The Sacramento District holds the Regulatory Program Workshop in Sacramento quarterly to provide the public with information about Corps’ permit requirements and updates on program execution in the Sacramento District.  The workshop is open to interested parties including the regulated public, consultants, environmental organizations, and Federal, state and local agencies.  Similar workshops are held less frequently in other locations in the Sacramento District’s area of responsibility, including Bountiful, Utah and Grand Junction, Colorado.
