Identification of Challenges and Opportunities for Regional Sediment Management (RSM) and Engineering with Nature (EWN) within Inland USACE Districts

Abstract

The purpose of this Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) is to summarize the initial findings of a technical workshop entitled "Expanding Regional Sediment Management (RSM) and Engineering With Nature (EWN) to Integrate Inland Districts" held 29 April-1 May 2014 at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Omaha District (NWO), in Omaha, Nebraska. This effort was undertaken to (a) initiate collaborative partnerships, (b) identify both challenges and opportunities in incorporating RSM and EWN into inland river, reservoir, and watershed systems, and (c) provide direction for future efforts in ensuring that RSM and EWN strategies are successful.
