New guidance released earlier this month by the Army Corps of Engineers is raising more questions than it answers when it comes to projects that potentially impact federally protected waters of the United States.

POLITICO’S Alex Guillén breaks down the latest guidance and how it could impact hundreds of projects across the building, mining and agricultural sectors.
