CHAPTER 1
Introduction
1-1. Purpose.
a. This Engineer Regulation (ER) prescribes policies governing water control
management activities as required by Federal Law and directives, including the establishment of
water control plans as appropriate, by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) at all
USACE-owned and USACE-operated reservoirs, locks, dams, and other water control projects in
which storage is operated and managed for authorized purposes such as flood control,
navigation, and other uses. This ER also applies to USACE actions in developing water control
plans and manuals or in operating non-USACE reservoirs, locks, dams, and other water control
projects in which storage is operated and managed for flood control and navigation and subject
to USACE direction pursuant to Section 7 of the Flood Control Act of 1944 or other law. This
policy may also provide guidance in other cases where water resources infrastructure is similarly
operated for flood control or navigation and subject to USACE direction through the
establishment of water control or operational plans. Guidance on how to implement the policies
contained herein is provided in other guidance documents, principally including but not limited
to Engineer Manual (EM) 1110-2-3600, Management of Water Control Systems, as well as other
guidance as applicable listed in Appendix A, while remaining subject to further updates in those
listed references.
b. With this revision, the content from two prior Engineer Regulations - ER 1110-2-240,
Water Control Management (1982) (33 C.F.R. § 222.5), and ER 1110-2-241, Use of Storage
Allocated for Flood Control and Navigation at Non-Corps Projects (1990) (33 C.F.R. § 208.11) -
has been updated and consolidated in this single ER. This version of ER 1110-2-240 supersedes
previous versions of both ER 1110-2-240 and ER 1110-2-241.
1-2. Applicability. This regulation applies to all HQUSACE elements, major subordinate
commands (MSC), districts, laboratories, and separate field operating activities (FOA) having
civil works responsibilities and activities related to or affecting water control management. This
regulation also applies to entities of non-USACE owned projects as defined in paragraph 1.
1-3. Distribution Statement. Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited.
1-4. References and Resources. Appendix A provides recommended references for USACE
policy and guidance, USACE resources, and partial lists of Federal Water Resource Management
and Environmental Laws; Appendix B provides a brief description of legal authorities
establishing responsibilities for USACE with regard to water control management, including
USACE-owned projects and non-USACE projects; Appendix C lists USACE-owned projects
subject to this regulation; Appendix D lists non-USACE owned projects that are subject to this
regulation; Appendix E lists the USACE Environmental Operating Principles; and Appendix F

1-5. Authorities for the USACE Water Control Management Role.
a. USACE is responsible for water control management at the reservoir projects it owns
and operates throughout the United States. These projects are referred to in this regulation as
USACE-owned projects. This responsibility is prescribed by laws initially authorizing
construction of specific projects and any referenced project documents, laws specific to projects
that are passed subsequent to construction, and the flood control acts and related legislation that
Congress has passed that apply generally to all USACE reservoirs. Modifications to project
operations are also permitted under laws passed post-construction.
USACE-owned projects are operated for authorized purposes such as flood control, hydropower,
irrigation, municipal and industrial water supply, recreation, low flow augmentation, water
quality, and fish and wildlife conservation. Operations for these authorized purposes may derive
from the original project authorization, from appropriate revisions within the discretionary
authority of the Chief of Engineers, or from modifications permitted under subsequent
congressional acts or in compliance with Federal laws relating to the operation of Federal
facilities. In addition, water control plans for projects owned and operated by USACE shall be
developed in concert with all basin interests which may be impacted by or influence project
regulation, and public involvement in the development or significant revision of water control
plans shall be provided for as required under this regulation. These considerations should be
addressed by a water control manual and reflected in an approved water control plan. Questions
requiring interpretation of authorizations will be referred to HQUSACE (Headquarters, U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers) CECW-CE (USACE, Civil Works - Construction and Engineering)
for guidance and resolution, , and should include review by District, Division, and HQUSACE
counsel.
b. USACE is also responsible for prescribing flood control and navigation regulations and
providing operational guidance for certain reservoir projects constructed or operated by other
federal, non-Federal, or private agencies; such projects are referred to in this regulation as non-
USACE projects. These projects include those subject to direction by USACE under Section 7 of
the Flood Control Act of 1944 (which requires USACE to prescribe regulations for the use of
storage allocated to navigation or flood control at reservoirs constructed wholly or in part with
Federal funds) and related legislation, and those authorized by special acts of Congress; those for
which licenses are issued by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission on the condition that
they be operated in accordance with USACE instructions; those covered by agreements between
the operating agency and USACE; and those that fall under the terms of general legislative and
administrative provisions. This regulation establishes the general policies that USACE shall
follow when developing water control management plans or operations for such projects.
For these non-USACE projects, the intent is to establish an understanding of the water control
plan and responsibilities for flood control and navigation between the project owner, operating
agencies, and USACE. Excepted non-USACE projects include those under the jurisdiction of
the International Boundary and Water Commission, United States and Mexico; and those under
the jurisdiction of the International Joint Commission, United States and Canada, and the
Columbia River Treaty.

CHAPTER 2
Water Control Management Policies
2-1. USACE Water Control Management Responsibilities. USACE water control
management responsibilities include the following:
a. Developing and maintaining water control plans, manuals, and agreements.
b. Implementing the water control plans/manuals of USACE projects.
c. Directing the establishment and implementation of water control plans for applicable
non-USACE projects.
d. Directing the establishment and implementation of flood control and navigation
regulations and operational activities at USACE and non-USACE projects.
e. Providing technical assistance to non-USACE project owners.
f. Participating with the United States Geological Survey (USGS), National Weather
Service (NWS), and other federal agencies in the operation and maintenance of the precipitation
(rainfall/snowpack) and river reporting network.
g. Coordinating with the USGS, NWS, and other federal agencies to collect, exchange,
and disseminate pertinent information to support the USACE water control mission.
h. Acquiring, quality controlling, maintaining, and disseminating water control data. (See
ER 1110-2-249 for guidance.)
i. Providing project information to USACE entities, stakeholders, and the public, as
required by this regulation.
j. Integrating the USACE Environmental Operating Principles in all water control
management activities with respect to authorized or approved purposes.
2-2. Objectives of USACE Water Control Management.
a. In general, the goal of water control management is to conform a project’s operation to
its authorizing legislation, to criteria defined in USACE reports prepared in the planning and
design of a particular project or system, and applicable congressional acts relating to the purpose
of federal facilities or systems. Water control plans shall be developed to accomplish this
objective and any operational changes to the plan shall be done in accordance with any
applicable review and approval requirements.
b. In some cases, a reservoir is authorized for a single purpose, and its operation and
management is carried out for attainment of that purpose. However, in most cases, a project will
be authorized for multiple purposes, and a water control plan will need to strike a balance among
the use of water storage for all such purposes, including but not limited to flood risk
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
2-2
management, municipal and industrial water supply, navigation, hydroelectric power, low flow
augmentation, water quality, fish and wildlife protection, ecosystem management, and
recreation. For multipurpose projects, operational priorities among these purposes under
particular conditions, such as drought or high water, may need to be defined.
c. The basic objectives of water control management can be summarized as follows:
(1) Operate in accordance with authorized purposes and applicable law.
(2) Maintain the structural and operational integrity of the project.
(3) Avoid risk to public health and safety, life, and property.
2-3. Policy Requirements for Water Control Management.
a. Water control management activities and documents, including water control manuals
and plans, shall comply with all applicable federal laws and regulations, including those laws
listed in Appendix A and B of this regulation, such as the Flood Control Act of 1944 and Water
Resource Development Acts of various years. The Corps’ Digest of Water Resources Policies
and Authorities may be consulted for more information.
b. Storage space in reservoirs shall be used for the purposes for which Congress has
authorized the project to be operated, including but not limited to flood control and navigation.
