obtain written authorization before commencing work.
3. New Bank Stabilization in Tidal Waters of Puget Sound: Activities involving new bank
stabilization in tidal waters in Water Resource Inventory Areas (WRIAs)
8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 (within the areas identified on Figures 1a through 1e on Corps website) cannot be
authorized by NWP.
4. Commencement Bay: The following NWPs may not be used to authorize activities located in the
Commencement Bay Study Area (see Figure 2 on Corps website):
NWP 12 – Utility Line Activities (substations)
NWP 13 – Bank Stabilization
NWP 14 – Linear Transportation Projects
NWP 23 – Approved Categorical Exclusions
NWP 29 – Residential Developments
NWP 39 – Commercial and Institutional Developments
NWP 40 – Agricultural Activities
NWP 41 – Reshaping Existing Drainage Ditches
NWP 42 – Recreational Facilities
NWP 43 – Stormwater and Wastewater Management Facilities
5. Bank Stabilization: All projects including new or maintenance bank stabilization activities require
PCN to the Corps of Engineers (see NWP general condition 32). For new bank stabilization projects only,
the following must be submitted to the Corps of Engineers:
a. The cause of the erosion and the distance of any existing structures from the area(s) being
stabilized.
b. The type and length of existing bank stabilization within 300 feet of the proposed project.
c. A description of current conditions and expected post-project conditions in the waterbody.
d. A statement describing how the project incorporates elements avoiding and minimizing adverse
environmental effects to the aquatic environment and nearshore riparian area, including vegetation
impacts in the waterbody.
In addition to a. through d., the results from any relevant geotechnical investigations can be submitted
with the PCN if it describes current or expected conditions in the waterbody.
6. Crossings of Waters of the United States: Any project including installing, replacing, or modifying
crossings of waters of the United States, such as culverts or bridges, requires submittal of a PCN to the
16
Corps of Engineers (see NWP general condition 32). If a culvert is proposed to cross waters of the U.S.
where salmonid species are present or could be present, the project must apply the stream simulation
design method from the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife located in the Water Crossing
Design Guidelines (2013), or a design method which provides passage at all life stages at all flows where
the salmonid species would naturally seek passage. If the stream simulation design method is not applied
for a culvert where salmonid species are present or could be present, the project proponent must provide a
rationale in the PCN sufficient to establish one of the following:
a. The existence of extraordinary site conditions.
b. How the proposed design will provide equivalent or better fish passage and fisheries habitat
benefits than the stream simulation design method.
If a culvert is proposed to cross waters of the U.S. where salmonid species are present or could be present,
project proponents must provide a monitoring plan with the PCN that specifies how the proposed culvert
will be assessed over a five-year period from the time of construction completion to ensure its
effectiveness in providing passage at all life stages at all flows where the salmonid species would
naturally seek passage. Culverts installed under emergency authorization that do not meet the above
design criteria will be required to meet the above design criteria to receive an after-the-fact nationwide
permit verification.
7. Stream Loss: A PCN is required for all activities that result in the loss of any linear feet of stream
beds. No activity shall result in the loss of any linear feet of perennial stream beds or the loss of greater
than 300 linear feet of intermittent and/or ephemeral stream beds. A stream may be rerouted if it is
designed in a manner that maintains or restores hydrologic, ecologic, and geomorphic stream processes,
provided there is not a reduction in the linear feet of stream bed. Streams include brooks, creeks, rivers,
and historical waters of the U.S. that have been channelized into ditches. This condition does not apply to
ditches constructed in uplands. Stream loss restrictions may be waived by the district engineer on a case-
by-case basis provided the activities result in net increases of aquatic resource functions and services.
8. Mitigation: Pre-construction notification is required for any project that will result in permanent
wetland losses that exceed 1,000 square feet. In addition to the requirements of General Condition 23
(Mitigation), compensatory mitigation at a minimum one-to-one ratio will be required for all permanent
wetland losses that exceed 1,000 square feet. When a PCN is required for wetland losses less than 1,000
square feet, the Corps of Engineers may determine on a case-by-case basis that compensatory mitigation
is required to ensure that the activity results in minimal adverse effects on the aquatic environment.
