Afaik, the SCS (Now, named the National Resources Conservation Service)
has no standing to issue permits. My county's Conservation District does
issue some minor water permits, but it's under the supervision of the
state Dept. of Environmental Protection.

Yes, and if your stream is navigable or tributary to navigable waters,
you will also need a permit from the Corps of Engineers. Your local
conservation services field rep has all the forms for permit
applications, and details of acceptable projects. If your goal is
actually soil conservation and watershed improvement, not a new boat
dock or trout pond, you will find the permit process is pretty
straightforward. If you can't read the handouts, or just want to be a
jerk, hell will freeze over before you get a permit.
