National Water Resources Challenges Facing the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
Author: National Research Council
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309211328
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 50
Book Description
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) is responsible for construction, operations, and maintenance of much of the nation's water resources infrastructure. This infrastructure includes flood control levees, multi-purpose dams, locks, navigation channels, port and harbor facilities, and beach protection infrastructure. The Corps of Engineers also regulates the dredging and filling of wetlands subject to federal jurisdictions. Along with its programs for flood damage reduction and support of commercial navigation, ecosystem restoration was added as a primary Corps mission area in 1996. The National Research Council (NRC) Committee on U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on Water Resources Science, Engineering, and Planning was convened by the NRC at the request of the Corps of Engineers to provide independent advice to the Corps on an array of strategic and planning issues. National Water Resources Challenges Facing the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers surveys the key water resources challenges facing the Corps, the limits of what might be expected today from the Corps, and future prospects for the agency. This report presents several findings, but no recommendations, to the Corps of Engineers based on initial investigations and discussions with Corps leadership. National Water Resources Challenges Facing the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers can serve as a foundational resource for the Corps of Engineers, U.S. Congress, federal agencies, and Corps project co-sponsors, among others.

Great Lakes and Ohio River Division
Author: Leland R. Johnson
Publisher: Department of the Army
ISBN: 9780160945205
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
This historical reference accounts for the first decade of the Great Lakes and Ohio River Division's place within the United States Army Corps of Engineers (U.S.A.C.E.) and its navigational projects that began in 1824. The Great Lakes and Ohio River Division, formed in 1997, manages two magnificent water resource systems--the Great Lakes and the Ohio River basin. The Great Lakes and Ohio River Division inherited command of seven district offices located in Buffalo, Chicago, Detroit, Huntington, Louisville, Nashville, and Pittsburgh. In this first decade of service, this division saw many critical changes. This resource traces those changes from the formative challenges of 1997 through the millennium matrix, global deployment, and regional management years into an urgent military construction program at the end of its first decade. It underscores numerous challenges and accomplishments during this timeframe from historical phases to current resolutions.
