“I am writing you today with the hope that I can stir some interest in you to write an article concerning regulation 36 CFR Part 327.13 which pertains to the possession and transportation of firearms on United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) water resources development projects,” an email from a correspondent who has been trying for years to get restrictions cut back explained. “The current regulation is inconsistent with other Federal Land Management agency regulations in that it requires an individual to be granted written permission from USACE District Commanders rather than follow the applicable federal, state and local laws. The written permission, once obtained, must be carried along with your state issued concealed carry license, state or federal ID and be presented to individuals with authority upon request when on USACE properties.”
Complete rules and regulations are as follows:
36 CFR § 327.13 – Explosives, firearms, other weapons and fireworks.
327.13 Explosives, firearms, other weapons and fireworks.
(a) The possession of loaded firearms, ammunition, loaded projectile firing devices, bows and arrows, crossbows, or other weapons is prohibited unless:
(1) In the possession of a Federal, state or local law enforcement officer;
(2) Being used for hunting or fishing as permitted under § 327.8, with devices being unloaded when transported to, from or between hunting and fishing sites;
(3) Being used at authorized shooting ranges; or
(4) Written permission has been received from the District Commander.
(b) Possession of explosives or explosive devices of any kind, including fireworks or other pyrotechnics, is prohibited unless written permission has been received from the District Commander.
[65 FR 6901, Feb. 11, 2000]
Armed Attorneys addressed this on their popular YouTube channel back in March (video below), emphasizing that penalties for violating the rules can include “fines up to $5,000 and six months in prison.”
