These two books discuss the planning processes involved in water resources projects within the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Using Corps of Engineers projects, researchers from the National Research Council discuss the environmental concerns addressed in waterway projects. They discuss information authorities that are considered and show how this information is included in the project planning process. USACE planning is also examined in the context of water resources projects throughout the United States. In addition, projects in the Corps of Engineers are also discussed, showing trends that are presenting new opportunities and challenges for future projects and planning. Both books provide concise and authoritative overviews of water projects and their place in the thinking of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
