Marin Coastal Permit Coordination Program

Why do we need a program? Called for in Watershed Plans: As many as 9 permits to consider for restoration. Can cost at least $2,374 in hard cash and countless hours of learning the system. Can take years before permits are received =increased project cost + staff changes. Landowners risk fines. Creek work is avoided.

U. S. Army Corps of Engineers 404 Permit Regional Water Quality Control Board 401 Certification California Department of Fish and Game Streambed Alteration Agreement U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service Section 7 Consultation Marin County Community Development California Coastal Commission Coastal Zone Review NRCS / RCD Conservation Plan How the program was set up.

Find Federal and State agency partnership. Develop list of practices from USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service Field Office Tech Guide. Develop conditions for practices. Hold tour with regulatory agencies. Get CEQA coverage. Hold public meeting.

How the program works NovemberLandowner applies for funding and opts for coverage. December-JanuaryProject is evaluated and ranked (NRCS technician/RCD Advisory Group). FebruaryProject is approved by RCD Board for design services. MarchProject is approved by RCD Board into permit program.

How the program works April30 day public comment period closes. July60 day agency comment period closes. Agencies visit sites. Permits received! AugustRCD Board approves contractor bid. October 15 th Project is complete! JanuaryStatus report is provided to agencies.

Discoveries Staff must be available to set up and learn the program. Can’t use a template. Not all agencies think alike and sometimes folks within a single agency may not think alike. Planning is key. Adaptive management is necessary. Prepare for publicity.

Benefits More conservation work is completed! Project designs are refined and improved. Projects are completed WITH permits. Implementation schedule is reduced from 3 years to 1. Landowners avoid permit fees and agony of making beaurocratic sausage. Expands our funding opportunities.
