| Planning, Programs, Project Management Division | ||||
The mission of this Division is to manage U.S. Army Corps of Engineers projects from the study phase through construction completion--including an inspection and assistance role throughout the operation and maintenance of the project. The typical phases of a project are: the Planning Phase; the Preconstruction, Engineering and Design Phase (including the development of plans and specifications); the Construction Phase; and the Operation and Maintenance Phase. Typically, a Corps project has a sponsor that cost-shares the study, design, and construction costs, and then operates and maintains the project upon completion. Also, there are other interested parties, environmental groups, organizations, other Corps offices, and governmental agencies that are partners or 'stakeholders' involved in the planning and review process. This Division includes engineers, social scientists, economists, biologists, ecologists, archeologists, budget and program analysts and support staff. |
