July Brown Bag February Brown Bag October Brown Bag [Back to The Wire's index] March 3, 2003 Brown Bag Lunch We recently talked to everybody’s staffers and senior staffers and it went real well. Across the board they were very appreciative of the Corps. They’re appreciative of the work that you do, appreciative of how you work with their constituents, of how we go about solving problems whenever we get congressional inquiries that come down that care what we do at the lake, working out there with the people, the attitudes of our people that our regulatory branch has as we try to deal with people and give them news that sometimes they don’t want to here. There were very appreciative of that and I’m very appreciative of all that you’ll have done to do that. What they say shows me some action that you’re appreciative. Well, this year Congress had put to language that said no money could be spent to study or implement any plans to privatizing, divesting or transferring any of the civil works missions, functions or responsibilities for the Corps and other government agencies without specific direction and subsequent act of Congress. Now, a lot of you all have heard about things they were looking at doing about moving some of our functions to other entities. Congress said no. They liked working with you in the Corps of Engineers because they know how it is working with other Federal agencies. That says something for the hard work that you all have been doing.

Public Affairs News History Biographies What We Do - Military Programs ... Local Links The history of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers began in June 1775 when the Continental Congress appointed a chief engineer and two assistants to the Continental Army, the day before the battle of Bunker Hill. The appointee, Colonel Richard Gridley, thus became the first Chief Engineer of the Army. His mission, as it was for all military engineers, was to facilitate the advance of friendly troops and impede that of the enemy. Throughout the war for independence, the engineers directed the construction of fortifications, emplacements, and barricades. At the close of the war, the engineer organization was dissolved, but only for a few years. In 1793 it was recreated to construct coastal defenses for the new nation. In 1802, a demand for public improvements and because many of the country's leaders envisioned a trained organization to perform both military and civil engineering tasks, Congress assigned to the Corps the mission of establishing a military academy at West Point, New York, to train in military and technical sciences. Increasingly during the early 19th century Congress and presidents assigned to engineer officers such duties as surveying, mapping, locating routes for and superintending the building of roads and canals, and building coastal defensive works. Thus it was early in the history of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers that the dual role it has today, military and civil works, was established. This dual role is totally unique to the Corps of Engineers, as it is the only organization within the Department of Defense performing such a dual function.

W here, when, and how did the Manhattan Project get its name? The Manhattan Engineer District was the formal code name for the United States government project to develop an atomic bomb during World War II. It soon became known as the Manhattan Project - a name taken from the location of the office of Colonel James C. Marshall, who had been selected by the United States Army Corps of Engineers to build and run the bomb's production facilities. When the project was activated by the United States War Department in June, 1942, it came under the direction of Colonel Leslie R. Groves.

USACE HTML and other Media: Civil Works Office and Mission Navigation Flood Damage Reduction Environmental Missions ... Water supply Civil Works Office and Mission Directorate of Civil Works Tri Service Solicitation Network Army involvement in works "of a civil nature" goes back almost to the origins of the U.S. Over the years, as the Nation's needs have changed, so have the Army's Civil Works missions. Those missions today fall in four broad areas: water infrastructure, environmental management and restoration, response to natural and manmade disasters, and engineering and technical services to the Army, DoD and other Federal agencies. At Corps of Engineers Headquarters in Washington, DC, the Directorate of Civil Works oversees the program. Civil Works projects are located throughout the United States. Funds for the Civil Works program come from the annual Energy and Water Development Appropriation, not the Defense budget. Add to that the cost-sharing funds supplied directly by non-Federal sponsors for specific projects and the total civil program is about $5 billion a year. Navigation Navigation Data Center Navigation Information Connection Navigation Education and Outreach Supporting navigation by maintaining and improving channels was the Corps of Engineers' earliest Civil Works mission, dating to Federal laws in 1824 authorizing the Corps to improve safety on the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers and several ports. Maintaining channels means keeping them at specified depths and widths by dredging and other means. Maintaining also means removing impediments, like logjams. Improving means making them deeper or wider.

Office of History No. 46 Did You Know? Women Played Key Roles in the Manhattan Project The U.S. government’s effort to produce an atomic bomb during World War II was assigned to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in mid-1942. Under the command of then-Brigadier General Leslie R. Groves, the Manhattan Engineer District (MED), based in New York City, began a construction effort that would include production sites across the United States and a workforce of 125,000. The four-year-long project of research and development, completed at a cost of $2 billion, was the most expensive public works project ever undertaken in U.S. history to that point. By the summer of 1945, three atomic bombs were produced, all of which were detonated by the end of the war. While significant numbers of civilian women served at all of the project sites, most of the women serving in MED were soldiers and officers of the U.S. Army. During World War II, more than 150,000 American women served in the Women's Army Corps (WAC), and WACs assigned to the Corps of Engineers participated in the Manhattan Project.

60. FUSRAP Fact Sheet 1950s, and 1960s, work was performed at sites throughout the United States as partof from the US Department of Energy to the US Army Corps of Engineers. http://www.hq.usace.army.mil/cecw/fusrap/geninf/WHATIS.HTM

WHAT IS FUSRAP? During the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s, work was performed at sites throughout the United States as part of the nation's early atomic energy program. Some sites' activities can be traced back as far as World War II and the Manhattan Engineer District (MED); other sites were involved in peacetime activities under the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC). Both MED and AEC were predecessors of DOE. Most sites that became contaminated during the early atomic energy program were cleaned up under the guidelines in effect at the time. Because in most cases those cleanup guidelines were not as strict as today's, trace amounts of radioactive materials remained at some of the sites. Over the years, contamination was spread to other locations, either by demolition of buildings, intentional movement of materials, or by natural processes. DOE began FUSRAP in 1974 to study these sites and take appropriate cleanup action. When a site is thought to be contaminated, old records are reviewed and the site is surveyed. If contamination is found that is connected to MED or AEC activities, cleanup is authorized under FUSRAP. Some sites with industrial contamination similar to that produced by MED or AEC activities have also been added to FUSRAP by Congress. The Energy and Water Development Appropriations Act for fiscal year 1998 (FY98) P.L. 105-62, signed into law on October 13, 1997, transferred responsibility for the administration and execution of the FUSRAP from the U.S. Department of Energy to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
