The MDEQ/USACE Joint Permit Application Training Manual has been designed by the Water Resources Division (WRD), Permit Consolidation Unit (PCU) to guide citizens, developers, contractors, consultants, city and township planners, engineers, and architects in properly completing the MDEQ/USACE Joint Permit Application (JPA). The application is used to apply for construction, excavation, dredging, and/or fill activities in, on, or near lakes, streams, floodplains, designated critical dunes, designated high risk erosion areas, and/or wetlands. This manual combines guidance material and instructions together into one practical and easy-to-use reference document.
The MDEQ and the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) share the JPA form to ensure efficient permit processing in areas where both agencies have jurisdiction.
The manual takes the user step-by-step through the JPA form and provide useful tips for presenting the requested information. The manual also includes an overview of the WRD regulatory authority for issuing the permits, provides information on special reviews, discusses fees and appropriate documentation, covers the permit tracking system and provides diagrams and other pertinent information to help the user put together a complete application.
