Army Corps regulatory program

The Army Corps of Engineers' regulatory program manages activities that may impact U.S. waters, wetlands, and adjacent areas to protect environmental health and resources. They evaluate permits for construction, development, or dredging projects to ensure these activities do not harm water quality, ecosystems, or flood control. The program involves reviewing project plans, consulting with stakeholders, and issuing approvals or denials based on environmental, economic, and legal considerations. It aims to balance development needs with environmental protection, ensuring that water resources are preserved for future use.
