There are two types of Individual Permits in the Savannah District: Letter of Permission and Standard Permit.

Letters of Permission (LOPs) are an abbreviated process used to authorize minor projects with no significant environmental impacts, and should encounter no substantive opposition. Examples of projects authorized under an LOP are a small community dock or a large private single family dock. LOPs typically take 60 days to process from the time a complete application is received by the US Army Corps of Engineers.

Standard Permits (SPs) are issued for projects that could have more than a minimal impact on the environment. An example of a project authorized under this permit is a large commercial development. Simple SPs typically take 120 days to process from the time a complete application is received by Corps.  For further information on Corps Permits and exemptions, please visit any of the 'Related Pages' on the right side of the screen.  Information on how to apply for Individual Permits or related requests can be found on our 'E-Submittal Applications Page'.
