B.3.5 Wetland Management

Fort Carson’s and the Army’s goal is to have no net loss of wetlands.  To achieve this goal the DECAM is managing and monitoring the Fort Carson and Piñon Canyon Maneuver Site wetlands.  The DECAM will work closely with the DPW to minimize impacts to wetlands and to serve as a liaison to the COE when having to mitigate wetland loss. 

• Whenever possible, avoid impacting wetlands.

• If unavoidable, coordinate closely with the DECAM wetland staff

• The DECAM will work with DPW staff in preparing the appropriate documents required by the Corps of Engineers. State authorization and permitting applies.  POC is Jeff Linn, (719) 526-3975. 

• For more information contact the Resource Compliance Branch at (719) 526-1693.
