determine_nwp_pathway — Determine which of the 57 US Army Corps of Engineers nationwide permits (2026 reissuance, 91 FR 768, effective 15 March 2026) could authorise a project's impact to a wetland, stream or other water of the United States, whether a pre-construction notification is triggered, and what still needs checking at the district and state Section 401 layers.
lookup_nationwide_permit — The compiled record for one nationwide permit: title, summary, acreage limit (including the tidal/non-tidal split where the permit sets one), whether a pre-construction notification is always, never or conditionally required, and the source citation.
list_nwp_reference_data — The reference sets behind determine_nwp_pathway: all 38 USACE districts (name, division, member states, whether regional conditions are compiled), all 54 states/territories (whether the Section 401 certification is compiled), or the activity-to-candidate-permit mapping.
get_stormwater_requirements — The requirements for a site: inspection frequency, stabilisation deadlines, Notice of Intent and Notice of Termination deadlines, corrective-action windows, record retention and buffer rules, each citing the permit section it came from.
get_preparer_credential — Whether a state requires a credentialed preparer (California's Qualified SWPPP Developer, and the analogous credential elsewhere) to prepare or sign a stormwater pollution prevention plan, and whether that requirement bites for a site of this size.
list_jurisdictions — Every state, territory and DC we hold a row for: NPDES authorisation status, the governing permit and its number, the agency name and URL, and the preparer-credential gate.
get_usage — What the credential on this connection is allowed to do: the tier it resolves to (anonymous, sandbox, test key, or a live key on a plan), the per-minute burst, the daily or monthly allowance, and whether calls bill.
