This appropriation funds the construction, replacement, and
expansion of water resources projects whose principal purpose
is to provide commercial navigation, flood and storm damage
reduction, or aquatic ecosystem restoration benefits to the
Nation, and related activities. The Budget shows all activity
financed through the Inland Waterways Trust Fund as occurring in that account.
This account allocates funds based on performance-based
guidelines, which improve the overall performance of the construction program by redirecting funds to high-performing
projects and limiting new construction starts.
1. Project rankings.—All ongoing specifically authorized construction projects, including projects funded in the Mississippi
River and Tributaries account, will be assigned based upon
their primary purpose to one of the main mission areas of
the Corps (flood and storm damage reduction, commercial
navigation, and aquatic ecosystem restoration) or to hydropower. Flood and storm damage reduction, commercial navigation, and hydropower projects will be ranked by their total
benefits divided by their total costs (BCR), calculated at a
seven percent real discount rate. Aquatic ecosystem restoration projects will be ranked by the extent to which they costeffectively contribute to the restoration of a nationally or regionally significant aquatic ecosystem that has become degraded as a result of a civil works project, or to a restoration
effort for which the Corps is otherwise uniquely well-suited
(e.g., because the solution requires complex alterations to the
hydrology and hydraulics of a river system).
2. Projects funded on the basis of their economic and environmental returns.—Ongoing flood and storm damage reduction, commercial navigation, and hydropower construction
projects with a BCR of 1.5 or higher and ongoing aquatic
ecosystem restoration construction projects that are cost-effective in contributing to the restoration of a nationally or re-

gionally significant aquatic ecosystem that has become degraded as a result of a civil works project or to a restoration
effort for which the Corps is otherwise uniquely well-suited
will receive at least the amount needed to pay estimated
contractor earnings required under ongoing contracts and related costs. In allocating funds among these projects, priority
will be given to those with the highest economic and environmental returns.
3. Projects funded to address significant risk to human safety.—Flood and storm damage reduction projects that are funded to address significant risk to human safety will receive
sufficient funding to support an uninterrupted effort during
the budget year.
4. Projects with low economic and environmental returns.—
Ongoing flood and storm damage reduction, commercial navigation, and hydropower construction projects with a BCR
below 1.5 will be considered for deferral, except for flood
and storm damage reduction projects that are funded to address significant risk to human safety. Likewise, ongoing
aquatic ecosystem restoration construction projects that do
not cost-effectively contribute to the restoration of a nationally
or regionally significant aquatic ecosystem that has become
degraded as a result of a civil works project, and do not
cost-effectively address a problem for which the Corps is otherwise uniquely well-suited, will be considered for deferral.
5. New starts and resumptions.—The budget could include
funds to start up new construction projects, or to resume
work on ongoing construction projects on which the Corps
has not performed any physical work under a construction
contract during the past three consecutive fiscal years, only
if the project would be ranked that year in the top 20 percent
of the ongoing construction projects in the budget in its mission area. The term ‘‘physical work under a construction contract’’ does not include activities related to project planning,
engineering and design, relocation, or the acquisition of lands,
easements, or rights-of-way. For non-structural flood damage
reduction projects, construction begins in the first fiscal year
in which the Corps acquires lands, easements, or rights-ofway primarily to relocate structures, or performs physical
work under a construction contract for non-structural projectrelated measures. For aquatic ecosystem restoration projects,
construction begins in the first fiscal year in which the Corps
acquires lands, easements, or rights-of-way primarily to facilitate the restoration of degraded aquatic ecosystems including
wetlands, riparian areas, and adjacent floodplains, or performs physical work under a construction contract to modify
existing project facilities primarily to restore the aquatic ecosystem. For all other projects, construction begins in the first
fiscal year in which the Corps performs physical work under
a construction contract.
6. Other cases.—Projects will receive the amount needed
to ensure that they comply with treaties and with biological
opinions pursuant to the Endangered Species Act, and meet
authorized mitigation requirements.
Dam safety assurance, seepage control, and static instability correction projects that are funded in the construction
program will receive the maximum level of funding that the
Corps can efficiently and effectively spend each year.
The Administration proposes that the Executive Branch and
the Congress apply these guidelines to the Corps construction
account and to the construction activities in the Mississippi
River and Tributaries account.
This account includes $64 million for work under the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP), which represents 4 percent of the total amount in this account and
1 percent of the total amount in the civil works program.
Funding CERP at this level would not have a significant
impact on the overall civil works program in 2008. Future
levels of construction account funding for CERP will depend
on the availability of funds, and the impact of such future

