LOW IMPACT DEVELOPMENT WAIVER FORM

Page 2 of 3 08/2012

Navy Low Impact Development (LID) Policy (commonly referred to as the Penn Memo) authorized a waiver process to be used in those infrequent situations where LID is not appropriate given the characteristics of the site. This waiver process is required to include Regional Engineer (FEC Commander) level review and approval.

Navy and Marine Corps projects are required to comply with Navy LID policy. The Navy LID policy sets a goal of no net increase in stormwater and sediment or nutrient loading from major renovation and construction projects. Major renovation projects are defined as having a stormwater component and exceeding $5 million. Major construction projects are defined as exceeding $750,000. If LID is not implemented to the METF as defined in UFC 3-210-10, a Navy LID policy waiver must be obtained from the Regional Engineer. Coordinate waiver review and approval with the Government’s civil technical discipline coordinator (TDC).

Note: If LID is implemented to the METF as defined in UFC 3-210-10 a waiver is not required.

Request for waivers are discouraged except in those infrequent cases where there are compelling reasons. The waiver process is time consuming and waiver requests should be submitted as early as possible in the development of the project to avoid delays. Submit the LID waiver form along with DD 1391, basis of design, drawings, and specifications. For Post Award Design Build projects, the construction contractor is responsible for making the submittal to the Construction Manager (CM). For Pre Award Design Build and Design Bid Build projects, the Designer of Record (DOR) 1 is responsible for making the submittal to the Project Manager (PM). Refer to the FC 1-300-09N Navy and Marine Corps Design Procedures for additional criteria.

Note: The Navy LID Waiver is not applicable where LID is required in accordance with EISA Section 438. UFC 3-210-10 addresses DoD requirements for complying with EISA Section 438. Use UFC 3-210-10 paragraph titled Applicability to determine when LID is required to comply with EISA Section 438.
