Dear Mr. Meyer:
Thank you for your letters of December 13, 1984, and February 11, 1985,
concerning your proposal to reclaim a portion of the lO0-year floodplain to the
west of the Elm Fork of the Trinity River just downstream from the Carrollton
Dam in Dallas County, Texas.
Your 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 into waters of the United States including adjacent
wetlands. Based on your description of the proposed work and all information
available to us, we have determined that your project will involve such
discharges and will require prior Department of the Army authorization.
A general permit applicable to your project has been issued on a nationwide
bas~s for discharges into waters of the United States. This nationwide permit
authorizes the discharge of dredged or fill material for bank stabilization work
provided the activity is less than 500 feet in length and involves the discharge
of less than one cubic yard of material per running foot 'of shoreline.
The only requirement in the use of this permit is that the person
responsible for the project must ensure that the work is in compliance with all
specifications, co~dit[ons, and best management practices listed on the
enclosure. Failure to satisfy these conditions invalidates the authorization
and may result in a violation of the Clean Water Act.
Thank you for your interest in our nation's water resources. If you have
any additional questions concerning our regulatory program, you may contact our
Permits Section at the address above, telephone (817) 334-2681.
