been the long standing policy of the Corps to secure compliance with the law 
short of legal proceedings. Prosecution is recommended on flagrant wiolations, 
such as oil spills. Action toward correcting the condition when possible is 
a primary objective. Letters of warning are issued when the violation of law 
is trivial, apparently unpremeditated, results. in no material public injury, 
and where available proof will not support prosectuion.
