First National Conference on Climate and Water Resources Management
In late 1991 a group of highly respected climate modelers, water resources scientists, and water managers gathered in Albuquerque, New Mexico, to consider the complex issues that are related to climate change and impacts that such change may have on water resources management. The two and a half day conference was the brainchild of Mr. Joel Smith, who at that time was Deputy Director, Office of Policy and Planning Evaluation, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. He was successful in obtaining the co-sponsorship of the five federal agencies that have primary water resources development, management, regulation, and data collection missions. Representatives of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Bureau of Reclamation, U.S. Geological Survey, and National Weather Service, together with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, comprised the steering committee that organized the conference. Support was provided by I 1 nongovernmental associations and organizations that are involved with water issues. The names of those organizations and acknowledgement of their support can be found printed inside the front cover of this document.

Fleet Forecasts for the United States to 2020
The distribution of vessel sizes that will serve U.S. ports is a critical assumption in _ Corps of Engineers planning studies to determine potential benefits of harbor improvement projects. The planning horizon for such studies requires fleet forecasts that go beyond those routinely used for shipping industry purposes. The forecast is limited to vessels serving U.S. foreign trade, but is based on analysis of worldwide shipping supply and demand. Global seaborne trade projections were developed by DRI/McGraw-Hill in cooperation with Temple, Barker 4 Sloane, Inc. (TES). Lloyd's Maritime Services, Ltd. (LMIS) provided data on ship utilization, construction, and scrapping. A model developed by TES related supply to demand and accounted for vessel redeployments, retirements, and additions to fleet capacity. The forecasts are in tons of cargo available and tons of ship capacity, by size range for 11 vessel types, for 75 trade routes serving five U.S. coastal ranges (North Atlantic, South Atlantic, Gulf, North Pacific, South Pacific). Forecast intervals are 1995, 2000, 2010, and 2020.

Flood Damage Analysis within the Readiness Management System
This report describes application of the Hydrologic Engineering Center Flood Damage Analysis (HEC-FDA) programs used in the Omaha District, Corps of Engineers, Readiness Management System demonstration project below Oahe Dam on the Missouri River. The project applied Geographic Information System (GIS) data, processed and stored using the Geographic Resources Analysis Support System (GRASS), to generate much of the input data to the flood damage programs. The raster formatted data included land use (damage categories), reference flood, topographic, and damage reach boundary variables. The HEC-DAMCAL program used the data to develop, and store in HEC-DSS, elevationdamage and elevation-number of structure relationships by category and damage reach and elevation-crop area relationships by damage reach. These relationships were subsequently retrieved by the HEC-PBA program to generate urban and crop flood damage by damage reach, state, and congressional district boundary.

Flood Damage Prevention Services of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers: An Evaluation of Policy Changes and Programs Outcomes During 1970-1983 Measured Against Criteria of Equity, Efficiency, and Responsiveness
Despite substantial Federal insentient in activities designed to reduce flood damages in the United States, average annual damages continue to rise and are now estimated at nearly $3 billion per year. 1 Significant urban development and Millions of acres of the nation's agricultural production are on lands subject to flooding. When floods occur, 1) life is endangered and disrupted, 2) productive capacities are impaired, 3) transportation and utility lines - are damaged, 4) property and crops are destroyed, and 5) soils are eroded. Flooding can be, and often is, sudden and traumatic, bringing with it loss of life, severe economic losses, adverse social impacts, and environmental damage.

Flood Risk Management Approaches as Being Practiced in Japan, Netherlands, United Kingdom, and United States.
This document reflects contributions from agencies within the four participating nations. It is organized around a conceptual framework developed to encompass flood risk drivers, risk assessment, and the source-path-receptor concept; the flood risk management cycle with its overarching policies and supporting players and mechanisms; and the adaptive management cycle of maintenance, monitoring, evaluation, and adjustment over time. Despite their varied histories and circumstances, the four countries face similar key challenges. These include adapting to new understandings of risk that take into account the impacts of climate change, bridging gaps between land-use decisions and flood risk management considerations, effectively communicating risk to the general public in a way that promotes individual as well as societal responsibility, and aligning planning and actions to identify and meet the most critical risks within a framework that is socially, environmentally, economically, and politically acceptable. The approaches presented comprise a collective set of best practices among the four countries.

