WETLAND DETERMINATION AND COMPLIANCE INFORMATION<br />
The <strong>Natural</strong> <strong>Resources</strong> <strong>Conservation</strong>s <strong>Service</strong> (NRCS) wetland determination process assists<br />
landowners in attaining and remaining in compliance with the United States Department of Agriculture<br />
(USDA) policies and regulations as related to the 1985 Food Security Act. In most cases, this will<br />
provide landowners the ability to be eligible and participate in USDA Farm Bill programs.<br />
Although NRCS wetland determinations satisfy compliance requirements for all USDA Farm Bill<br />
programs, other federal and state agencies, especially the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE), may<br />
have requirements of which you should be aware. The NRCS does not provide evaluations of<br />
landowner specific responsibilities for obtaining permits or clearances to disturb or manipulate<br />
wetlands. It is the landowner’s responsibility to contact the appropriate agencies which may have<br />
further regulatory responsibilities over such disturbances or manipulations.<br />
Your wetland determination is not made available outside the USDA without your permission.<br />
However, with your permission, the NRCS can assist you by transmitting your wetland<br />
determination to the COE to aid in requesting any permit application that you make to the COE.<br />
Should you choose to provide your determination to the COE yourself, you may contact them through<br />
one of the methods/locations listed on the back of this authorization sheet. The COE will assist you in<br />
the filing and processing of applications and permits related to your project, ensuring compliance with<br />
the Clean Water Act rules and regulations. The COE wants you to complete your projects in a safe,<br />
legal, efficient, and timely manner.<br />
By my signature on this line, I authorize the NRCS to share my wetland data, preliminary wetland<br />
determination, or certified wetland determination with the Kansas Regulatory Office of the U.S. Army<br />
Corps of Engineers for the purpose of compliance with appropriate laws.<br />
