Dear Mr. Heifner:
RECL MATIpN p ~ ~I`~N
Reference is made to your letter dated January 5, 1990,
regarding Castle Concrete's proposed filling in of an existing
pond and construction of a sediment control basin on a tributary
of Black Canyon which is known locally as Snyder Fork of the
Black Canyon. The project site is located about one mile north
of Manitou Springs, E1 Paso County, Colorado, in the center of
532, T13S, R67W.
Regulations pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act
(33 CFR 330.5(a)(26)) describe a nationwide permit for discharges
of dredged or fill materials into certain waters that are located
in closed basins or above the headwaters of waters of the United
States. A summary of the provisions of this permit and a
brochure about our regulatory program are enclosed for your
information.
The described project site is located above the headwaters.
The project can be constructed provided it does not result in the
loss or substantial adverse modification of more than one acre of
waters of the United States, including wetlands. Acreage must be
figured as a total for all dredged and fill activities in waters
of the U.S. within the Snyder Quarry. It appears that a total of
about 0.3 acre of waters would be affected by the project. The
officer responsible for the project must insure compliance with
all conditions of the permit.
For discharges which cause the loss or substantial adverse
modification of one to ten acres of such waters, including
wetlands, notification is required in accordance with the
procedures listed in the summary. Discharges resulting in the
loss or substantial adverse modification of more than ten acres
of these waters will require an individual Section 404 p,=_rmit.
You are advised that this verification of the natiomaide
permit authorization is valid for two years. The natiomaide
permit will be in effect until November 13, 1991, unless it is
sooner reissued, modified, or rescinded.
