EPA/WATER RIN: 2040-AE96 Publication ID: Fall 2008 
Title: Revisions to the Clean Water Act Regulatory Definition of "Discharge of Dredged Material" 
Abstract: This rulemaking responds to the court order issued in the NAHB v. U.S. Army Corps of Engineers case, which struck down the "Tulloch II" rule promulgated under section 404 of the CWA. This case resulted in the reinstatement of regulations applicable immediately prior to promulgation of the Tulloch II Rule (promulgated in 1999). This final rule is intended to amend the regulations at 33 CFR 323.3 and 40 CFR 232.2 to conform with the current legal state of the regulations governing discharges of dredged material.
