The 30-day Master Plan (MP) and Programmatic Environmental Assessment (PEA) Review Periods are now open!

Provide Feedback in the 30-day MP and PEA Review Period

The Public will have the opportunity to review both the draft Master Plan and Programmatic Environmental Assessment (PEA) report and provide feedback during the 30-day review period on the project website. This review period will take place from October 4 until November 4, 2021. To submit comments for both documents, please contact directly PHILPOTT@usace.army.mil

The following were various ways the public was able to play a role during the Philpott Lake Master Plan Update planning process.

Virtual Public Meetings

The first Virtual Scoping Meetings were to inform the general public and agencies of the master plan process and to gather information about their perspective of management needs and operations. Two sessions were held on Thursday, December 3, 2020. 

The second Virtual Public Meeting was held on September 28, 2021. The project team facilitated a forum for the discussion of project related interests.

To view the presentations or listen to the recordings, visit the Virtual Meeting Recap section on this webpage.

Once preliminary drafts of the Master Plan (MP) and Programmatic Environmental Assessment (PEA) have been reviewed by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and comments have been incorporated to the satisfaction of the USACE, this Virtual Public Meeting will facilitate a forum for the discussion of project related concerns. Please check back to the project webpage or follow us on Facebook to stay up to date on the latest news.