Within existing authority, operations may be adjusted to better address new or existing
authorized purposes. In all cases, water control manuals and water control plans should be
updated as necessary to reflect any authorized changes.
c. Appropriate attention shall be given to project safety in accordance with ER 1130-2-
530 to ensure that all water impounding structures are operated for the safety of users of the
facilities and the general public.
d. Water control plans shall be developed and executed to reflect water conservation as a
national priority. ER 1110-2-1941 requires water managers to determine whether improvement
can be made in water control management procedures during low-water periods within current
authorities. Therefore, all water control management plans shall have an associated drought
contingency plan.
e. USACE water control management activities shall be carried out in accordance with
the USACE role as an environmental steward. Thus, all USACE water control management
activities shall be guided by the USACE Environmental Principles in accordance with authorized
or approved purposes and comply with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) as
provided in ER 200-2-2 and other applicable environmental laws, executive orders, and
regulations. The Planning and Policy Division (HQUSACE (CECW-P) is the point of contact for
information on the USACE NEPA documents, NEPA oversight activities, review of other
agencies’ EIS and NEPA documents about legislation, regulations, national program proposals
or other major policy issues. Project operations in support of enhanced ecosystem sustainability
are encouraged when compatible with other project purposes.
ER 1110-2-240

f. Water control management documents and activities shall satisfy USACE quality
management requirements. The District Commander is the official responsible for compliance
with quality management procedures for water control management documents and activities
within district boundaries.
g. USACE shall take a systems approach in development of water control plans and in
development and implementation of regulatory strategies. Considerations include hydrologic and
ecological relationships within and among systems, comprehensive scope, multiple users, project
purposes, and economic impacts throughout the system. A systems approach shall be taken when
implementing operation plans.
h. USACE shall incorporate risk and uncertainty analysis in water control management
activities, including development of water control plans, analysis of proposed deviations (as
defined in Appendix F) and their potential consequences, and developing regulatory strategies.
It is also imperative to have public involvement in risk reduction strategies and be able to
effectively communicate the concept of risk. USACE guidance on risk and uncertainty analysis
includes ER 1105-2-101 and EM 1110-2-1619.
i. Water control management policies and procedures, including project regulation, shall
be evaluated for adaptation to climate change.
j. Effective public information programs shall be developed and maintained to inform and
educate the public regarding USACE water control management activities. (More information on
public information and public involvement is provided in Chapter 5 of this regulation.)
2-4. USACE Water Control Management Roles and Responsibilities.
a. HQUSACE (CECW-CE) water control management responsibilities include, but are
not limited to, the following:

CHAPTER 3
Water Control Manuals and Plans
3-1. Water Control Manuals.
a. In general, a water control manual defines rules or provides guidance for direction,
operation, and management of water storage at an individual project or system of projects in
addition to other pertinent information subject to criteria in this regulation including paragraph 1-
6. Water control manuals prepared in accordance with this regulation are required for all
reservoirs under the supervision of USACE, regardless of the purpose or size of the project.
Water control manuals are also required for lock and dam, reregulation (defined in Appendix F),
and major control structure projects that are physically directed, operated, or managed by
USACE. Where there are several projects in a drainage basin with interrelated purposes, a master
manual shall be prepared. ER 1110-2-8156 provides guidance on format and general content to
include in water control manuals. EM 1110-2-3600 provides detailed procedures for developing
much of that content.
b. The water control plan for a project shall comply with the objectives and provisions of
authorizing legislation and supporting reports for that project (see paragraph 1-5 for more detail).
For non-USACE projects, refer to Chapter 4 for additional requirements and Appendix B
paragraph B-3 for authorities.
c. Development, revision, and evaluation of water control manuals shall comply with
Corps policies, objectives, and principles of water control management and ecological
sustainability (to the extent allowed) including those described in Chapter 2 of this regulation.
Administrative updates to water control manuals which are not updates to the water control plan
should be performed not less than every ten years. These types of updates include points of
contact, phone numbers and other information that may be outdated. Also note that if the project
is being reviewed by the dam safety program, the project cannot receive a DSAC V (dam is
adequately safe) classification unless the water control manual has been updated within the last 5
years.
d. Preliminary water control manuals for projects directed, managed, or operated by
USACE shall contain regulation schedules in sufficient detail to establish the basic plan of initial
project regulation. As a general rule, preliminary manuals are to be superseded by more detailed
final manuals no more than one year after the project is placed in operation.
e. Water control manuals shall be prepared to meet initial requirements when storage in
the reservoir or water control projects begins. They shall be revised as necessary to conform to
changing requirements resulting from developments in the project area and downstream,
improvements in technology, improved understanding of ecological response and sustainability,
new legislation, and other relevant factors, provided such revisions comply with existing federal
regulations and established Corps policy.
f. Each water control manual shall contain a section on special operational or
management practices to be conducted during emergency situations, including droughts.
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
3-2
g. Division commanders (or their designees) are delegated the authority to approve water
control manuals.
h. Electronic copies and notification of the location of all water control manuals and
subsequent revisions shall be forwarded to HQUSACE (CECW-CE) for file purposes as soon as
practicable after completion, preferably within thirty days from the date of approval at the
division level.
3-2. Water Control Plans.
a. Water control plans are developed to ensure that operations of reservoirs, locks and
dams, re-regulation, and major control structures and interrelated systems conform to objectives
and specific provisions of authorizing legislation and applicable USACE reports, including any
applicable authorities established after project construction. For non-USACE projects see
Chapter 4 for additional requirements. Water control plans are prepared with appropriate
consideration of all federal laws that relate to the operation of federal facilities, as well as the
requirements of water control manuals provided in paragraph 3-1 of this regulation and any
application regulations. Thorough analysis shall be made as necessary to establish optimal water
control plans within prevailing constraints.
b. Water control plans developed for specific projects and reservoir systems will be
documented clearly in appropriate water control manuals. Water control manuals include
coordinated regulation schedules for project/system regulation and any additional provisions
required to collect, analyze, and disseminate data; prepare detailed operating instructions; assure
project safety; and carry out regulation of projects in an appropriate manner. ER 1110-2-8156
provides guidance on the required content of water control manuals.
c. The water control plan, including any allocation of storage it describes, shall be
designed to achieve all authorized purposes of the particular project, acting separately or in
combination with other projects in a system, to the extent practical, in light of applicable law and
existing conditions.
d. Water control plans shall be developed in consultation with all basin interests that are
impacted or could be impacted by or have an influence on project regulation. Close coordination
shall be maintained with all appropriate international, federal, state, regional, and local agencies
and stakeholders in the development and execution of water control plans.
e. A water control plan shall define normal operation. The definition of normal
operation should be broad enough to incorporate usual and approved operational flexibility, but
not so broad that any operation can be interpreted as normal. See Appendix F for the definition
of operation. An operation that is not in accordance with the approved water control plan or
manual or operations as prescribed by the approved water control plans or manual constitutes a
deviation (see Appendix F).
f. The water control plan shall account for changes in post-project downstream
conveyance efficiency and the need for periodic flushing flow releases.
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
3-3
g. Revisions and updates may incorporate upstream and downstream environmental flow
objectives when compatible in accordance with authorization and approved purposes.
Environmental flow may include both operational and structural modification of USACE
facilities to improve the ecological sustainability of riverine systems. Refer to ER 1110-2-8154
for additional guidance and information.
h. Interim water control plans during construction.
(1) Appropriate interim water control and contingency plans shall be established for use
from the date any storage may accumulate behind a partially completed dam until the project is
formally accepted for operation. Division commanders or their designees shall make certain that
construction-stage regulation plans are established and maintained in a timely and adequate
manner for projects under the supervision of USACE so that such projects operate as safely and
effectively as possible during the critical construction stage and any period that may elapse
before regular operating arrangements have been established.
