Abbreviated Notice of Intent

The Abbreviated Notice of Intent simplifies filing requirements for projects which are likely to result in limited impacts to wetland resource areas. The form may be used when:

• the proposed work is within the Buffer Zone as defined in 310 CMR 10.04 (if the filing of a Notice of Intent is required) or within Land Subject to Flooding, as defined in 310 CMR 10.57(2), or within the Riverfront Area, as defined in 310 CMR 10.58; and
• the proposed work will disturb less than 1,000 square feet of surface area within the Buffer Zone and/or Land Subject to Flooding or less than 1,000 square feet of Riverfront Area, provided the work conforms to the requirements of 310 CMR 10.58(4)(c)2.a. pertaining to analysis of alternatives; and
• neither a Department of Army permit nor a Chapter 91 Waterways license from the Department is required.
