NAME OF APPLICANT:  Tangipahoa Parish Government c/o Hydrik Wetlands Consultants at 2323 Highway 190 East, Suite 2, Hammond, Louisiana  70401.

LOCATION OF WORK:  Adjacent to the Natalbany River, at 57510 Hano Road, Independence, in Tangipahoa Parish, Louisiana, as shown on the attached drawings.

HUC:  08070203; Tickfaw River

          The work described below was completed prior to obtaining a Department of the Army permit and was in violation of Section 301 of the Clean Water Act.  All legal issues concerning the unauthorized work have been deferred.

CHARACTER OF WORK:  To clear, excavate and install and maintain fill in order to construct additional waste disposal cells with appurtenances at the existing Tangipahoa Parish Landfill.  The cell creation will serve the disposal of garbage waste and is expected to last approximately 100 years.  Part of this project was authorized under Nationwide Permit #14 N966085 on 20 August 1996, and additional unauthorized work has since been completed.  Project execution will require permanent impacts to 27.65 acres of bottomland hardwoods and 163.52 acres of other waters of the United States.  The applicant proposes to purchase credits from a mitigation bank to offset any unavoidable losses to wetland functions caused by project implementation.

          The applicant may be required to fully or partially restore the project site to pre-project conditions, if issuance of a permit is determined not to be in the overall public interest.
