    On June 10, 2010, the US Army Corps of Engineers, Little Rock, Memphis, and Vicksburg Districts issued a regional general permit, which would authorize the construction of exploration and production wells for oil and gas and their supporting fills and structures in waters of the United States. As lead Corps District in the state, Little Rock District is responsible for coordinating advertisement and review of comments on this statewide regional general permit. The authority for permit issuance is found in Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 (33 U.S. Code 403) and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S. Code 1344). Corps districts are authorized to develop regional general permits in accordance with Title 33, Code of Federal Regulations Parts 325.2(e)(2) and 325.5(c)(1). This regional general permit has proven to be successful in authorizing a minor, noncontroversial category of work that has had no significant individual or cumulative adverse environmental impacts, and we propose to reissue the regional general permit for an additional five (5) years. Seventy-six (76) projects have been approved under this regional general permit since June 10, 2010.
