Engineering Guidelines for Crossings
These guidelines and documents provide information that will be used when reviewing the engineering and operations and maintenance aspects of requests to authorize the crossing and use of Reclamation lands that contain project features such as levees, canals, pipelines or other water conveyance facilities owned or administered by Reclamation.
The guidelines also include a general overview of the application permitting process for land use authorizations allowing a particular use on lands under the administration of Reclamation, and provide minimum engineering and construction recommendations for use in reviewing and evaluating applications.