Compensatory mitigation for impacts to marine waters, lakes, and streams will be determined on a case-
by-case basis. If temporary impacts to waters of the U.S. exceed six months, the Corps of Engineers may
require compensatory mitigation for temporal effects.
9. Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act – Essential Fish Habitat
Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) is defined as those waters and substrate necessary to fish for spawning,
breeding, feeding, or growth to maturity. If EFH may be adversely affected by a proposed activity, the
prospective permittee must provide a written EFH assessment with an analysis of the effects of the
proposed action on EFH. The assessment must identify the type(s) of essential fish habitat (i.e., Pacific
salmon, groundfish, and/or coastal-pelagic species) that may be affected. If the Corps of Engineers
determines the project will adversely affect EFH, consultation with NOAA Fisheries will be required.
Federal agencies should follow their own procedures for complying with the requirements of the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act. If PCN is required for the proposed
activity, Federal permittees must provide the district engineer with the appropriate documentation to
demonstrate compliance with those requirements.
10. Forage Fish: For projects in forage fish spawning habitat, in-water work must occur within
designated forage fish work windows, or when forage fish are not spawning. If working outside of a
designated work window, or if forage fish work windows are closed year round, work may occur if the
17
work window restriction is released for a period of time after a forage fish spawning survey has been
conducted by a biologist approved by the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW).
Forage fish species with designated in-water work windows include Pacific sand lance (Ammodytes
hexapterus), Pacific herring (Clupea pallasi), and surf smelt (Hypomesus pretiosus). This RGC does not
apply to NWP 48, Commercial Shellfish Aquaculture Activities. Please see specific regional conditions
for NWP 48.
11. Notification of Permit Requirements: The permittee must provide a copy of the nationwide permit
authorization letter, conditions, and permit drawings to all contractors and any other parties performing
the authorized work prior to the commencement of any work in waters of the U.S. The permittee must
ensure all appropriate contractors and any other parties performing the authorized work at the project site
have read and understand relevant NWP conditions as well as plans, approvals, and documents referenced
in the NWP letter. A copy of these documents must be maintained onsite throughout the duration of
construction.
12. Construction Boundaries: Permittees must clearly mark all construction area boundaries before
beginning work on projects that involve grading or placement of fill. Boundary markers and/or
construction fencing must be maintained and clearly visible for the duration of construction. Permittees
should avoid and minimize removal of native vegetation (including submerged aquatic vegetation) to the
maximum extent possible.
13. Temporary Impacts and Site Restoration
a. Temporary impacts to waters of the U.S. must not exceed six months unless the prospective permittee
requests and receives a waiver by the district engineer. Temporary impacts to waters of the U.S. must
be identified in the PCN.
b. No more than 1/2 acre of waters of the U.S. may be temporarily filled unless the prospective permittee
requests and receives a waiver from the district engineer (temporary fills do not affect specified limits
for loss of waters associated with specific nationwide permits).
c. Native soils removed from waters of the U.S. for project construction should be stockpiled and used
for site restoration. Restoration of temporarily disturbed areas must include returning the area to pre-
project ground surface contours. If native soil is not available from the project site for restoration,
suitable clean soil of the same textural class may be used. Other soils may be used only if identified in
the PCN.
d. The permittee must revegetate disturbed areas with native plant species sufficient in number, spacing,
and diversity to restore affected functions. A maintenance and monitoring plan commensurate with
the impacts, may be required. Revegetation must begin as soon as site conditions allow within the
same growing season as the disturbance unless the schedule is approved by the Corps of Engineers.
Native plants removed from waters of the U.S. for project construction should be stockpiled and used
for revegetation when feasible. Temporary Erosion and Sediment Control measures must be removed
as soon as the area has established vegetation sufficient to control erosion and sediment.
e. If the Corps determines the project will result in temporary impacts of submerged aquatic vegetation
(SAV) that are more than minimal, a monitoring plan must be submitted. If recovery is not achieved
by the end of the monitoring period, contingencies must be implemented, and additional monitoring
will be required.
This RGC does not apply to NWP 48, Commercial Shellfish Aquaculture Activities. Please see specific
regional conditions for NWP 48.
