USACE Environmental Operating Principles 5. Assess and mitigate cumulative impacts to environment • Project does not require any separable mitigation for cumulative impacts. 6. Build and share knowledge • Utilized engineering consultants for hydraulics/hydrology analysis on Wharton and the hydraulic design on Williamson because they were “experts” in the field. We will have that knowledge for the next design. 7. Respect the view of individuals and groups • Input from resource agencies and the public were adequately addressed and incorporated. • Wharton had no public comments. Viewpoint of USFWS is respected, but cannot accommodate their request, due to Corps regulations. October 26, 2006 One Team: Relevant, Ready, Responsive and Reliable 40
The 12 Points 1. Effectively Implement a Comprehensive Systems Approach (Points 1-8) • Watershed approach, with more recommendations likely. • Wharton project would implement 1% ACE (100-year) level protection for levees as well as interior drainage. 2. Communication (Points 9-10) • Onion Creek removes houses and residents from the floodplain thereby reducing risk. • Wharton understands the risk if an event larger than the design occurs. Project is designed for larger events to “flank” the levees, not overtop. 3. Reliable Public Service Professionalism (Points 11-12) • Utilized private consultants that had specialized expertise when it was unavailable at the District.
