This finding is supported by General Condition 18, which requires project-specific ESA Section 7 consultation for any activity that 'might affect' listed species; no such activity is authorized until the consultation process is successfully completed. \n\nCompliance with the National Historic Preservation Act is similarly managed through General Condition 20, which triggers mandatory Pre-Construction Notification (PCN) if an activity has the potential to affect historic properties.

This permit covers specific items such as ski jumps, marking buoys for competitions, and structures used during seasonal events like boat races or fishing tournaments. \n\nThe scope is strictly limited to structures that are temporary in nature. These structures must be removed within 30 days of use, and the site must be restored to its original condition. This permit operates under Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 and does not authorize any discharge of dredged or fill material into waters of the United States. ","The Corps received no specific public comments regarding the proposed reissuance of NWP 11 following the June 2025 Federal Register notice. As a result, the permit was reissued as written in the proposal. \n\nIn broader feedback on the NWP reissuance process, commenters expressed general support for maintained administrative efficiency. The Corps responded by emphasizing that district engineers retain the authority to exercise discretionary review and require individual permits if they determine a specific recreational project would result in more than minimal individual or cumulative adverse effects. ","This permit is typically used by event organizers, non-profit recreational clubs, and seasonal facility operators. It is essential for entities that need to temporarily place structures like buoys, markers, or floating platforms in navigable waters for tournaments, seasonal camps, or water sports competitions.
