The project is not regulated under <br />the provisions of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and a <br />Department of the Army permit will not be required. This <br />determination was made because it does not appear that the <br />proposed mining will be conducted in waters of the United States. <br />If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at <br />(719) 543-8102 or e-mail me at diana.l.humphreys@usace.army.mil. <br />For more information about the regulatory program, please see our <br />web site at www.spa.usace.army.mil/reg. <br />Si cerely, <br />Diana L.