(2) Interim water control plans should include consideration for protection of
construction operations; safety of downstream interests that might be jeopardized by failure of
partially completed embankments; requirements for minimizing adverse effects on partially
completed relocations or incomplete land acquisition; and the need for obtaining benefits from
project storage that can be safely achieved during the construction and early operation period.
i. Interim water control plans for dam safety.
(1) Interim Risk Reduction Measures Plan (IRRMP) for Dam Safety are developed,
prepared and implemented to reduce the probability and consequences of failure to the maximum
extent that it is reasonably practicable while long term remedial measures are pursued. ER 1110-
2-1156 provides guidance on the principles, measures, and approval process for the IRRMP.
When an interim risk reduction measure includes a change to the water control plan that does not
meet the guidelines for a deviation, then the change shall be processed as a temporary change to
the water control plan.
j. Water control plans should be reviewed no less than every 10 years and shall be revised
as needed in accordance with this regulation.
(1) The development of water control plans continues as new information becomes
available during project implementation. Water control plans will be revised as necessary to
conform with changing requirements resulting from developments in the project area and
downstream, improvements in technology, improved understanding of ecological response and
ecological sustainability, new legislation, reallocation of storage, new regional priorities,
changing environmental conditions and other relevant factors. At any time during project
implementation, it may be appropriate to revise the water control plan.
(2) To keep water control plans up to date, personnel from the water control office
responsible for regulation of each project shall periodically review the plan for each project.
These personnel will be professionally qualified in the technical areas involved and familiar with
comprehensive project objectives and other factors affecting water control management.
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
3-4
(3) Close coordination with basin interests and stakeholders, as described in d above, is
required throughout the water control plan revision process.
(4) Significant, recurrent or prolonged deviations from operations prescribed by an
approved water control plan may indicate a need for a formal change to operations prescribed by
an approved water control plan. The division commander should evaluate whether revision of
the approved water control plan is appropriate in such a case. Deviations that impact the
fulfillment of authorized purposes, that occur in three or more consecutive years, or that occur
more than three times within a five-year period must be fully coordinated with CECW-CE.
(5) Significant modifications to completed projects may require a feasibility study and
authorization by Congress with the associated requirements for compliance with all Federal laws
and directives. ER 1165-2-119 contains additional guidance on considerations for modifications
to multipurpose projects. Minor changes to authorized storage may require a study in
accordance with the Water Supply Act. Additional guidance for projects modifications with
respect to dam safety can be found in ER 1110-2-1156. All of these issues should be fully
coordinated with the Office of Counsel and CECW-CE.
k. Water control plan development, revisions, and updates shall consider USACE
Environmental Principles in accordance with authorization and approved purposes and comply
with NEPA, the Endangered Species Act (ESA), and related laws and regulations. Changes to a
water control plan that could impact the fulfillment of authorized purposes or could result in
operations which do not fall within existing authorities may require a feasibility or reallocation
study. Any change to the water control plan requires compliance with applicable environmental
requirements to address the extent of impacts and it is incumbent upon the USACE office with
responsibility for the project to make that decision on a case by case basis regardless of the
magnitude of the change. The review requirements for all water control manuals and plans
supported by NEPA or other environmental documentation are addressed in Engineering
Circular (EC) 1165-2-214.
3-3. Evacuation of Impounded Water.
a. Consistent with the authorized purposes of a project and affected interests in the project
area, any water impounded in the flood control space defined by the plan of regulation shall be
evacuated as rapidly as can be accomplished without causing downstream flows to exceed the
controlling rates and not releasing more than peak inflow or in accordance with reservoir
regulation schedules. That is, releases from reservoirs shall be restricted insofar as practicable to
quantities that, in conjunction with uncontrolled runoff downstream of the dam, will not cause
water levels to exceed the controlling maximum non-damaging stages currently in effect. This
implies making decisions based on the principle of water on the ground which is observed
precipitation or observed snowpack. Forecasted conditions may be used for planning future
operations, but releases should follow the water control operations plan based on observed
conditions within the watershed to the extent practicable.
In some areas of the United States, reservoir releases from Corps projects are made based on
stream flow forecasts due to melting of snowpack which is considered to be water on the ground.
Additionally some Corps projects are operated based on the prediction of ice jam flooding for
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
3-5
rivers and reservoirs. There are also Corps projects which make release decisions based on the
prediction of storm tides and hurricanes on water levels in coastal regions of the United States.
Guidance on the application of the principle of efficient and safe evacuation of flood storage
should be included in the project’s approved water control plan.
b. The plan of regulation may require releases to be completely curtailed in the interest of
flood control or safety of the project.
c. Nothing in the plan of regulation for flood control shall be construed to require or
allow dangerously rapid changes in magnitudes of releases. Releases shall be made in a manner
consistent with requirements for protecting the dam and reservoir from major damage during
passage of the maximum design flood for the project, as well as preventing downstream channel
bank sloughing. The maximum allowable rate of change for reservoir releases shall be specified
in the water control plan and documented in the water control manual.
d. All affected interests shall be alerted to possible hazards from project regulation
activities.
3-4. Deviation from the Approved Water Control Plan.
a. All water control manuals shall contain provisions authorizing the operating agency to
deviate temporarily from operations prescribed by the project’s approved water control plan
when necessary to alleviate critical situations or possibly to realize increased benefits during an
operation season without significantly affecting the fulfillment of the project’s authorized
purposes. A risk and uncertainty analysis shall be performed to determine potential
consequences of the deviation. These shall be evaluated to determine appropriate course of
action. Deviations generally fall into three categories: planned deviations, unplanned deviations,
and emergency deviations. Each division with is responsible for establishing guidance as
outlined in ER 1110-2-1400 with respect to water control management policy. This could
include establishing definitions for minor and major deviations and approval processes.
Regardless of the category of deviation it is imperative to adhere to the objectives of water
control management as outlined in paragraph 2-2 and the tenets of safe evacuation of impounded
water in paragraph 3-3. Any deviations must be consistent with the project authorization and
within existing authorities.
b. The division commander is responsible for reviewing and approving any proposed
deviations from the water control plan. This responsibility may be delegated at the MSC to the
responsible Senior Executive, or Chief, WM Division or Operational WM Division. Approval of
minor deviations may be delegated to the District Commander. Delegation of approval authority
must be documented in the guidance memorandum for the water management division. In all
cases, the delegated approving official must be a registered professional engineer with civil
engineering background. Deviations must also be coordinated with the Division water control
manager, the Division Dam Safety Officer, and the District Dam Safety Officer.
c. Planned Deviations. Each request for a planned deviation shall be evaluated on its own
merits. Examples include deviations for interim risk reduction measures and scheduled
construction, maintenance, or inspections activities. Planned deviations shall receive advance
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
3-6
approval from the division commander. The deviation request should be self-supporting and
self-explanatory. The following information shall be submitted in written form to the division
commander for consideration:
(1) Description of the proposed deviation, including purpose, proposed change from the
approved water control plan, duration, and other details about the deviation.
(2) The outcomes of adhering to the water control plan and of employing the proposed
deviation.
(3) Alternative deviation plans to include the application of risk and uncertainty in the
analysis and the consequences of each.
(4) Effects of the proposed deviation on project and system operation, and on other
project purposes such as flood control, hydropower, water quality, water supply, navigation,
recreation, or fish and wildlife.
(5) Review of the Potential Failure Mode Analysis (PFMA) for the dam and an analysis
of the effect of the deviation on the probability of failure and consequences associated with the
deviation.
(6) The potential flood threat with and without the proposed deviation.
(7) Current and predicted maximum storage, elevation, river stage, and other pertinent
information with and without the deviation.
(8) Review of the alternatives under provisions of pertinent laws and regulations,
including, but not limited to, NEPA and ESA, when applicable.
(8) A description of the coordination that has been done with affected entities, both
USACE and non-USACE, the effect on other local, regional, state, tribal, and federal agencies.
