What We Do

Stream Permitting

Any person, agency, contractor, or firm that is proposing a project that may alter or modify the beds or banks of a perennial stream, river, or spring, must first obtain a 310 permit. If you are planning to work in or near a stream, you must get a 310 permit first. It’s Free. It’s the Law.