Flow Transitions in Bridge Backwater Analysis
Bridges across floodplain may require special attention in one dimensional hydraulic modeling if they cause sever contraction and expansion of the flow. The accurate prediction of the energy losses in the contraction reach up stream of the bridge and the expansion reach down stream of the bridge using one dimension models presents particular difficulty. Modeling these reaches requires the accurate evaluation of four parameters: the expansion reach length, the contraction reach length, the expansion coefficient, and the contraction coefficient. this report presents reach conducted by the author to investigate these four parameters through the use of field data, two dimensional hydraulic modeling, and one dimensional modeling

(A)Framework for Risk Analysis in Ecological Restoration Projects
This report provides a framework for incorporating risk analysis into the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) six-step planning process for ecosystem restoration projects. This report is part of a larger research and development effort to develop procedures and guidelines for risk analysis in USACE ecosystem restoration planning. The focus is on risk analysis: identifying the range of possible outcomes from alternative ecosystem restoration actions, assessing the potential for achieving the desired outcome, characterizing the likelihood of adverse consequences, and communicating these findings to stakeholders and decision makers. This framework document makes simplifying assumptions to allow a focus on incorporating risk information in the planning and decision-making process. A conceptual model of the site and landscape is advocated as a central organizing structure within the six-step process for ecosystem restoration project planning. This is responsive to USACE directives that restoration projects be conceived in a systems context using an ecosystem and/or watershed approach. The conceptual model delineates the empirical quantities to be addressed in risk analysis and modeling. Although the planning process is described in six distinct steps, in practice these steps are iterative and often carried out simultaneously. Risk analysis within this context has the same character.

(A)Framework for Uncertainty Management in Water Resources Planning
This document is the product of a study to develop a methodology which Army Corps of Engineers' planners could utilize to explicitly consider uncertainties, i.e., uncontrollable and unanticipated eventualities, that can adversely affect water resource planning. The study attempts to broaden the planning process by considering the changing nature of the environment for water resource planning, and to provide a better way to recognize "uncertainties" and anticipate their impacts prior to decision to implement any specific actions. The ultimate purpose is to provide an anticipato procedure that will assist the planner to avoid, where possible, the adverse consequences of unanticipated events. In summary, the management oi uncertainty in Water Resource Plannin introduces a major choice involving risk taking (1) Delay action and pay more (in time and resources) to further reduce uncertainty/risk, or (2) Take action now, and accept the presence of uncertainty/risk This report describes the methodology for: (a) Making this choice, recognizing the vital importance of the manager's perception of, and willingness to take risk (b) Procedures for structuring uncertainty, having made the choice. In essence, the methodology provides a quantitative basis for trading off resources (time and cost) to gain information versus the acceptance of uncertainty/risk.

(The)Future of Intergovernmental Relations and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers - Changing Traditions and Building New Partnerships
One of the distinguishing characteristics of intergovernmental relations as a field is that they are often enmeshed in policy questions concerning financing. This certainly holds true for the new situation expected for the Civil Works Program - a program described by the Corps' leadership as entering a "new partnership". Although the meaning of this term is not yet clear, it signifies a different working paradigm, or a fresh understanding, of the roles various participants play in the national water resources program. Major responsibilities will be shifted from the Federal government, to state and local project sponsors. Flexibility and innovation will be required of project partners because there will be few 'cookbook' solutions. Each district within the Corps will find itself with different challenges depending on the capabilities and institutional constraints faced by potential project sponsors. Parts of this paper will outline those factors and be purely informational, but its primary purpose will be to analyze the new roles and relationships within the water resources community. The conclusions are followed by policy options which are offered to help institutionalize a new water resources planning and development framework.