(10) Written comments from agencies, organizations, businesses, and individuals who
may be impacted by, or supportive of the proposed change in flows, including federal, state, and
local agencies; tribes; industries, organizations, and other stakeholders; and the public.
(11) Discussion of any other relevant issues.
(12) District commander, or designee, recommendation.
d. Unplanned Deviations. The need for unplanned deviations may arise due to unforeseen
conditions that do not allow sufficient time for a full analysis prior to the deviation. Each request
for an unplanned deviation should be analyzed on its own merits, with an evaluation of factors
such as potential failure mode and consequences, upstream watershed conditions, potential flood
threat, condition of the lake, possible alternative measures, and potential adverse effects on the
overall regulation of the project for the authorized purposes. Requests for and approval of
unplanned deviations may be transmitted by telephone or electronic media. A follow up
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
3-7
evaluation, including all of the requirements for planned deviations, shall be documented and
furnished to the Division commander as soon as practicable.
e. Emergency Deviations. Emergencies may require deviation from the approved water
control plan to mitigate an imminent threat to public health and safety, property, or the
environment. Examples include dam safety issues, drowning and other accidents, failure of
operation facilities, oil or chemical spills and drainage, bacterial contamination, harmful algal
blooms, water or sewage treatment plant failures, and fish kills. Such situations require a rapid
response which does not allow sufficient time for a full analysis of the deviation. Evaluation of
emergency deviations may be based on available information with consideration of the potential
for transfer of risk. Necessary actions under emergency conditions may be initiated by the
District commander. Requests for and approval of emergency deviations may be transmitted by
telephone or electronic media. A follow up evaluation, including all of the requirements for
planned deviations, shall be documented and furnished to the Division commander as soon as
practicable.
f. Deviations may require separate NEPA documentation, if they involve changes in
environmental impacts which were not considered in the existing NEPA documentation for the
project, water control plan, or water control manual.
g. The review and approval process for a deviation request shall comply with USACE
quality management requirements as described in EC 1165-2-214. Examples of measures to
ensure such compliance include the following:
(1) Review at the district level of the technical, legal, environmental, real estate, and
operations aspects of the request, as appropriate.
(2) District quality review measures such as District Quality Control (DQC), quality
control certification, and environmental decision documentation, as appropriate.
(3) Division quality assurance and policy compliance review, followed by approval or
disapproval of the deviation request.
h. Significant, recurrent or prolonged deviations from operations prescribed by an
approved water control plan may indicate a need for a formal change to operations prescribed by
an approved water control plan. The division commander should evaluate whether revision of
the approved water control plan is appropriate in such a case. Deviations that impact the
fulfillment of authorized purposes, that occur in three or more consecutive years, or that occur
more than three times within a five-year period must be fully coordinated with CECW-CE.

CHAPTER 4
USACE Regulation of Non-USACE Projects
4-1. Authority for and Responsibilities Pertaining to Regulation of Non-USACE Projects.
a. Under Section 7 of the Flood Control Act of 1944 and subsequent related legislation,
USACE is responsible for providing a water control plan for the regulation of storage managed
and operated for flood control or navigation at all reservoirs constructed wholly or in part with
federal funds as a condition of a license, permit, or legislation. Carrying out this responsibility
requires USACE to consult with non-USACE project owners and operators during the planning,
design, construction phases and throughout the life of the project; develop the water control plan
and agreement with the cooperation of the project owner; facilitate public notification of the
water control plan and related information; consider requests from the project owner for
deviation from the plan of regulation; revise the water control plan when necessary; and fulfill
limited reporting requirements for each project. (USACE may also provide a water control
manual for a non-USACE project, but only if required by the project agreement and funded by
the project owner.) Further information about these activities is provided in this chapter with an
explanation of authorities in Appendix B.
b. This chapter provides specific requirements applicable only to USACE regulation of
storage managed and operated for flood control and navigation purposes in non-USACE
reservoirs, locks, dams, and other water control projects. The policies provided herein pertain
only to the use of that storage, if that is the intent between USACE and the project owner. Note
some guidance in Chapter 3 is generally applicable to non-USACE projects. In the event a
requirement provided in Chapter 3 of this regulation conflicts with a requirement listed in this
chapter, the conflict should be resolved in favor of the requirement in this chapter. Note this ER
may also be applicable to dam and reservoir projects operated under provisions of future
legislative acts wherein the Secretary of the Army is directed to prescribe rules and regulations in
the interest of flood control and navigation. Under Section 7 of the 1944 Flood Control Act, the
Secretary of the Army is directed to prescribe these regulations for flood control and navigation;
and the Chief of Engineers, USACE, is generally designated as the duly authorized
representative of the Secretary of the Army to exercise authority granted in statute or
authorization legislation for water control management activities. This Regulation will normally
be implemented by letters of understanding between USACE (exercising regulatory authority)
and the project owner and will incorporate the provisions of such letters of understanding prior to
the time construction renders the project capable of significant impoundment of water. A water
control agreement signed by both parties will follow when deliberate impoundment first begins
or at such time as the responsibilities of any USACE-owned projects may be transferred to
another entity. Promulgation of this Regulation for a given project will occur at such time as the
name of the project appears in the Federal Register. When agreement on a water control plan
cannot be reached between USACE and the project owner after coordination with all interested
parties, the project name will be entered in the Federal Register and the USACE plan will be the
official water control plan until such time as differences can be resolved.

4-2. Water Control Plans and Agreements for Non-USACE Projects. In addition to the general
principles provided in Chapters 2 and 3 of this ER, water control plans for non-USACE projects
are subject to the specific policies described in paragraphs 4-2a through 4-2p.
a. During the planning and design phases, the project owner should consult with USACE
regarding the quantity of space to reserve in the reservoir for flood control or navigation
purposes, use of the space, and other requirements of the license, permit, or conditions of the
pertinent law.
b. Prior to project completion, water control managers from the responsible USACE
district shall visit the project and the area it serves to become familiar with the water control
facilities and to ensure sound formulation of the water control plan. Development of the water
control manual shall be coordinated with the project owner to obtain necessary information, and
to ensure compatibility with other project purposes and with surcharge regulation.
c. District and division engineers shall initiate discussions at the regional level with the
project owners and operating agencies to clarify conditions governing allocations for storage
capacity for the project purposes and regulation.
d. The district engineer shall assemble background information on the project and
conditions requiring flood control or navigation services, along with other relevant factors, and
will incorporate this information in a preliminary information report. The preliminary
information report shall be submitted to the division commander or designee for review and
approval. Normally, the agency having jurisdiction over the particular project is expected to
furnish information on project features, the basis for storage allocations, and any other available
data relevant to the studies. USACE supplements this information as required.
e. Generally, USACE personnel at the district level will conduct the studies required to
develop reservoir regulation schedules and plans, in which case the studies will be reviewed by
division personnel. Assistance from the project operating agency and others concerned will be
solicited.
f. Regulations developed for use of storage managed and operated to meet flood control
or navigation purposes should be predicated on a mutual understanding between the Corps and
the operating agency concerning the conditions of the allocations in order to assure reasonable
achievement of the basic objectives intended. In the event Corps field representatives and the
operating agency are unable to reach necessary agreements after all reasonable possibilities have
been explored, appropriate background explanations and recommendations shall be submitted to
HQUSACE for consideration and issue resolution.
g. District commanders or their designees are responsible for developing water control
plans necessary to meet the requirements of Section 7 of the 1944 Flood Control Act and other
authorizing legislation for all projects located within their areas.
h. Water control plans applicable to projects already completed and being operated by
other entities, including projects built by USACE and turned over to others for operation, shall
be developed and processed as soon as possible.
