NOTICE OF COMMENT PERIOD EXTENSION:  On February 19, 2020, the United States Army Corps of Engineers published a public notice titled “LRH – OH SWVM-2020 THE OHIO STREAM AND WETLAND VALUATION METRIC FOR APPLICATION WITHIN THE STATE OF OHIO.” The purpose of the public notice was to solicit comments from the interested parties in order to consider and evaluate the use of the Ohio Stream and Wetland Valuation Metric (SWVM).  Any comments received will be considered by the Corps to determine whether to modify, adopt, or terminate the use of the Ohio SWVM. Comments, both favorable and unfavorable, will be accepted, made a part of the record, and receive full consideration in subsequent actions on these procedures.
