Dear Mr. Denton:
On March 4, 2025, the New York District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
(Corps), received a request for Department of the Army authorization for Permit
Application for the Liberty at Saratoga Project in the City of Saratoga Springs, Saratoga
County, New York.
Our review indicates that since the proposed work as shown on the drawing
labeled "Wetland Impact Figure" by Labella, dated December 13, 2024, does not appear
to include dredging or construction activities in or over any navigable waters of the
United States, the placement of any dredged or fill material in any waters of the United
States (including coastal or inland wetlands) or the accomplishment of any work
affecting the course, location, condition or capacity of such areas. A Department of the
Army permit, in accordance with 33 CFR 320-330, will not be required provided the
proposed work is executed in accordance with the referenced material.
Care should be taken so that any fill or construction materials, including debris,
do not enter the waterway to become a drift or pollution hazard. A No Permit Required
(NPR) determination by the Corps:
•Does not obviate the requirement to obtain any other Federal, State, or local
permits which may be necessary for your project;
•Does not constitute a federal evaluation of possible impacts to species protected
under the Endangered Species Act. Projects that have the potential to impact
federally listed species should contact the (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service/NOAA
Fisheries Service); and,
•Does not constitute a federal evaluation of possible impacts to historic resources
protected under Section 106 of the Natural Historic Preservation Act. Projects
that have the potential to impact historic sites should contact the State Historic
Preservation Officer in (New York/New Jersey).

This NPR determination neither addresses nor includes any consideration for
geographic jurisdiction on aquatic resources and shall not be interpreted as
such.
