Welcome to the public affairs web page for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Mississippi Valley Division and the Mississippi River Commission.

The mission of the MVD/MRC public affairs team is to employ professional communication and management skills in planning, developing, executing and evaluating public affairs initiatives that support MVD's missions, policies, programs, projects and operations.

The Internet is one tool we employ to keep you informed of our work in the Mississippi Valley and the nation. Through proactive involvement with the media, civic and special interest groups, political interests and the public, we have opened the doors to the Mississippi Valley Division headquarters to provide you with information we hope you find useful.

Through this page you will find current general and specific information about the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, its history, the division headquarters and its six districts.  Our goal is to inform you about our people, projects and issues in the Mississippi Valley and in your community.  Our pages will be routinely updated, so please visit us again.

Our regular business hours are 8:00 a.m. until 4.30 p.m. Monday through Friday.  Please feel free to contact any of our public affairs team members for questions, concerns or comments.  If you don’t find what you want on this page, call, fax or e-mail us, and we’ll be happy to assist you.
