. 9 Forms and Permits The following forms apply to the permit process: Application The form that you will need to initiate the review process is ENG Form 4345 or a joint Federal-state application that may be avail- able in your state. The appropriate form may be obtained from the district regulatory office which has jurisdiction in the area where your proposed project is located. Individual Permits An individual permit may be issued as either ENG Form 1721, the standard permit, or as a Letter of Permission. o A standard permit is one processed through the typical review procedures, (see page 7) which include public notice, opportunity for a public hearing, and receipt of comments. It is issued follow- ing a case-by-case evaluation of a specific activity. o If work is minor or routine with minimum impacts and objections are unlikely, then it may qualify for a Letter of Permission (LOP). An LOP can be issued much more quickly than a standard permit since an individual public notice is not required. The District Engineer will notify you if your proposed activity qualifies for an LOP. General Permits In many cases the formal processing of a permit application is not required because of general permits already issued to the public at large by the Corps of Engineers. These are issued on a regional and nationwide basis. Separate applications may not be required for activities authorized by a general permit; nevertheless, reporting may be required. For specific information on general permits, con- tact a district regulatory office. ENG Form 4336 The third form, ENG Form 4336, is used to assist with surveillance for unauthorized activities. The form, which contains a description of authorized work, should be posted at the site of an authorized activity. If the Corps decides it is appropriate for you to post this form, it will be furnished to you when you receive your permit. Fees. Fees are required for most permits. $10.00 will be charged for a permit for a non-commercial activity; $100.00 will be charged for a permit for a commercial or industrial activity. The district engineer will make the final decision as to the amount of the fee. Do not send a fee when you submit an application. When the Corps issues a permit, you will be notified and asked to submit the required fee payable to the Treasurer of the United States. No fees are charged for transferring a permit from one properly owner to another, for Letters of Permission, or for any activities authorized by a general permit or for permits to govern- mental agencies.