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
4-3
i. Water control plans developed for non-USACE projects shall contain special
instructions to the dam tenders or reservoir manager on data collection, procedures for reporting
to federal authorities, and procedures to be followed in the event of a communication outage
under emergency conditions.
j. Project regulations shall be written to permit operation of the project by the operating
agency without interpretations of the regulations by the division or district commander or their
designees during operating periods. However, the water control plan should acknowledge the
role of the division or district commander as the Chief of Engineers' designee for issuing special
instructions.
k. An agreement shall be prepared between USACE and the project owner specifying
USACE and owner responsibilities for operating the project and interpreting the plan of
regulation. When necessary agreements are reached at the district level and regulations
developed in accordance with this regulation, they shall be submitted to the division commander
or designee for review, approval, and forwarding to HQUSACE for processing.
l. Division commanders (or their designees) are designated as the USACE representative
on all letters of understanding, water control agreements, and other documents that may become
part of prescribed regulations for projects located in their respective divisions and that are subject
to the provisions of this regulation.
m. USACE shall revise the water control plan and all associated documents as necessary
to reflect changed conditions affecting flood control and navigation, such as reallocation of
reservoir storage space due to sedimentation or transfer of storage space to another project.
(1) Water control managers from the district office shall participate as team members in
any water control plan revisions.
(2) Water control plan revision processes, procedures, and products shall meet the
requirements stated in Chapters 2 and 3, including requirements for environmental investigations
and quality control/quality assurance. Additionally the revised water control plan for non-
USACE projects must be in compliance with any other applicable federal laws, FERC (Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission) license, and any operating agreements related to that project.
(3) Revision of the water control plan, water control agreement, water control diagram, or
release schedule requires review by the district water control office and approval by the division
commander or designee.
(4) Each such revision shall be effective upon the date specified in the approval.
(5) The original (signed document) water control agreement shall be kept on file in the
appropriate division or district office.
n. USACE shall prepare a water control diagram (graphical) for each project having
variable space reservation for flood control or navigation during the year (variable seasonal
storage, joint-use space, or other guide curve designation). Reservoir inflow conditions shall be
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
4-4
included on the diagrams when appropriate. Concise notes shall be included on the diagrams
prescribing the use of storage space in terms of release schedules, runoff, non-damaging or other
controlling flow rates downstream of the dam site, and other major factors as appropriate. A
water control release schedule shall be prepared in tabular form for projects that do not have
variable space reservation for flood control or navigation. The water control diagram or release
schedule shall be signed by a duly authorized representative of the Chief of Engineers, the
project owner, and the designated operating agency, and shall serve as the basis for carrying out
operation and management of water storage at the project. Each diagram or schedule shall
contain a reference to this regulation.
o. When deemed necessary by USACE, information given on the water control diagram
or release schedule shall be supplemented by appropriate text to assure mutual understanding on
certain details or other important aspects of the water control plan not covered in this regulation,
on the water control diagram, or in the release schedule. This material will include clarification
of any aspects that might otherwise result in unsatisfactory project performance in the interest of
flood control or navigation.
p. Supplementation of the agreement shall be necessary for each project where USACE
exercises the discretionary authority to prescribe the flood control regulation on a day-to-day
(real-time) basis. The agreement shall include delegation of the responsibility. The document
should also cite, as appropriate, Section 7 of the 1944 Flood Control Act, the Federal Power Act,
or other Congressional legislation authorizing construction or directing the purpose or regulation
of the project.
4-3. Policies Governing USACE Regulation of Non-USACE Projects. In addition to the
general principles and federal laws provided in Chapters 2 and 3, USACE water control
management activities for non-USACE projects are subject to the policies described in
paragraphs 4-3a through 4-3l.
a. If the project owner is responsible for implementation of the water control plan,
USACE will provide consultation and assistance when appropriate.
b. If specified in the project agreement between the project owner and USACE, USACE
may prescribe the continuing operation and management of flood control storage space for any
project subject to this regulation on a real-time basis. When this is the case, the project owner
shall consult with and provide assistance to the extent possible to the dam tender or other person
responsible for the routine operation and maintenance activities of a dam and its appurtenant
structures. Special requests by the project owner or appropriate operating entity are preferred
before USACE offers advice on real-time operation and management approaches during
surcharge storage (which results when the total storage space reserved for flood control is
exceeded).
c. The project owner shall provide instrumentation in the vicinity of the dam and
communication equipment necessary to record and transmit hydro-meteorological and reservoir
data to all appropriate federal authorities on a real-time basis, unless such data recording and
transmission are otherwise provided for in the conditions of the license or permit. For those
projects where the owner retains responsibility for real-time implementation of the water control
plan, the owner shall also provide or arrange for the measurement and reporting of hydro-
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
4-5
meteorological conditions required within and adjacent to the watershed and downstream of the
dam sufficient to regulate the project for flood control or navigation in an efficient manner.
When data collection stations outside the immediate vicinity of the dam are required, and funds
for installation, observation, and maintenance are not available from other sources, USACE may
agree to share the costs for such stations with the project owner. Decisions on cost sharing will
take into account the authority for use of funds, the availability of funds, and urgency of data
needs.
d. The project owner shall monitor current reservoir and hydro-meteorological conditions
in and adjacent to the watershed and downstream of the dam, as necessary. This and any other
pertinent information shall be reported to USACE on a timely basis, in accordance with standing
instructions to the dam tenders or other means requested by USACE.
e. In all cases where the project owner retains responsibility for real-time implementation
of the water control plan, the owner shall make current determinations of reservoir inflow; flood
control storage used; and, scheduled releases. The owner shall also determine storage space and
releases required to comply with the water control plan prescribed by USACE. The owner shall
report this information on a timely basis as requested by USACE.
f. Responsibility for compliance with this and other applicable regulations rests with the
operating agency. The division or district commander (or their designees) of the area in which
the project is located shall be kept informed regarding project operations to verify compliance.
g. The project owner is responsible for the safety of the dam and appurtenant facilities
and for regulation/operation of the project during surcharge storage. Emphasis upon the safety of
the dam is especially important in the event surcharge storage is used, which results when the
total storage space reserved for flood control is exceeded. Any assistance provided by USACE
concerning surcharge regulation/operation is to be used at the discretion of the project owner,
and does not relieve the owner of the responsibility for safety of the project. Any dam safety
interim risk reduction measures that alter the water control plan requires that a revision (either
permanent or interim) of the plan be developed in accordance with Chapters 2, 3, and 4.
h. Advance approval by USACE is required prior to any deviation from the plan of
regulation prescribed or approved by USACE in the interest of flood control or navigation,
except in emergency situations described in paragraph 4-4i. Requests for deviation from the
approved water control plan shall comply with the requirements of paragraph 3-4. It is
imperative that the objectives of water control management as outlined in paragraph 2-2 and the
tenets of safe evacuation of impounded water in paragraph 3-3 be considered when evaluation
the deviation. Additionally deviations from the water control plan for non-USACE projects must
be in compliance with project authorization and thus operated within existing authorities. This
includes compliance with FERC licenses and any operating agreements.
i. The project owner or USACE may initiate a temporary deviation from the water control
plan when deemed necessary for emergency reasons to mitigate an imminent threat to public
health and safety, property, or the environment. Documentation and approval of such deviations
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
4-6
shall occur as described in paragraph 3-4e. Such actions shall be reported as soon as practicable.
Actions shall be confirmed in writing to USACE and shall include a follow up evaluation of the
action. Upon refusal of the project owner to comply with deviations initiated by USACE, the
division commander or designee will send a letter to the project owner describing the reason for
the regulations prescribed, events that have transpired, and notification that the project owner is
in violation of the federal code of regulations
4-4. Periodic Inspection Reports of Non-USACE Facilities. Project owners shall inform
USACE of any deficiencies found during inspections of non-USACE facilities that may impact
their structural stability, safety, or operational adequacy.
4-5. Notification of the General Public and Other Stakeholders. USACE, other interested
federal and state agencies, and the project owner will jointly sponsor public involvement and
notification activities consistent with the requirements of Chapter 5 of this regulation.
