Initial Deployment of ORM

The OMBIL Regulatory Module (ORM) is an automated information system used by the Army Corps of Engineers to collect information on their regulatory program. ORM has the capability to track regulatory actions associated with CWA Section 404 and RHA Section 10 permit applications, including impact acreage, wetland type and acreages, and mitigation type and acreages. ORM has a basic built-in GIS and will support a more sophisticated GIS and the exchange of information among regulatory agencies, states, the public and others. The long term implementation of ORM will provide the capability to track wetland and mitigation trends and will also support a watershed-based approach for the review of regulatory actions.
