Dear Mr. Berg:
Reference is made to the above -mentioned prcject located at 40.60205; - 105.07020, Lari rner
County, Colorado. The two ditches on -site were determined to be non -jurisdictional.
This project has been reviewed in accordance with Section 404 of the Clean Water Act under
which the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers regulates the discharge of dredged and fill material', and any
excavation activity associated with a dredge and fill project in waters of the United States, The two oil
site drainage channels are not waters of the U.S.
Reference is made to the November 13, 1986 Federal Register (Page 41217), Part 328, ("th o
Lidal drainage and irrigation ditches excavated on"Alry land. The Corps of Engineers generally does not
consider these types of aquatic resources waters of the U.S,. except oil a case -by -case basis. The two on -
site drainage channels fall under the description referenced above.
Based on the information provided, a Department of the Army (DMA) Permit will not be required
for the work in the two on site drainage channels. Although a DA Permit will not be required for this
project, this does not eliminate the requirement that other applicable federal, state, and local permits be
obtained as needed.
If there are any questions call Mr. Terry McKee of my office at (303) 979-4120 and reference
Corps File No. NWO-2013-279-DEN.
Sincerely,
