Water Resources Assistance



The Water Resources Assistance Pamphlet explains how the Corps of Engineers Galveston District may help solve water resource problems and provide technical assistance. It includes an overview of the Corps programs, with special attention to the Continuing Authorities Program and Technical Assistance.

Almost everyone knows that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers builds water resources projects. Not so well known, however, is that the Corps also helps states, Indian Tribes, and local governments prepare their own plans and initiate their own actions to manage their water and related land resources.

This booklet describes three of the Corps’ most effective and efficient small projects programs:

  • Continuing Authorities
  • Flood Plain Management Services
  • Planning Assistance to States

It explains what these programs can do and the types of information, technical services, and planning guidance they can provide to help others help themselves.

It also includes instruction on how to request assistance and the address and telephone number of the Galveston District where additional information may be obtained.
