2015-00961-LSP (Polk County, MN) Polk County Landfill Expansion Project
PUBLIC NOTICE: APPLICATION FOR PERMIT TO discharge fill into 5.59 acres of wetlands adjacent to the Gentilly River for the purpose of expanding a landfill. Polk County owns a 360-acre parcel northeast of the city of Crookston, a portion of which has been permitted for use as a landfill since 1974. The landfill is part of a seven-county integrated solid waste management system and currently accepts waste material from the following counties: Polk, Beltrami, Clearwater, Hubbard, Mahnomen, Norman and Becker. The Corps of Engineers issued a public notice for a previous proposal to expand the landfill into approximately 19.16 acres of wetlands in December of 2018. Subsequent discussion with the applicant resulted in a revised plan that would involve a discharge of fill material into approximately 5.59 acres.

About Our Regulatory & Permits Office

The purpose of Corps of Engineers' regulatory program is to protect the nation's aquatic resources, while allowing reasonable development through fair, flexible and balanced permit decisions. The Corps evaluates permit applications for all regulated activities that occur in the nation's waters, including wetlands.

The Corps' regulatory program includes Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. The St. Paul District's regulatory jurisdiction covers the states of Minnesota and Wisconsin.

Under Section 10, a Corps permit is required to do any work in, over or under a 'Navigable Water of the U.S.' Waterbodies have been designated as 'Navigable Waters of the U.S.' based on their past, present or potential use for transportation for interstate commerce.

Under Section 404, a Corps permit is required for the discharge of dredged or fill material into waters of the U.S. Many waterbodies and wetlands in the nation are waters of the U.S. and are subject to the Corps' Section 404 regulatory authority.
