Corps of Engineers permit (if applicable) and private aid project
information, to the Seventh CG District, Private Aids Section. A 30 day
advance notice required for all projects.

waterway analysis, to ensure compliance with applicable federal private aid
requirements, uniform aid marking and to ensure waterway safety as a result
of the proposed private aid(s) project.
