Alabama river/ lake Dannelly
6 months ago I called the alabama corps of engineers to inquire about the necessary permits. They seemed surprised - told me there really wasn't a pre inspection or a post inspection or a fee! There was a form that I would need to get to them but no biggee. Soooo I conveniately forgot about the permit. Got the dock all planned out and marked with string and Decided to give them one more call and wish I hadn't. AL corps of engineers faxed me a form that applied to nothing I was doing. Most of which involved dredging regs. Fill disposal and coastal concerns. I filled out all blanks as N/A Wrote a brief description of what I was doing along with a couple of sketches and faxed them back. Got a call from a "ranger?" that says he will need to ride out and take a look at the site and if he can get it inspected and there are no historic,environmental or game and fish issues he may be able to get me a permit in a couple of weeks! FYI this is a 16'x24' deck that connects to the bank. Wondering if others in the area have had any issues with approvals?
