The Corps of Engineers updated and re-issued the Nationwide Permit Program on Friday, December 13, 1996.
The entire Federal Register document is available in Portable Document File (pdf) format which will require Adobe Acrobat Reader 3.0 available from Adobe Systems Inc.
We also have a shortened version which consists of the Summary and subsections A, B, and C which contains the final Nationwide Permits and Conditions. This is reformated to be more easily read. Use this if you are not interested in the reasons why certain decisions were made i.e. you are only concerned with what is required.
