Interested parties are hereby notified the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Portland District (Corps) is updating our list of individuals and organizations interested in receiving notification of Regulatory Branch non-project specific and standard individual permit public notices. The Regulatory Branch issues public notices soliciting public comments on proposed projects requiring standard individual permits issued by the Department of the Army, also known as Corps permits, as well as non-project specific public notices announcing Regulatory Branch updates.
Electronic versions of public notices will be emailed, as an attachment, to those individuals and organizations who request to be on our electronic distribution lists. The notices will also be available on the Portland District’s web page at https://www.nwp.usace.army.mil/Missions/Regulatory/.
The Regulatory Branch will continue to provide notice of public notice availability to property owners adjacent to proposed projects subject to standard individual permits, and individuals who do not have access to the internet or email. These notifications include a paper copy of the public notice with all attachments through the U.S. mail.
The Portland District Regulatory Branch has jurisdiction over the state of Oregon, southern Washington ports, and restoration projects in the Columbia River estuary funded by the Bonneville Power Administration. Public Notice distribution lists for proposed projects are organized by the states of Oregon and Washington, as well as Oregon counties, communities, and watersheds. We can notify you of proposed projects subject to standard individual permit review in the state of Oregon, the Portland District’s area of jurisdiction in the state of Washington, or in any or all Oregon counties, communities, or watersheds.
As we update our distribution lists, we are requesting the following replies to this Public Notice. Those who do not confirm within 30 days from the date of this Public Notice may be removed from our distribution lists.
