  • SWL 2003-18941

    On March 1, 2007, the five U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) Districts in the State of Missouri adopted the Missouri Stream Mitigation Method (MSMM). The Corps has now modified the MSMM after conducting a comprehensive review to address conformance with the 2008 Compensatory Mitigation Rule (see 33 CFR part 332), inconsistencies in the document, and other issues identified during the first three years of use. The MSMM is used by regulatory agency personnel and the public to quantify stream impacts and mitigation credits associated with permit applications under Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 (33 USC 403) and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1344).
