Identifying Small Group Techniques for Planning Environmental Projects: A General Protocol
This is a hypothetical example of a study manager preparing for a meeting. There are a number of variables to account for, such as personalities, familiarity with the planning process, and differing goals of participants. There are many small group techniques that could be used for guiding the scoping meeting mentioned above, but there is limited time for deciding which approach to use. This report is designed to provide a protocol, based on the components in Figure I-1, that Corps planners can use to identify small-group techniques to achieve the desired results of the meeting. It will also prepare planners to interact with facilitators when developing a meeting format that uses small-group techniques.

Implementing Financial Assurance for Mitigation Project Success
Implementing financial assurances for mitigation project success can be challenging and place demands on regulators outside their regular areas of practice and expertise. The Institute for Water Resources prepared this white paper on financial assurance for mitigation project success to provide a reference resource for Corps district staff involved with establishing and overseeing financial assurances. The paper reviews key design and implementation issues and considerations relating to the use of financial assurances for mitigation project success. It describes and compares key features of alternative assurance instruments. The paper is intended to be a "living document" that will be updated periodically as more information becomes available.

(The)Implications of the Net Fiscal Benefits Criterion for Cost Sharing in Flood Control Projects
The research, based on accepted theory of public finance and grounded in welfare economics theory, reaches important findings in a number of controversial areas. First, it is concluded that the net fiscal benefits criterion has important advantages in the determination of what local governments would be willing to contribute to the cost of flood control projects, but somewhat less applicability to the analysis of economic efficiency benefits and costs from a national perspective. Second, its value in assessing relative effectiveness of investment from the federal government's perspective is negligible, since a portion of individual income gains are returned as tax revenues for all possible types of Federal expenditures. Several significant problems in estimation of net fiscal benefits to state and local governments were identified and further empirical studies recommended.

Improving Environmental Benefits Analysis in Ecosystem Restoration Planning
This study examined ecological and economic concepts relevant to improving environmental benefits analysis, and recommends a strategy for improving related tools, application capabilities, policy and guidance. In planning ecosystem restoration projects, the Corps uses non-monetary indicators of benefit in cost-effectiveness analysis and incremental analysis, rather than economic benefit-cost analysis. These non-monetary indicators can be supplemented by consideration of incidental monetary benefits. In cases of joint formulation for contributions to both National Ecosystem Restoration (NER) and National Economic Development (NED), formulation and evaluation uses a combination of monetized NED outputs and non-monetized NER outputs. Ideally, all significant effects from projects would be expressed in the same unitmeasure, but technical limitations currently impede this. Analytical difficulty escalates as the number of outputs considered increases, thus, a significant challenge in ecosystem restoration planning is reducing the number of different outputs considered in cost-effectiveness analysis to a manageable number of those most significant.

Interregional Planning of Water Resources Allocations By Systems Analysis Approach
The general objective of the study was to develop the methodology for determining optimal allocation of water in Utah, given alternative assumptions and constraints. The approach was to structure a statewide model of water use and delivery in a linear programming framework, explicitly including the water supply system, various demands for water, and alternative water salvage, reuses and transfers under consideration by water planners. . The optimal solutions to the statewide programming model were based upon net economic returns to water in'the state given alternative assumptions and were,therefore, the economically efficient allocation of Utah's water supply.

Investigation of the Relationship between Land Use and Wildlife Abundance, Volume I
This report is on the results of Phase I of a two-phase project on wildlife - land use relationships. The overall objective is to facilitate the evaluation of the influence of water resource development actions by the Corps on land use and terrestrial wildlife populations. In that habitat is dependent on land use, the project approach to the investigation of wildlife - land use relationships is by way of habitat evaluation. This report includes (1) a review of the literature on habitat evaluation methods and on the state-of-the-art for quantifying wildlife-habitat relationships, (2) a review of current data gaps in habitat evaluation and in wildlife studies, (3) a summary assessment of available habitat evaluation methods, and (4) a proposed plan for testing and comparing selected habitat evaluation methods under field conditions.

Investment Planning of Interdependent Waterway Improvement Project
Investment planning for reconstruction and rehabilitation of inland waterway lock and dam facilities may be classified as capital budgeting. Capital budgeting is typically associated with large investments of resources over long periods of time while subject to a budget constraint. Capital budgeting situations arise in the public sector when an overall constraint is imposed on the size of the budget so that it is not possible to implement all projects having positive net benefits. While there are perhaps 60 or more lock and dam improvement projects believed to be economically viable, it is clear that their combined costs exceed available funds so that some delays in start times are unavoidable.

Issues and Applications in Formulation and Evaluation Considering the 4 P & G Accounts
This white paper highlights the challenges and potential approaches when considering these accounts in project planning, particularly with respect to formulation, evaluation and selection. The advantages and disadvantages of each approach are discussed to help inform discussion on this topic, which is believed to be quite relevant given recent WRDA 2007 proposals calling for updates and revisions to the Principles & Guidelines, regulations, and circulars. The paper also identified other issues towards the end of the white paper which may require follow-up study or special attention.

Issues for Applications Developers
Development of the right applications software the water industry that is robust, flexible, maintainable, and portable requires a strategy that determines user needs, creates software in a develop, test, user feedback process, and includes training and support. Software engineering decisions related to the choice of engineering methodologies, program architecture, coding languages, graphic and other support libraries, and adoption of hardware ad software industry standards are critical to success. Development of engineering applications software is best accomplished by organizations with experience in both the problem addressed and software development and support.
