If you know that your proposal will require an individual Permit from the U.S.Army Corps of Engineers,you must provide the
names and addresses of all property owners adjacent to the project site. This information may be provided by attaching a list to
your application or by using block 25 of the Application for Department of the Army permit which can be obtained at:

PART THREE: General Project/Site Information
If this application is related to a delineation approval,exemption determination,jurisdictional determination,or other
correspondence submitted prior to this application then describe that here and provide the Corps of Engineers project number.
Describe the project that is being proposed,the project purpose and need,and schedule for implementation and completion.The
project description must fully describe the nature and scope of the proposed activity including a description of all project elements
that effect aquatic resources(wetland,lake,tributary,etc.)and must also include plans and cross section or profile drawings
showing the location,character,and dimensions of all proposed activities and aquatic resource impacts.
The owner wants to know where the approved edge is located before starting the planning process.As soon as approval is
received they will move forward with their project.
PART FOUR: Aquatic Resource Impact' Summary
If your proposed project involves a direct or indirect impact to an aquatic resource (wetland, lake, tributary, etc.) identify each
impact in the table below. Include all anticipated impacts, including those expected to be temporary. Attach an overhead view
map, aerial photo, and/or drawing showing all of the aquatic resources in the project area and the location(s) of the proposed
impacts. Label each aquatic resource on the map with a reference number or letter and identify the impacts in the following table.
Aquatic Type of Impact Duration of Existing Plant County,Major
Aquatic Resource Overall Size of Watershed#,
Resource Type (fill,excavate, Impact z Community
ID(as noted on Size of Impact Aquatic and Bank Service

'If impacts are temporary;enter the duration of the impacts in days next to the"T". For example,a project with a temporary access fill that would be removed
after 220 days would be entered"T(220)".
2Impacts less than 0.01 acre should be reported in square feet. Impacts 0.01 acre or greater should be reported as acres and rounded to the nearest 0.01 acre.
Tributary impacts must be reported in linear feet of impact and an area of impact by indicating first the linear feet of impact along the flowline of the stream
followed by the area impact in parentheses). For example,a project that impacts 50 feet of a stream that is 6 feet wide would be reported as 50 ft(300 sq/ft).
'This is generally only applicable if you are applying for a de minimis exemption under MN Rules 8420.0420 Subp.8,otherwise enter"N/A".
4Use Wetland Plants and Plant Community Types of Minnesota and Wisconsin 3rd Ed.as modified in MN Rules 8420.0405 Subp.2.

If any of the above identified impacts have already occurred,identify which impacts they are and the circumstances associated
with each:

Attachment A
Request for Delineation Review, Wetland Type Determination, or
Jurisdictional Determination
By submission of the enclosed wetland delineation report, I am requesting that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers,St. Paul District
(Corps)and/or the Wetland Conservation Act Local Government Unit(LGU) provide me with the following(check all that apply):
Wetland Type Confirmation
ZDelineation Concurrence. Concurrence with a delineation is a written notification from the Corps and a decision from the LGU
concurring, not concurring,or commenting on the boundaries of the aquatic resources delineated on the property. Delineation
concurrences are generally valid for five years unless site conditions change. Under this request alone,the Corps will not address
the jurisdictional status of the aquatic resources on the property,only the boundaries of the resources within the review area
(including wetlands,tributaries, lakes,etc.).
❑ Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination.A preliminary jurisdictional determination (PJD)is a non-binding written indication
from the Corps that waters, including wetlands,identified on a parcel may be waters of the United States. For purposes of
computation of impacts and compensatory mitigation requirements, a permit decision made on the basis of a PJD will treat all
waters and wetlands in the review area as if they are jurisdictional waters of the U.S. PJDs are advisory in nature and may not be
appealed.
❑Approved Jurisdictional Determination.An approved jurisdictional determination (AJD)is an official Corps determination that
jurisdictional waters of the United States are either present or absent on the property.AJDs can generally be relied upon by the
affected party for five years.An AJD may be appealed through the Corps administrative appeal process.
In order for the Corps and LGU to process your request,the wetland delineation must be prepared in accordance with the 1987
Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual,any approved Regional Supplements to the 1987 Manual, and the Guidelines for
Submitting Wetland Delineations in Minnesota(2013).