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
5-1
CHAPTER 5
Communication and Coordination
5-1. Required Coordination and Communication.
a. It is imperative that communication and coordination on water control management
issues occur up and down the chain of command, among managers of interrelated projects in the
same system, between non-USACE project owners/operators and USACE, between USACE and
stakeholders, and with the general public.
b. District and division commanders (or their designees) are responsible for notifying
higher USACE authorities of project conditions, compliance issues, and future plans through
regularly scheduled reports.
c. USACE entities at all levels are encouraged to communicate and coordinate with other
entities up and down the chain of command regarding water control management issues.
Pertinent contact information shall be kept available and up to date. EM 1110-2-3600 provides
guidelines for coordination meetings, briefings, schedule releases, and other communication and
coordination methods.
d. The dissemination and exchange of information are critical components of the USACE
water control management mission.
(1) USACE is committed to keeping stakeholders and the general public informed of
water control management activities. To the extent practicable and reasonable, and taking into
consideration project security, water control managers are encouraged to provide project and
gage data to other agencies, post data on district water control management Web pages, and
provide data and other information to the public by way of interactive voice systems, e-mail, fax,
telephone, or other appropriate means of communication.
(2) District offices are encouraged to provide assistance to communities and individuals
regarding the impact of forecast floods, such as providing approximate water surface elevations
at locations upstream and downstream of NWS forecast points. USACE water control managers
are responsible for announcing anticipated significant changes in reservoir release rates for
projects under their jurisdiction to the general public as far in advance as possible. Coordinating
public communications with the NWS is particularly important as NWS is the lead federal
agency regarding flood forecasting and flood warning.
(3) Public notice shall be given in the event that significant problems that may pose a risk
to life or property are anticipated or experienced in accordance with the Flood Emergency Plan.
e. Water control manuals will be reviewed by the information proponent for the
originating office to determine and apply the appropriate distribution statements and markings to
the water control manual in accordance with current policy and legal requirements for release of
information.
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
5-2
5-2. Public Participation in Water Control Plan Development and Revision. Water control
plans will be developed in concert with all basin interests which are or could be impacted by or
have an influence on project regulation. Close coordination will be maintained with all
appropriate international, Federal, State, regional and local agencies in the development and
execution of water control plans. Effective public information programs will be developed and
maintained so as to inform and educate the public regarding Corps of Engineers water control
management activities. Public involvement in the development or significant revision of water
control plans, as well as certain deviations from those water control plans, is required under this
regulation. The USACE office with responsibility for the water control project shall make the
determination if this requirement is needed with input from the chain of command if necessary.
In addition, public involvement shall be provided for as necessary in accordance with applicable
provisions of NEPA, the Water Resources Development Act (WRDA) of 1990, and other federal
regulations.
a. Public participation in water control plan development and revisions promotes open
communication between USACE and the public, and leads to better analysis and decision
making. Public, federal, tribal, state, and local community involvement is a critical and
continuing part of water control plan development and revision.
b. Conditions that require public involvement and public meetings include development
of a new water control manual that includes a water control plan, or a revision or update of a
water control manual that changes the water control plan in a way that impacts the public or
changes the documented impact of the project. Another condition that could require public
participation is a proposed deviations from the water control plan. This should be considered in
the context of project authorization and scope of impact to the public. It should also be noted
that revisions to water control manuals that are administrative or informational in nature and that
do not change the water control plan do not require public meetings. The exception would be
those dams that require an IRRMP. Refer to ER 1110-2-1156 (Chapter 7) for guidance.
c. Documentation shall be prepared that explains the recommended water control plan or
change or deviation and provides technical information explaining the basis for the
recommendation. It should include a description of the plan’s impacts (both monetary and
nonmonetary) for various purposes, and comparisons with alternative plans or changes and their
effects, if applicable. The plan or manual shall be prepared only after the public involvement
process associated with its development or change is complete.
d. Public involvement requires access to information and adequate notice of public
hearings.
(1) For those conditions requiring public involvement, USACE shall provide information
to the public concerning proposed water control management decisions at least thirty days in
advance of a public meeting.
(2) The initial meeting shall be conducted as early as practical but no later than the time
the project first becomes operational.
ER
1110-2-240
30May16
(3) Notice
of
the initial public meeting shall be published once a week for four
consecutive weeks in one or more newspapers
of
general circulation published in each county
covered
by
the water control plan. Such notice shall also
be
used when appropriate to inform the
public
of
modifications
in
the water control plan, and to identify where the public can access the
information produced and distributed under the requirements
of
paragraph 5-2b.
If
no newspaper
is published
in
a county, the notice shall be published
in
one or more newspapers
of
general
circulation within that county. For the purposes
of
this section, a newspaper is one qualified to
publish public notices under applicable state law.
(4) In addition to notices published
in
one or more newspapers, notice should be posted
on appropriate publicly accessible
USACE Web sites, and public service announcements about
public meetings shall be distributed to all radio and television stations that serve viewers or
listeners potentially affected by the water control plan.
5-3. Reporting Policies.
a.
Division commanders or their designees shall report to HQUSACE on significant
events and activities
in
the division
in
compliance with appropriate USACE procedures and
methods.
b.
Reports are submitted electronically and disseminated according to appropriate district
or division procedures, taking into consideration client needs and security precautions.
c.
In addition to required reports, division commanders or their designees shall keep the
Office
of
the Chief
of
Engineers informed
of
any unusual problems or activities associated with
water control management that impact the responsibilities
of
the
Chief
of
Engineers.

APPENDIX B
Authorities
B-1. General.
a. The involvement of the federal government in flood risk reduction dates to the early
1870s with efforts to alleviate flooding along the Mississippi River. In 1874, Congress
appropriated federal funds for relief work and established the Mississippi River Commission.
This legislation was justified by the need to protect interstate navigation to accommodate
concerns about the constitutionality of the role of the federal government in local flood control.
Nevertheless, despite the construction of levees, severe flooding continued to occur along the
lower Mississippi in the ensuing decades. On March 1, 1917, Congress passed the Flood Control
Act (FCA) of 1917, which authorized federal expenditures for existing flood control plans on the
Mississippi River and the Sacramento River. The FCA of 1917 stipulated that local interests
must contribute at least one-half of the cost for the construction and repair of the levees and must
provide rights-of-way free to the federal government. Federal support of flood control and
navigation improvement in the lower Mississippi basin continued with the FCA of 1928.
b. Section 3 of the Flood Control Act of 1936 (33 U.S.C. 701a), substantially broadened
the role of the federal government in flood control work, expressing the sense of Congress that
flood control is a proper federal activity, and that improvements for flood control purposes are in
the interest of the general welfare of the public. The act expressed the sense of Congress that
federal involvement in flood control activities is justified "if the benefits to whomsoever they
may accrue are in excess of the estimated costs, and if the lives and social security of the people
are otherwise adversely affected".
B-2. USACE-Owned Projects.
a. The authority for water control operations for USACE-owned and USACE-operated
reservoir projects is contained in authorization acts and supported by referenced project
documents. These public laws generally authorize the project for construction and operation for
certain purposes with details being outlined in referenced project documents, which USACE
carries out, including through the development of water control plans and appropriate revisions
thereto under the discretionary authority of the Chief of Engineers. Subsequent federal
legislation may also affect project operations.
