ERDC/CRREL TR 14-13: A Guide to Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM) Delineation for Non-Perennial Streams in the Western Mountains, Valleys, and Coast Region of the United States DOD-COE-00483 This document provides technical guidance for delineating the ordinary high water mark (OHWM) in non-perennial streams in the Western Mountains, Valleys, and Coast (WMVC) Region of the United States. Under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, the OHWM defines the lateral extent of federal jurisdiction in non-tidal waters of the U.S. in the absence of adjacent wetlands. The OHWM in the WMVC Region is consistent with the physical and biological signature established and maintained at the boundaries of the active channel. Delineation of the active channel signature, and thus the OHWM, is based largely on identification of three primary physical or biological indicators—topographic break in slope, change in sediment characteristics, and change in vegetation characteristics. This guide addresses the underlying hydrologic and geomorphic concepts pertaining to the OHWM and the field indicators, methods, and additional lines of evidence used to assess and delineate the OHWM in WMVC non-perennial streams. The technical guidance presented here increases the accuracy and consistency of OHWM delineation practices in the WMVC Region.

New England District Regional Implementation Manual for the Evaluation of Dredged Material Proposed for Disposal in New England Waters DOD-COE-01117 This Regional Implementation Manual for the Evaluation of Dredged Material Proposed for Disposal in New England Waters, or RIM, was prepared by EPA Region 1, New England in cooperation with the New England District (CENAE) of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) to provide guidance for applicants proposing open-water disposal of dredged material in New England waters. Under the authorities of Section 103 of the Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act (for disposal seaward of the baseline of the territorial sea) and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (for disposal inland and in near coastal waters landward of the baseline), the Corps and EPA have issued national guidance and testing requirements to evaluate dredged material for open water disposal. These national guidance manuals are called the "Green Book" ("Evaluation of Dredged Material Proposed for Ocean Disposal Testing Manual", EPA/USACE, 1991), and the “Inland Testing Manual” (“Evaluation of Dredged Material Proposed for Discharge in Waters of the U.S. – Testing Manual”, EPA/USACE, 1998). The RIM applies the national guidance to the New England area and supersedes the previous regional manual entitled "Guidance for Performing Tests on Dredged Material to be Disposed of in Open Waters" (EPA/NAE, 1989). The RIM provides New England-specific guidance on: permit application and coordination requirements; sampling methodologies; updated reference site locations; contaminants of concern and analytical reporting limits; and species and test conditions for biological testing.

Contract debts result from amounts that have been paid to the contractor, to which the contractor is not entitled under the terms and conditions of the contract, or amounts otherwise due from the contractor. Once it is determined that a contractor might be indebted to the DoD, the contracting officer, or the payment office, must issue a demand for payment to the contractor, providing opportunity to inspect relevant records, and the opportunity to request a review of the debt. To the extent practicable, debts should be collected, either by voluntary repayment in a lump sum or by administrative offset(s) of payment(s) owed to the contractor by the DoD, unless an installment agreement has been entered into or a deferment of collection has been approved.Financial Management Regulation (FMR), Collection, Debt, Contractors, Information, Reporting, GuidanceTHE CHAPTER WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN JANUARY 2016.THE CHAPTER WAS LAST REVISED IN AUGUST 2019 AND IS PUBLICLY AVAILABLE ON THE FMR WEBSITE.

The intent of IPA charges is to stimulate prompt debt payment, to compensate the government for loss of use of funds when debt is not paid timely, and to recover the cost of processing and handling delinquent debts, including referral to credit bureaus or collection agencies. DoD Components must accrue and assess a penalty charge, not to exceed 6 percent per annum, on any portion of the debt that is delinquent more than 90 days, to include interest and administrative charges. A debt becomes delinquent if not paid by the established due date; therefore, penalty charges must be applied to those accounts reported in the aging category 91-180 days delinquent and beyond.Financial Management Regulation (FMR), Interest, Penalties, Administrative Charges, Guidance, Information, RepaymentTHE CHAPTER WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN JANUARY 2016.THE CHAPTER WAS LAST REVISED IN MARCH 2019 AND IS PUBLICLY AVAILABLE ON THE FMR WEBSITE.

Military Lending Act Limitations on Terms of Consumer Credit Extended to Service Members and Dependents DOD-UPR-00027 The Department of Defense (Department) is amending its interpretive rule for the Military Lending Act (the MLA). The MLA, as implemented by the Department, limits the military annual percentage rate (MAPR) that a creditor may charge to a maximum of 36 percent, requires certain disclosures, and provides other substantive consumer protections on “consumer credit” extended to Service members and their families. On July 22, 2015, the Department amended its regulation primarily for the purpose of extending the protections of the MLA to a broader range of closed-end and open-end credit products (the July 2015 Final Rule). On August 26, 2016, the Department issued the first set of interpretations of that regulation in the form of questions and answers. On December 14, 2017, the Department issued a second set of interpretations of that regulation in the form of amended questions and answers. The Department is now withdrawing the amended question and answer number 2 (Q&A #2), published in the December 14, 2017 Interpretive Rule, which discussed when credit is extended for the purpose of purchasing a motor vehicle or personal property and the creditor simultaneously extends credit in an amount greater than the purchase price of the motor vehicle or personal property. In withdrawing this amended question and answer, the Department is reverting back to the original Q&A #2 published in the August 26, 2016 Interpretive Rule. This will allow the Department to conduct additional analysis on this matter. The Department is also adding a new question and answer to address questions about the use of Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers to identify covered borrowers in the Department's database.
