CAP Section 103 Small Beach Erosion Control Section 103 of the River & Harbor Act of 1962, as amended What the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Can Do The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is authorized to study, design and construct projects to reduce damages from beach erosion and hurricane and storm damage reduction. Study Process The first $100,000 of the feasibility study is a federal expense, all costs after the first $100,000 will be shared at 50 percent federal and 50 percent non-federal requiring a Feasibility Cost Sharing Agreement (FCSA) with the sponsor(s). All design and implementation costs are cost shared 65 percent federal and 35 percent non-federal. Each project is limited to a total federal cost of $3 million. Responsibility of Project sponsor Formal assurance in the form of a Project Partnership Agreement must be executed with the project sponsor. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers would oversee project construction; however, once constructed, the maintenance and operation of the project would be the responsibility of the project sponsor. The sponsor must contribute 35 percent of the total project implementation cost as cash or lands, easements, rights-of-way, relocations, and disposal areas (LERRDs). If the value of the LERRDs plus the cash contribution does not equal or exceed 35 percent of the project cost, the sponsor must pay the additional amount necessary so that the sponsor’s total contribution equals 35 percent of the project cost. If there are any recreation features associated with the project, the sponsor’s LERRD contribution increases to 50 percent. How to Request Assistance An investigation of a prospective small beach erosion control project under Section 103 may be initiated upon receipt of a request from a sponsoring agency empowered under state law to provide local partnership and availability of funds. Project requests should be directed to: Susanne J. Davis, P.E. Chief Planning Branch U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Office: (312) 846-5580 susanne.j.davis@usace.army.mil 17 R