CORPS OF ENGINEERS—CIVIL—Continued
Federal Funds—Continued

CORPS OF ENGINEERS—CIVIL WORKS

funding on the overall civil works program cannot be determined at this time. Funding for the Department of the Interior (DOI) includes an additional $9 million for work under
CERP.
Also included in this account is $98 million for other work
related to the ongoing effort to restore the Everglades/South
Florida ecosystem. Funding for DOI includes $64 million for
such non-CERP work.
The 2008 Budget for the two agencies includes a total of
$235 million for Everglades/South Florida ecosystem restoration work, of which $73 million is for CERP and $162 million
is for non-CERP work.
This appropriation also funds continuing authorities programs (the planning, design, and construction of projects that
do not require specific legislation). These programs include
projects for flood control (Section 205), emergency streambank
and shoreline protection (Section 14), beach erosion control
(Section 103), snagging and clearing (Section 208), aquatic
ecosystem restoration (Section 206), and project modifications
for improvement of the environment (Section 1135).

of infrastructure, where the extent of the work is not large
enough to be considered a replacement; Endangered Species
Act compliance, where the Corps is implementing a reasonable and prudent alternative set forth in a biological opinion
in order to be able to continue operating an existing project
without jeopardizing the existence of federally listed species;
the construction of facilities, projects or features (including
islands and wetlands) to use materials dredged during Federal navigation operation and maintenance activities; and the
mitigation of impacts on shorelines resulting from Federal
navigation operation and maintenance activities.
This appropriation funds all of the costs associated with
protecting Corps facilities from potential security threats. It
also funds the national emergency preparedness program
under Executive Order 11490.
This account does not include any funding for the operation
and maintenance of CERP in 2008; therefore, funding CERP
at this level would not have a significant impact on the overall Corps Civil Works program. No CERP projects have been
completed, and the work scheduled for CERP over the next
couple of years will not involve the operation and maintenance of projects. Future levels of funding for operation and
maintenance will depend on the pace of project construction
and availability of funds. The impact of such future funding
on the overall Corps civil works program cannot be determined at this time.

This appropriation funds operation, maintenance, and related activities at the water resources projects that the Corps
operates and maintains. Work to be accomplished consists
of dredging, repair, and operation of structures and other
facilities, as authorized in the various River and Harbor,
Flood Control, and Water Resources Development Acts. Related activities include aquatic plant control, monitoring of
completed projects where appropriate, removal of sunken vessels, and the collection of domestic waterborne commerce statistics. The Budget shows all activity financed through the
Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund and the Inland Waterways
Trust Fund as occurring within those accounts. To improve
accountability and oversight, reflect the full cost of operating
and maintaining existing projects, and support an integrated
investment strategy, the Budget funds the following activities

a portion of the cost of maintaining and upgrading recreation
facilities through the collection of additional user fees. The
Corps would also undertake a limited number of demonstration projects to upgrade Corps recreation facilities at little
or no cost to the Federal Government using new planning,
management and financing arrangements with State and local
government park authorities, local communities, or the private sector. Under the Operation and Maintenance and Mississippi River and Tributaries accounts, the Budget provides
a total of $267 million for recreation activities in 2008.

