• Secured 200+ U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Section 404 Permits, including Nationwide Permits, Individual Permits, Regional General Permits, and Letters of Permission.
  
• Identified countless Nationwide Permit authorizations (“qualifications”) that did not require submittal of a permit application package to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
  
• Worked to help design countless projects so that jurisdictional features were avoided and/or non-regulated activities were incorporated, resulting in no requirement for U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Section 404 authorization / compensatory mitigation.
  
• Assisted Countless Private Developers and 20+ municipalities in obtaining U.S. Army Corps of Engineers authorization.
  
• Routinely work with other agencies whose support is sometimes integral to U.S. Army Corps of Engineers approval.
