Are you prepared for additional requirements that can be triggered during the Section 404 Permit process?The regulation of wetlands and waterbodies through Section 404 of the Clean Water Act has been in constant flux over the last decade, with a myriad of court cases, rulemakings, and guidance.
How do you tell if it is a wetland, what regulation will survive attack in the courts, and what is the effect on global climate change on all of this? A leading wetlands lawyer and wetland scientist work together provide their guidance on the state of play in wetlands. This topic is intended to better prepare you for the basic Section 404 regulatory review process administered by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and to guide you through some potential key issues that can occur during that process. At the completion of this content, you will be able to better predict major obstacles and potentially costly issues associated with Section 404 of the Clean Water Act.