D. CORPS REGIONAL SPECIFIC CONDITIONS FOR THIS NWP:
1. A pre-construction notification (PCN) must be submitted to the district engineer (see NWP general
condition 32) for any proposed project located in a Department of the Army permit compensatory
mitigation site, Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (Superfund)
18
site, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act hazardous waste clean-up site, Washington State
Department of Ecology compensatory mitigation site, or Washington State Model Toxics Control Act
clean-up site.
2. For projects subject to PCN, if there is a loss of waters of the U.S., the project proponent must explain
in the PCN why the loss is necessary and show how it would be fully offset by the beneficial elements of
the project.
3. The PCN must contain a description of pre-project site conditions (including photographs), aquatic
functions the site provides, and benefits anticipated from project construction.
4. The project proponent must include maintenance and monitoring plans with the PCN.
5. Restoration projects involving shellfish seeding must use shellfish native to the watershed.
E. ECOLOGY 401 CERTIFICATION: GENERAL CONDITIONS
In addition to all the Corps National and Seattle Districts’ Regional permit conditions, the following State
General Section 401 Water Quality Certification (Section 401) conditions apply to all Nationwide Permits
whether certified or partially certified in the State of Washington.
1. For in-water construction activities. Ecology Section 401 review is required for projects or
activities authorized under NWPs that will cause, or may be likely to cause or contribute to an exceedance
of a State water quality standard (Chapter 173-201A WAC) or sediment management standard (Chapter
173-204 WAC). State water quality standards and sediment management standards are available on
Ecology’s website. Note: In-water activities include any activity within a wetland and/or activities below
the ordinary high water mark (OHWM).
2. Projects or Activities Discharging to Impaired Waters. Ecology Section 401 review is required for
projects or activities authorized under NWPs if the project or activity will occur in a 303(d) listed
segment of a waterbody or upstream of a listed segment and may result in further exceedances of the
specific listed parameter. To determine if your project or activity is in a 303(d) listed segment of a
waterbody, visit Ecology’s Water Quality Assessment webpage for maps and search tools.
3. Application. For projects or activities that will require Ecology Section 401 review, applicants must
provide Ecology with a Joint Aquatic Resources Permit Application (JARPA) along with the
documentation provided to the Corps, as described in National General Condition 32, Pre-Construction
Notification, including, when applicable: (a) A description of the project, including site plans, project
purpose, direct and indirect adverse environmental effects the project would cause, best management
practices (BMPs), and any other Department of the Army or federal agency permits used or intended to be
used to authorize any part of the proposed project or any related activity. (b) Drawings indicating the
Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM), delineation of special aquatic sites and other waters of the state.
Wetland delineations must be prepared in accordance with the current method required by the Corps and
shall include Ecology’s Wetland Rating form. Wetland rating forms are subject to review and verification
by Ecology staff. Guidance for determining the OHWM is available on Ecology’s website. (c) A
statement describing how the mitigation requirement will be satisfied. A conceptual or detailed mitigation
or restoration plan may be submitted. See State General Condition 5 for details on mitigation
requirements. (d) Other applicable requirements of Corps Nationwide Permit General Condition 32,
Corps Regional Conditions, or notification conditions of the applicable NWP. (e) Within 180 calendar
days from receipt of applicable documents noted above and a copy of the final authorization letter from
the Corps providing coverage for a proposed project or activity under the NWP Program Ecology will
provide the applicant notice of whether an individual Section 401 will be required for the project. If
19
Ecology fails to act within a year after receipt of both of these documents, Section 401 is presumed
waived.
4. Aquatic resources requiring special protection. Certain aquatic resources are unique, difficult-to-
replace components of the aquatic environment in Washington State. Activities that would affect these
resources must be avoided to the greatest extent possible. Compensating for adverse impacts to high
value aquatic resources is typically difficult, prohibitively expensive, and may not be possible in some
landscape settings. Ecology Section 401 review is required for activities in or affecting the following
aquatic resources (and not prohibited by Seattle District Regional General Condition): (a) Wetlands with
special characteristics (as defined in the Washington State Wetland Rating Systems for western and
eastern Washington, Ecology Publications #14-06-029 and #14-06-030):
• Estuarine wetlands.
• Wetlands of High Conservation Value.
• Bogs.
• Old-growth and mature forested wetlands.
• Wetlands in coastal lagoons.
• Interdunal wetlands.
• Vernal pools.
• Alkali wetlands.
