SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER 2003

Overview

Builders, contractors, developers, consultants, architects, citizens, lake associations, and government officials. . .

Construction activities impacting wetlands, floodplains, inland lakes and streams, Great Lakes bottom lands, marinas, dams, critical dunes, and high risk erosion areas . . . What do all of these activities have in common? - PERMITS!

The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) present this workshop that rolls two training sessions into one:

- Land/Water Interface Joint Permit Application

- Michigan's Storm Water Construction Program

Too many times permit applications cannot be issued because they are incomplete. At this workshop, regulatory experts will tell you how to complete these important permit applications. Learn how to prepare your permit application correctly the first time around, thereby saving YOU time and money! You will receive inside tips on what factors MDEQ uses in determining permit completeness, thus increasing your potential for timely approval.

Anyone that prepares these applications should attend this informative workshop, as well as city, township, county, and state officials and environmental associations that provide guidance on this process.
