Under the Corps' Regulatory Program, a public notice is the primary method for advising all interested parties of a proposed activity for which a permit is sought. Public notices are also published to inform the public about new or proposed regulations, policies, guidance or permit procedures.
We are requesting public comments on many Public Notices (PNs) concurrently; please pay careful attention to the file number and the comments Due Date.
Email comments are preferred. To submit comments in writing, send them to the attention of the Project Manager listed in the Public Notice title block. All comments should reference the PN file number and be submitted by the Response Required Date on the PN.
The Public Notices are in pdf format. To read the files you may need to download and install Adobe Acrobat Reader or another comparable program

This Special Public Notice announces the preliminary intent of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ San Francisco District, Regulatory Division, to accept funds contributed by the California Department of Transportation ("Caltrans") in order to expedite processing of Caltrans’ Department of the Army (DA) permit applications.
Section 214 of the Water Resources Development Act of 2000 (WRDA 2000, Public Law No. 106-541 111-120), as amended by Public Law 111-315, authorizes the Secretary of the Army, after public notice, to accept and expend funds contributed by a non-Federal public entity to expedite the evaluation of a permit of that entity related to a project or activity for a public purpose under the jurisdiction of the Department of the Army. The Secretary of the Army has delegated this responsibility to the Chief of Engineers and his authorized representatives, including the Commander of the San Francisco District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The authority provided under section 214 of the WRDA 2000 is presently in effect until December 31, 2016.
Currently, San Francisco District accepts funds from Caltrans in accordance with an existing Memorandum of Agreement (MOA), which is set to expire September 30, 2014. A new MOA, effective October 1, 2014, thru September 30, 2019, would allow the Corps to continue to accept and expend these funds. However, the Corps will neither accept nor expend funds provided by Caltrans after December 31, 2016, unless Federal law extends the Corps’ authority under section 214 of WRDA 2000, as amended.