(b) Fens, aspen-dominated wetlands, camas prairie wetlands. (c) Marine water with eelgrass (Zostera
marina) beds (except for NWP 48). (d) Category I wetlands. (e) Category II wetlands with a habitat score
≥ 8 points. This State General Condition does not apply to the following Nationwide Permits:
NWP 20 – Response Operations for Oil and Hazardous Substances, NWP 32 – Completed Enforcement
Actions
5. Mitigation. Applicants are required to show that they have followed the mitigation sequence and
have first avoided and minimized impacts to aquatic resources wherever practicable. For projects
requiring Ecology Section 401 review with unavoidable impacts to aquatics resources, adequate
compensatory mitigation must be provided.
(a) Wetland mitigation plans submitted for Ecology review and approval shall be based on the most
current guidance provided in Wetland Mitigation in Washington State, Parts 1 and 2 (available on
Ecology’s website) and shall, at a minimum, include the following:
i. A description of the measures taken to avoid and minimize impacts to wetlands and other waters of
the U.S.
ii. The nature of the proposed impacts (i.e., acreage of wetlands and functions lost or degraded).
iii. The rationale for the mitigation site that was selected.
iv. The goals and objectives of the compensatory mitigation project.
v. How the mitigation project will be accomplished, including construction sequencing, best
management practices to protect water quality, proposed performance standards for measuring success
and the proposed buffer widths.
vi. How it will be maintained and monitored to assess progress towards goals and objectives.
Monitoring will generally be required for a minimum of five years. For forested and scrub-shrub
wetlands, 10 years of monitoring will often be necessary.
vii. How the compensatory mitigation site will be legally protected for the long term.
Refer to Wetland Mitigation in Washington State – Part 2: Developing Mitigation Plans (Ecology
Publication #06-06-011b) and Selecting Wetland Mitigation Sites Using a Watershed Approach (Ecology
Publications #09-06-032 (Western Washington) and #10-06-007 (Eastern Washington)) for guidance on
selecting suitable mitigation sites and developing mitigation plans. Ecology encourages the use of
alternative mitigation approaches, including credit/debit methodology, advance mitigation, and other
programmatic approach such as mitigation banks and in-lieu fee programs. If you are interested in
proposing use of an alternative mitigation approach, consult with the appropriate Ecology regional staff
person. Information on alternative mitigation approaches is available on Ecology’s website.
20
(b) Mitigation for other aquatic resource impacts will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
6. Temporary Fills. Ecology Section 401 review is required for any project or activity with temporary
fill in wetlands or other waters of the state for more than 90 days, unless the applicant has received
written approval from Ecology. Note: This State General Condition does not apply to projects or activities
authorized under NWP 33, Temporary Construction, Access, and Dewatering
7. Stormwater pollution prevention: All projects that involve land disturbance or impervious surfaces
must implement stormwater pollution prevention or control measures to avoid discharge of pollutants in
stormwater runoff to waters of the State.
(a) For land disturbances during construction, the applicant must obtain and implement permits (e.g.,
Construction Stormwater General Permit) where required and follow Ecology’s current stormwater
manual.
(b) Following construction, prevention or treatment of on-going stormwater runoff from impervious
surfaces shall be provided.
Ecology’s Stormwater Management and Design Manuals and stormwater permit information are available
on Ecology’s website.
8. State Section 401 Review for PCNs not receiving 45-day response from the Seattle District. In the
event the Seattle District Corps does not issue a NWP authorization letter within 45 calendar days of
receipt of a complete pre-construction notification, the applicant must contact Ecology for Section 401
review prior to commencing work.
F. ECOLOGY 401 CERTIFICATION: SPECIFIC CONDITIONS FOR THIS NWP:

Renton, City of
(Madsen Creek
Sediment Basin)
Dear Mr. Straka:
We have reviewed your application to discharge up to 2 cubic yards of fill to create a
temporary diversion dam, in the Madsen Creek near Renton, King County, Washington.
Additional work would include the remove up to 1,000 cubic yards of accumulated sediments in
the basin by excavation, and conduct minor maintenance activities such as moving boulders,
woody debris, and vegetation in the Madsen Creek sediment Basin. This work is authorized to
be conducted annually for up to 5 years. Based on the information you provided to us,
Nationwide Permit (NWP) 3, Maintenance (Federal Register January 6, 2017, Vol. 82, No. 4),
authorizes your proposal as depicted on the enclosed drawings dated February 1, 2018.
