and entities may submit comments to the responsible Corps official.

    (d) If a program or activity is not selected for a state process, 

state, areawide, regional and local officials and entities may submit

process recommendation for a nonselected program or activity is 

transmitted to the responsible Corps official by the single point of 

contact, such official follows the procedures of Sec.  384.10 of this 

part.

    (e) The responsible Corps official considers comments which do not 

constitute a state process recommendation submitted under these 

regulations and for which such official is not required to apply the 

procedures of Sec.  384.10 of this part, when such comments are provided 

by a single point of contact or directly to such official by a 

commenting party.
