NWO-2012-00011-RWY - 11/30/2012: The Wyoming Regulatory Office (WRO), is interested in establishing a tool to help quantify appropriate compensatory stream mitigation when it is determined to be necessary as part of a Section 404 permit action. The proposed Wyoming Stream Mitigation Procedure (WSMP) is a method for quantifying the adverse impacts (debits) and the acceptable compensatory mitigation (credits) in relation to a project that would result in more than minimal adverse impacts to a stream. Comments are sought to help assess the technical soundness and suitability of the proposed WSMP.
Expiration date: 1/4/2013
NWO-2012-00142-WRO - 10/12/2012: The pits will be mined one at a time with each taking approximately 2 years to complete. The gravel will be mined by dredging. The mined materials will be transported by belt conveyors to a screen and wash plant located west of the pits. The material will go through a series of screening and washing to sort the sand from the gravel. The sorted material will be stockpiled and hauled offsite for further processing. The mining process will result in the redistribution of an estimated 347,275 cubic yards of gravel resulting in the loss of approximately 20.7 acres of wetland. The mined pits will be reclaimed into ponds to provide wildlife habitat and restore a portion of the wetlands loss.
Expiration date: 11/15/2012
