Requests for Use of Government Property at Wilmington District Dam and Lake Projects

As stewards of the public land and water at the Civil Works Multipurpose Dam and Lake Projects in the Wilmington District, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) must carefully consider the implications and impacts of any request to use these resources.  Adverse impacts to the environment and the Congressionally authorized purposes of these projects must be avoided.   Items considered include:

• preserving flood storage capacity

• maintaining a steadily improving natural resource base

• protecting water quality

• producing hydropower

• supplying drinking water

• maintaining navigation

• providing sustainable, high quality, diverse, natural resource based outdoor recreation opportunities to the public

 

Potential applicants should review the Non-Recreation Outgrant Applicant Information including the SF299 application form or the Recreation Outgrant Applicant Information, depending on the nature of the proposal.  These documents are available at links provided below.  Requests to alter USACE Civil Works Projects are reviewed pursuant to 33 USC 408 (Section 408) to determine if the proposed alterations would be injurious to the public interest or impair the usefulness of the USACE Project. The review of a land use request, conducted in compliance with the USACE Outgrant Policies, may satisfy the requirements of Section 408.  Applicants will be notified if a separate Section 408 evaluation process is required.  Potential applicants should consult with USACE project staff prior to submitting a request, see contact information below.
