In
an earlier post, I provided an overview of the Corps of Engineers guidance used
in reservoir operations and in the development of water control manuals.
Overview of Water Control Manual Guidance
In this post, I provide an overview of the contents of Chapter 3
in water control manuals.
Chapter 3 provides the history of the project.
- Authorization of the project
- History of the planning and design for the project
- History of construction activities for the projects
For Chapter 3 of the water control manual, a table of significant events is typically included. An example of such a table is shown below.
The recommended sections in Chapter 3 are as follows:
Chapter 3 - History of Project
3-01 Authorization for Project
3-02 Planning and Design
3-03 Construction
3-04 Related Projects
3-05 Dam Safety History / Issues
3-06 Principal Regulation Issues
3-07 Modifications to Regulations