This appropriation funds studies to determine the need,
engineering feasibility, and economic and environmental return to the Nation of potential solutions to water and related
land resource problems; and funds preconstruction engineering and design, data collection, interagency coordination, and
research. Since the Corps civil works program already has
a large backlog of ongoing construction work, the Budget limits funding for the study and design of additional projects.

Although the Aqueduct is owned and operated by the Corps,
the customers finance the operation, maintenance, and major
capital improvement of Aqueduct facilities. Under current
law, the Aqueduct’s customers are required to pay the full
cost of making capital improvements at the Aqueduct in advance.

The Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund is authorized under
the Harbor Maintenance Revenue Act of 1986 (P.L. 99–662,
Title XIV), as amended. Revenue is derived from receipts
from a 0.125 percent ad valorem tax imposed upon commercial users of specified U.S. ports, Saint Lawrence Seaway
tolls, and investment interest. The Budget shows all activity
related to the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund as occurring
within this account, rather than in the Operation and Maintenance account.
The Harbor Maintenance Revenue Act authorized expenditures from this fund to finance up to 100 percent of Corps
harbor operation and maintenance costs, including the operation and maintenance of Great Lakes navigation projects.
The fund fully finances the operation and maintenance of
the Saint Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation. Section 201 of Public Law 104–303 authorized the Federal share
of the costs for the construction of dredged material disposal
facilities that are necessary for the operation and maintenance of coastal or inland harbors, the dredging and disposal
of contaminated sediments that are in or affect the operation
and maintenance of Federal navigation channels, the mitigation of impacts resulting from Federal navigation operation
and maintenance activities, and the operation and maintenance of dredged material disposal facilities for which fees
have been collected and deposited in the fund.
The North American Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act (P.L. 103–182, section 683) authorized payment from

the fund of administrative expenses incurred by the Department of the Treasury, the Corps, and the Department of
Commerce related to administration of the harbor maintenance tax, but not to exceed $5 million in any fiscal year.
A 1995 United States Court of International Trade decision,
United States Shoe Corp. v. United States (Case No. 94–
11–00668), found the harbor maintenance tax unconstitutional under the export clause of the Constitution (Article
I, section 9, clause 5), and enjoined the Customs Service from
collecting the tax on exports. The Supreme Court affirmed
that decision on March 31, 1998.

Inland Waterways Revenue Act of 1978 (P.L. 95–502), as
amended by the Water Resources Development Act of 1986
(P.L. 99–662). Revenue is derived from taxes imposed on fuel
for commercial vessels engaged in inland waterways transportation, plus investment interest. The Budget shows all activity
related to the Inland Waterways Trust Fund as occurring
within this account, rather than in the Construction, Operation and Maintenance, and Mississippi River and Tributaries
accounts.
The fund is used to pay one half of the costs associated
with the construction, replacement, expansion, and rehabilitation of Federal inland waterways projects.

The Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration
Act (P.L. 101–646, Title III, as amended) directs the Secretary
of the Interior to distribute to the Coastal Wetlands Restoration Trust Fund a portion of the amounts appropriated each
fiscal year from the Sport Fish Restoration Account. The Louisiana Coastal Wetlands Conservation and Restoration Task
Force, an interagency task force (consisting of the Corps, Environmental Protection Agency, Fish and Wildlife Service,
Natural Resources Conservation Service, National Marine
Fisheries Service, and the State of Louisiana) uses these
funds to plan, set priorities, and carry out projects for the
creation, protection, and restoration of coastal wetlands in
the State of Louisiana.

This fund, authorized in the Water Resources Development
Act of 1999 (P.L. 106–53), supports wildlife habitat restoration efforts undertaken by the State of South Dakota. The
establishment of this fund satisfies the Federal obligation
under the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (16 U.S.C. 1661
et seq.) to mitigate for the loss of habitat due to flooding
from the Oahe and Big Bend projects, which the Corps constructed under the Pick-Sloan Missouri River Basin program.
