Initially,theRegulatoryDivisionservedafairlysimple,straightforwardpurpose:toprotectandmaintain thenavigablecapacityofthenation swaters,undersection10oftheriversandharborsactof1899.in 1972,theCleanWaterActwassignedintolaw,andtheDepartmentoftheArmywasdirectedtoadminister Section404oftheAct,whichregulatesthedischargeofdredgedand/orfillmaterialinwatersoftheUnited States.In1977,theU.S.ArmyCorpsofEngineersjurisdictionincludedwetlandsaspartof watersofthe U.S. The Corps of Engineers responsibility to regulate discharges of dredged and/or fill material in wetlands include the wetlands of the Municipality of Anchorage.This chapter is limited to freshwater wetlands becausetheanchoragewetlandsmanagementplanfocusesonlyonfreshwaterwetlandsnotassociated withstateparklands,nationalforestlands,andmostmilitarylands. ThroughtheRegulatoryProgram,theCorpsofEngineersensuresthatenvironmentalimpactsonaquatic resources from permitted projects are avoided, minimized or mitigated. The Corps of Engineers is dedicated to protecting Alaska s waters while allowing reasonable and necessary development to move forward. The decision whether to issue a permit is based on an evaluation of the probable impact including cumulative impacts of the proposed activity on the public interest.that decision reflects the national concernforbothprotectionandutilizationofimportantresources.thebenefitthatreasonablymaybe expectedtoresultfromtheproposalmustbebalancedagainstitsreasonable,foreseeabledetriments. Allfactorswhichmayberelevanttotheproposalareconsidered.Thosefactorsinclude,butarenotlimited to: Conservationofwetlands recreation aesthetics watersupply economics waterquality generalenvironmentalconcerns energyneeds historicvalues safety flooddamageprevention foodproduction landuse in general, the needs and welfare of the navigation people ItshouldbeemphasizedthatapermitissuedbytheCorpsofEngineersunderSection404authorizesonly theplacement(discharge)ofdredgedorfillmaterialintowatersoftheu.s.,includingwetlands.however, the applicant for a permit must specify the purpose and need for that discharge.apermitee may not changetheuseofhisorherfillwithoutpermissionfromthecorpsofengineers.

2 TypicalactivitiesinwatersoftheU.S.requiringauthorizationunderSection404include: Dischargingdredgedand/orfillmaterial; Sitedevelopment fillforresidential,commercialorrecreationalprojects,including mechanizedlandclearing; Constructionofbreakwaters,levees,dams,dikesandweirs; Placementofriprap;and Roadfills. Certain types of work have been exempted from the permit requirement by the Clean Water Act. However,theseactivitiesareexemptonlyiftheydonotchangetheuseofwatersoftheUnitedStates,do notalterthefloworcirculationofwatersoftheu.s.,anddonotreducethereachofsuchwatersoftheu.s. TheseexemptionsareoutlinedinSection404(f)oftheCleanWaterAct. There are three types of permits that the Corps of Engineers issues under Section 404 within the Municipality of Anchorage.These include Individual Permits, Regional General Permits, and Nationwide Permits.Though a project may qualify for use of a Regional General Permit or Nationwide Permit as describedbelow,ifitisexpectedtherewillbemodificationsanddesignchangesthroughoutthelifeofa project, the applicant should request an Individual Permit as Regional General Permits and Nationwide Permitscannotbemodified.

B. REGIONALGENERALPERMITS Regional General Permits are issued by the Corps of Engineers, Alaska District Engineer for a general category of activities when theactivitiesare similar in nature and cause minimal environmental impact, bothindividuallyandcumulatively. TheCorpsreissuedfiveRegionalGeneralPermitsintheMunicipalityofAnchorageonApril15,2010,which coverpermittingin C designatedwetlandsasclassifiedintheanchoragewetlandsmanagementplan. Depending on the specifics of the project, opinions of compliance for regulated activities under these Regional General Permits have been administered by the Municipality of Anchorage s Community DevelopmentDepartmentorverifiedbytheCorps.RegionalGeneralPermitsaregenerallyissuedfor5year periods.thecurrentregionalgeneralpermitsforthemunicipalityofanchoragewillexpireonapril15, 2015.SincetheRegionalGeneralPermitsexpireevery5years,itisimportanttoensurethelatestRegional General Permits are reviewed for eligibility of projects.copies of the current version can be obtained throughthemunicipalityofanchorage scommunitydevelopmentdepartmentorthecorpsofengineers.

NATIONWIDEPERMITS NationwidePermits(NWP)authorizespecificactivitiesinareasundertheCorpsofEngineersregulatory jurisdiction.these activities are minor in scope and must result in no more than minimal adverse impacts, when considered individually or cumulatively.individuals wishing to perform work under a NWP must ensure their project meets all applicable terms and conditions, including the regional conditionsspecifictoalaska.thecorpsofengineerswillverifythis,afterreceiptofapreconstruction Notification (PCN).Verifications issued for particular projects are good for only two years.if the conditionsofthenwpcannotbemet,aregionalgeneralpermitorindividualpermitwillberequired.

As a local example, the use of LOPs in Anchorage have been primarilyfordockstructuresconstructedincampbelllake. II. WETLANDSDETERMINATIONRESPONSIBILITY TheCorps regulationspertainingtotheissuanceofsection404permitsidentifieswetlandsaspartofthe watersoftheu.s.overwhichthecorpshasjurisdiction.thecorpsandepadefinewetlandsasthoseareas that are inundated or saturated by surface or ground water at a frequency and duration sufficient to support,andthatundernormalcircumstancesdosupport,aprevalenceofvegetationtypicallyadaptedfor life in saturated soil conditions.wetlands generally include swamps, marshes, bogs and similar areas. Somewetlands,suchasswampsormarshes,areoftenobvious,butothertypessuchasforestedwetlands, maynotbeeasilyrecognizedbecausetheycanbedryduringpartoftheyearordonotappeartobewetat thesurface. To delineate wetlands based upon this definition, a scientific process is followed using the Corps of EngineersWetland Delineation Manual (1987) and the Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers WetlandDelineationManual:AlaskaRegion,Version2.0(COE,2007).Onlyifanareaexhibitspositive criteriaforwetlandplants,soilsandhydrology(threeparameters)isitdeterminedtobeawetlandunder theregulatoryprogram.
