DEP’s Bridge and Culvert Maintenance & Repair Tool is an online interactive tool designed to assist bridge and culvert owners in determining what, if any, permit and notification requirements are needed for bridge and culvert maintenance and repair. By answering questions about the bridge and culvert, the nature of the proposed work, and to avoid delays the tool will direct you on how to move forward with your project.


There are many technical & educational resources for the water obstruction and encroachment regulatory program. Technical guidance documents and fact sheets are available as well on the Forms, Publications, and Guidance page. DEP intends to add more resources to this webpage over time.
