OSTI ID:6765389

Part I of the hearing record covers appropriations for six divisions of the Corps of Engineers. Testimony by William R. Gianelli, Assistant Secretary of the Army (Civil Works), and officers in the Corps of Engineers reviewed the 1985 budget request of $2.491 billion, discussed the implications of pending legislation, and described the status of specific projects. They noted the limitations on construction and engineering preplanning because of disagreement on financing and the administration's efforts towards project cost sharing. Gianelli described the economic benefits of regulatory reforms that have made administration and permitting more efficient, partly because of the introduction of private and alternative financing. The testimony covers the Ohio River, Missouri River, North Central, North Atlantic, New England, and South Atlantic Divisions.
