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 the mining site contains two <br />isolated, and therefore nonjurisdictional, streams. No permits <br />will be needed to work in the isolated streams. <br />If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at <br />(719) 543-6914 or e-mail me at anita.e,culp@usace.army.mil. For <br />more information about the regulatory program, please see our web <br />site at www.spa.usace.army.mil/reg. <br />Sincerely, <br />v-~~'~~~ --- <br />Anita E.