B-3. Non-USACE Projects.
a. Section 7 of the Flood Control Act of 1944 (33 U.S.C. 709). This directs the Secretary
of the Army to prescribe regulations for flood control and navigation in the following manner:
"Hereafter, it shall be the duty of the Secretary of War to prescribe regulations
for the use of storage allocated for flood control or navigation at all reservoirs
constructed wholly or in part with Federal funds provided on the basis of such
purposes, and the operation of any such project shall be in accordance with such
regulations: Provided, that this section shall not apply to the Tennessee Valley
Authority, except that in case of danger from floods on the Lower Ohio and
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
B-2
Mississippi Rivers the Tennessee Valley Authority is directed to regulate the
release of water from the Tennessee River into the Ohio River in accordance
with such instructions as may be issued by the War Department."
b. Section 9 of Public Law 83-436 (68 Stat. 303). This law provides for the development
of the Coosa River, Alabama and Georgia, and directs the Secretary of the Army to prescribe
rules and regulations for project operation in the interest of flood control and navigation as
follows:
"The operation and maintenance of the dams shall be subject to reasonable rules
and regulations of the Secretary of the Army in the interest of flood control and
navigation."
c. Section 9(b) of the Reclamation Project Act of 1939 (53 Stat. 1189, 43 U.S.C.
485h(b)). This law authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to allocate costs of new projects or
supplemental works to flood control or navigation. Such allocations shall be in consultation with
the Chief of Engineers and the Secretary of the Army, and any necessary investigations or
studies may be performed under a cooperative agreement with the Secretary of the Army. The
law also provides that in the event of such an allocation, the Secretary of the Interior shall
operate the project for purposes of flood control or navigation, to the extent justified by the
allocation.
d. The Federal Power Act, approved 10 June 1920, as amended (41 Stat. 1063, 16 U.S.C.
791 et seq.). This law established the Federal Power Commission, now called the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC), with authority to issue licenses for constructing, operating, and
maintaining dams or other project works for the development of navigation, for use of water
power, and for other beneficial public uses in any streams over which Congress has jurisdiction.
The Chief of Engineers is called upon for advice and assistance as needed in formulating
reservoir regulation requirements as follows:
(1) Responsibilities of the Secretary of the Army and the Chief of Engineers in FERC
licensing actions are set forth in the Federal Power Act. The Commission may further stipulate as
a licensing condition that a licensee enter into an agreement with the Department of the Army
providing for operation of the project during flood, in accordance with rules and regulations
prescribed by the Secretary of the Army.
(2) Section 4(e) of the Federal Power Act requires approval by the Chief of Engineers
and the Secretary of the Army of plans of dams or other structures affecting the navigable
capacity of any navigable waters of the United States, prior to issuance of a license by the
Commission as follows:
"The Commission is hereby authorized and empowered to issue licenses to
citizen... for the purpose of constructing, operating and maintaining dams, water
conduits, reservoirs, powerhouses, transmission lines, or other project works
necessary or convenient for the development and improvement of navigation and
for the development, transmission, and utilization of par across, along, from or in
any of the streams or other bodies of water over which Congress has jurisdiction
.. Provided further, that no license affecting the navigable capacity of any
navigable waters of the United States shall be issued until the plans of the dam or
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
B-3
other structures affecting navigation have been approved by the Chief of
Engineers and the Secretary of the Army."
(3) Sections 10(a) and 10(c) of the Federal Power Act specify conditions of project
licenses including the following:
Section 10(a): "That the project adopted . . . shall be such as in the judgment of
the Commission will be best adapted to a comprehensive plan for improving or
developing a waterway or waterways for the use or benefit of interstate or foreign
commerce, for the improvement and utilization of waterpower development, and
for other beneficial public uses . . . ."
Section 10(c): "That the licensee shall… so maintain and operate said works as
not to impair navigation, and shall conform to such rules and regulations as the
Commission may from time to time prescribe for the protection of life, health, and
property…"
(4) Section 18 of the Federal Power Act directs that the operation of any navigation
facilities built under the provision of that act be controlled by rules and regulations prescribed by
the Secretary of the Army as follows:
"The operation of any navigation facilities which many be constructed as part of
or in connection with any dam or diversion structure built under the provisions of
this Act, whether at the expense of a licensee hereunder or of the United States,
shall at all times be controlled by such reasonable rules and regulations in the
interest of navigation; including the control of the pool caused by such dam or
diversion structure as may be made from time to time by the Secretary of the
Army."
(5) Federal Power Commission Order No. 540 issued 31 October 1975 and published 7
November 1975 (40 FR 51998), amending Section 2.9 of the Commission's General Policy and
Interpretations prescribed Standardized Conditions (Forms) for Inclusion in Preliminary Permits
and Licenses Issued Under Part I of the Federal Power Act. As an example, Article 12 of
Standard Form L-3, titled: "Terms and Conditions of License for Constructed Major Projects
Affecting Navigable Waters of the United States", sets forth the Commission's interpretation of
appropriate sections of the Act, which deal with navigation aspects, and attendant responsibilities
of the Secretary of the Army in licensing actions as follows:
"The United States specifically retains and safeguards to the right to use water in
such amount, to be determined by the Secretary of the Army, as may be necessary
for the purposes of navigation on the navigable waterway affected; and the
operations of the Licensee, so far as they affect the use, storage and discharge
from storage of waters affected by the license, shall at all times be controlled by
such reasonable rules and regulations as the Secretary of the Army may prescribe
in the interest of navigation, and as the Commission may prescribe for the
protection of life, health, and property, . . . and the Licensee shall release water
from the project reservoir at such rate . . . as the Secretary of the Army may
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
B-4
prescribe in the interest of navigation, or as the Commission may prescribe for
the other purposes hereinbefore mentioned."
e. Section 3 of the Flood Control Act of 1936 (33 U.S.C. 701). Projects constructed by
USACE for local flood protection purposes are subject to conditions of local cooperation as
provided in Section 3 of the Flood Control Act approved 22 June 1936, as amended. One of
those conditions is that a responsible local agency will maintain and operate all works after
completion in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Army. Most such
projects consist mainly of levees and floodwalls with appurtenant drainage structures. A
regulation for operation and maintenance of these projects has been prescribed by the Secretary
of the Army in 33 CFR 208.10. When a reservoir is included in such a project, it may be
appropriate to apply 33 CFR 208.10 in establishing regulations for operation, without requiring
their publication in the Federal Register. For example, if the reservoir controls a small drainage
area, has an uncontrolled flood control outlet with automatic operation, or contains less than
12,500 acre-feet of flood control or navigation storage, 33 CFR 208.10 may be applicable.
However, this regulation is applicable in prescribing flood control regulations for the individual
reservoir if the project has a gated flood control outlet by which the local agency can regulate
floods.
B-4. Publication in Federal Register.
a. Pertinent information on projects for which regulations are prescribed under Section 7
of the 1944 Flood Control Act (33 U.S.C. 709), the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C. 791 et seq.),
and Section 9 of Public Law 83-436 (68 Stat. 303) is published in the Federal Register in
accordance with paragraph 1-6b of this regulation. Publication in the Federal Register establishes
the fact and the date of promulgation of the regulation plan of a project.

USACE Environmental Operating Principles
E-1 Environmental Operating Principles.
USACE has reaffirmed its commitment to the environment by formalizing a set of
"Environmental Operating Principles" applicable to all its decision-making and programs.
The Environmental Operating Principles relate to the human environment and apply to all
aspects of business and operations. They apply across Military Programs, Civil Works, Research
and Development, and across the Corps. The Principles require a recognition and acceptance of
individual responsibility from senior leaders to the newest team members. Re-committing to
these principles and environmental stewardship will lead to more efficient and effective
solutions, and will enable the Corps of Engineers to further leverage resources through
collaboration. This is essential for successful integrated resources management, restoration of the
environment and sustainable and energy efficient approaches to all Corps of Engineers mission
areas. It is also an essential component of the Corps of Engineers' risk management approach in
decision making, allowing the organization to offset uncertainty by building flexibility into the
management and construction of infrastructure. These include:
a. Foster sustainability as a way of life throughout the organization.
b. Proactively consider environmental consequences of all Corps activities and act
accordingly.
c. Create mutually supporting economic and environmentally sustainable solutions.
d. Continue to meet our corporate responsibility and accountability under the law for
activities undertaken by the Corps, which may impact human and natural
environments.
e. Consider the environment in employing a risk management and systems approach
throughout the life cycles of projects and programs.
f. Leverage scientific, economic and social knowledge to understand the environmental
context and effects of Corps actions in a collaborative manner.
g. Employ an open, transparent process that respects views of individuals and groups
interested in Corps activities

APPENDIX F
Terms and Abbreviations
F.1 Terms.
