Drivers for Change
USACE CW Program is not funded to
maintain current levels of service!
Unreliable Resource Engines
Increasing M needs and O&M Costs
Inability to Rehabilitate
Aging capital stock portfolio
Declining performance across all
business lines
Increasing National demand and competition for
water & water resources