In order for this authorization to be valid, you must ensure the work is performed in
accordance with the enclosed NWP 3, Terms and Conditions and the following special
conditions:
a.In order to meet the requirements of the Endangered Species Act you may conduct the
authorized activities from July 1 through August 31 in any year this permit is valid. You shall
not conduct work authorized by this permit from September 1 through June 30 in any year this
permit is valid.
b. You must implement and abide by the Endangered Species Act (ESA) requirements
and/or agreements set forth in the Abbreviated Biological Evaluation (BE) dated June 7, 2012, in
its entirety. The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) provided the enclosed Letter of
Concurrence (LOC) with a finding of “may affect, not likely to adversely affect” based on this
document and a statement from WDFW, on March 14, 2019 (NMFS Reference Number WCR-
-2-
2019-10902). The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) provided the enclosed LOC with a
finding of “may affect, not likely to adversely affect” based on this document on November 28,
2018 (USFWS Reference Number 01EWFW00-2019-I-0070). Both agencies will be informed
of this permit issuance. Failure to comply with the commitments made in this consultation
constitutes non-compliance with the ESA and your U.S. Army Corps of Engineers permit. The
USFWS/NMFS is the appropriate authority to determine compliance with ESA.
c.Incidents where any individuals of fish species, marine mammals and/or sea turtles listed
by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Fisheries (NOAA Fisheries) under the
Endangered Species Act appear to be injured or killed as a result of discharges of dredged or fill
material into waters of the U.S. or structures or work in navigable waters of the U.S. authorized
by this Nationwide Permit verification shall be reported to NOAA Fisheries, Office of Protected
Resources at (301) 713-1401 and the Regulatory Office of the Seattle District of the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers at (206) 764-3495. The finder should leave the animal alone, make note of
any circumstances likely causing the death or injury, note the location and number of individuals
involved and, if possible, take photographs. Adult animals should not be disturbed unless
circumstances arise where they are obviously injured or killed by discharge exposure or some
unnatural cause. The finder may be asked to carry out instructions provided by NOAA Fisheries
to collect specimens or take other measures to ensure that evidence intrinsic to the specimen is
preserved.
We have reviewed your project pursuant to the requirements of the Endangered Species Act,
the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act and the National Historic
Preservation Act. We have determined this project complies with the requirements of these laws
provided you comply with all of the permit general and special conditions.
Please note that National General Condition 21, Discovery of Previously Unknown Remains
and Artifacts, found in the Nationwide Permit Terms and Conditions enclosure, details
procedures that must be followed should an inadvertent discovery occur. You must ensure that
you comply with this condition during the construction of your project.
The authorized work complies with the Washington State Department of Ecology’s
(Ecology) Water Quality Certification (WQC) requirements and Coastal Zone Management
(CZM) consistency determination response for this NWP. No further coordination with Ecology
for WQC and CZM is required.
You have not requested a jurisdictional determination for this proposed project. If you
believe the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers does not have jurisdiction over all or portions of your
project you may request a preliminary or approved jurisdictional determination (JD). If one is
requested, please be aware that we may require the submittal of additional information to
-3-
complete the JD and work authorized in this letter may not occur until the JD has been
completed.
Our verification of this NWP authorization is valid until March 18, 2022, unless the NWP is
modified, reissued, or revoked prior to that date. If the authorized work has not been completed
by that date and you have commenced or are under contract to commence this activity before
March 18, 2022, you will have until March 18, 2023, to complete the activity under the enclosed
terms and conditions of this NWP. Failure to comply with all terms and conditions of this NWP
verification invalidates this authorization and could result in a violation of Section 404 of the
Clean Water Act. You must also obtain all local, State, and other Federal permits that apply to
this project.
You are cautioned that any change in project location or plans will require that you submit a
copy of the revised plans to this office and obtain our approval before you begin work. Deviating
from the approved plans could result in the assessment of criminal or civil penalties.
Upon completing the authorized work, you must fill out and return the enclosed Certificate
of Compliance with Department of the Army Permit. Thank you for your cooperation during the