Storage. The retention of water or delay of runoff either by planned operation, as in a reservoir,
or by temporary filling of overflow areas, as in the progression of a flood wave through a natural
stream channel. Definitions of specific types of storage that may be included in USACE
reservoirs are:
a. Active storage. The volume of the reservoir that is available for authorized purposes
such as power generation, irrigation, flood control, water supply, etc. The bottom elevation is the
minimum operating level or the top of inactive storage (where present).
b. Dead storage. The storage that lies below the invert of the lowest outlet and that,
therefore, cannot readily be withdrawn from the reservoir.
c. Flood surcharge. The storage volume that may be available between the top of the
active storage and the design water level.
d. Inactive storage. The storage volume (if any) of a reservoir between the crest of the
invert of the lowest outlet and the minimum operating level.
e. Live storage. The sum of the active-and the inactive storage (if any).
f. Reservoir capacity. The sum of the dead and live storage of the reservoir.
Continuity of Operations (COOP). Emergency relocation and reconstitution of a USACE
activity as a result of either a natural or a man-made (caused) disaster.
Corps Water Management System (CWMS). An integrated system of hardware, software, and
communication resources supporting the USACE real-time water control mission.
Design Water Level. The maximum water elevation including flood surcharge that a dam is
designed to withstand.
Deviation. An operation that departs from the approved water control plan or manual or
operations prescribed by the approved water control plans or manual constitutes a deviation.
This could include a planned, unplanned, or emergency deviation. An allowable deviations is a
risk-informed and temporary operation consistent with the project authorization, all other
applicable laws and policies, and the objectives for system and project operations. A deviation
may be made in order to respond to unforeseen circumstances, alleviate temporary problems or
realize opportunities to increase project benefits (both direct and incidental) on a temporary
basis.
Drought. A deficiency of moisture or lack of storage that results in adverse impacts on people,
animals, or vegetation over a sizeable area. Determination of drought conditions, in relation to
ER 1110-2-240
30 May 16
F-2
the conditions of streamflow, is usually based on the most critically severe sequence of low-
water conditions as determined from the historical period of record of streamflow for a particular
river system. Inasmuch as the period of record of streamflow data varies widely between river
systems, this criterion does not yield a consistent measure of drought severity. Hydrologic low-
flow analysis utilizing historical data may be necessary to yield consistent probabilities of low-
water sequences.
Environmental Flow. The quality, quantity, and timing of water flows required to maintain the
components, functions, processes, and resilience of aquatic ecosystems.
Guide Curve. The dividing line between part of the reservoir pool that is designated as flood
control and that part that is designated as conservation.
Letter of Understanding. As used herein, a statement that consummates this regulation for any
given project and defines the general provisions or conditions of the local sponsor or owner,
cooperation agreed to in the authorizing legislative document, and the requirements for
compliance with Section 7 of the Flood Control Act of 1944, the Federal Power Act, or other
special act of Congress. The letter of understanding will be signed by a duly authorized
representative of the Chief of Engineers and the project owner. A “field working agreement”
may be substituted for a letter of understanding, provided that the specified minimum
requirements of the latter, as stated above, are met.
Master Water Control Manual. A water control manual prepared for a system of projects rather
than an individual project. Operation. The physical manipulation of spillway gates, outlet works,
or instrumentation associated with projects. Operations prescribed by a water control plan shall
include the operational flexibility necessary to accomplish the authorized purposes of the project
under foreseeable conditions, according to the approved water control plan or manual. The
approved water control plan or manual is a result of intensive study and includes the hydrologic,
hydraulic, and reservoir regulation analyses of the historical period of record. These analyses
cover a wide range of hydrologic conditions. The water control plan which could include guide
curves, physical constraints, and operational constraints is tested against this range of conditions.
The resulting simulated operations depict what could be represented as normal, high or low
flows and a range of operations to respond to those conditions. Operations within the range
contemplated or prescribed by a water control plan reflect the operational flexibility of the water
control plan or manual and are not considered deviations.
Project. Any water resource impoundment project constructed or modified, including natural
lakes, these could include reservoirs, locks, dams and other water control projects
Project Owner. The entity responsible for maintenance, physical operation, and safety of the
project, and for carrying out the water control plan in the interest of flood control or navigation
as prescribed by USACE. Special arrangements may be made by the project owner for
"operating agencies" to perform these tasks.
Real Time. As used herein, real time denotes the processing of current information or data in a
sufficiently timely manner to influence a physical response in the system being monitored or
controlled. The term includes information on the analyses for and execution of water control
decisions for both minor and major flood events and for navigation and low water regulation

based on prevailing hydro-meteorological and other conditions and constraints, to achieve
efficient management of water resource systems.
Reregulation. In a multi-dam system, regulating the dramatic peak flows generated by upstream
dams through the measured release of water from the dam farthest downstream.
Reservoir. Any dam-and-reservoir project surveyed, planned, and constructed, or to be planned,
surveyed, constructed, and operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, that is intended to
contain storage to be jointly managed and operated for multiple purposes under federal law. The
terms “reservoir” and “project” may comprise a single dam-and-reservoir facility or a system of
improvements, depending on how the project is ultimately authorized by Congress, and may
include lock and dam projects, if such lock and dam projects contain storage that was authorized
by Congress and is managed for multiple purposes in accordance with congressional intent.”
Reservoir Regulation Schedule. A compilation of operating criteria, guidelines, guide curves,
and specifications that govern the storage and release functions of a reservoir. In general,
schedules indicate limiting rates of reservoir releases required during various seasons of the year
to meet all Congressionally authorized purposes of the particular project, acting separately or in
combination with other projects in a system. Schedules are usually expressed in the form of
graphs and tabulations, supplemented by concise specifications.
Surcharge. Any storage above the full pool.
Water Control Agreement. A compilation of water control criteria, guidelines, diagrams, release
schedules, guide curves, and specifications that basically govern the use of reservoir storage
space for flood control or navigation, and other authorized purposes. In general, they indicate
controlling or release functions of a water control project for these purposes. In general, they
indicate controlling or limiting rates of discharge and storage space required for flood control or
navigation, based on the runoff potential during various seasons of the year.
Water Control Manual. A document that provides guidance and instruction for project personnel
and a reference source for others who may be involved with, responsible for, or affected by
project regulation. It includes all water control management activities as they relate to hydraulic
and hydrologic aspects of the project, such as descriptions of physical components, operating
procedures, historical facts, and other pertinent data.
Water Control Plan. A document that includes coordinated regulation schedules for
project/system regulation and such additional provisions as may be required to collect, analyze,
and disseminate basic data, prepare detailed operating instructions, assure project safety, and
carry out regulation of projects in an appropriate manner. For the purpose of this regulation, the
term “water control plan” refers to the plan of regulation for a water resources project in the
interest of flood control, navigation, and other authorized purposes.
Water Control Regulation. The regulation of water control projects according to regulation
schedules in the water control plan and any other criteria in the water control manual. Either (1)
water control procedures and decisions that normally are determined by regulating engineers, or
(2) provisions governing water control resource management found in legal rules, agreements,
contracts, FERC licenses, interstate compacts, and the like.

Water Quality. The physical, chemical, biological, and radiological characteristics of surface and
ground water affecting abiotic and biotic interrelationships.
Water Quality Management. The management of water resources to improve, restore, conserve,
and protect the physical, chemical, biological, and radiological quality of the water for natural
and human use.
