It may be prudent to obtain a preliminary wetlands map from a qualified consultant. If waters of the United States are confirmed <br />on the project site, the Corps and the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) would have regulatory authority over those <br />mapped areas [pursuant to Section 404 and 401 of the Clean Water Act respectively] and permits would be required from each of these <br />resource agencies prior to grading the project site. <br />If you have any questions, please call (209) 235-0600. <br />Planning Commission Staff Report 16 <br />PA -1900240 (SA), PA -2000014 (ER), PA -2000019 (DA) <br />Response Letters <br />
