Sec.  337.3  Transfer of the section 404 program to the states.



    Section 404(g-1) of the CWA allows the Administrator of the EPA to 

transfer to qualified states administration of the section 404 permit 

program for discharges into certain waters of the U.S. Once a state's 

404 program is approved, the district engineer will follow state 

procedures developed in accordance with section 404(g-1) of the CWA for 

all on-going Corps projects involving the discharge of fill material in 

transferred waters to the state agency responsible for administering the 

program. Corps projects involving the discharge of dredged or fill 

material in waters not transferred to the state will be processed in 

accordance with this regulation.
