The Nature Conservancy and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Announce Partnership to Improve Management of U.S. Rivers

Abstract

The Nature Conservancy and the Army Corps of Engineers today announced a collaborative effort to improve the management of dams on various rivers across the country. Under the new partnership, entitled the Sustainable Rivers Project, the two organizations will work together to improve dam operations, helping to restore and protect the health of rivers and surrounding natural areas while continuing to meet human needs for services such as flood control and power generation. The partnership is one that both organizations expect will improve the quality of America's waterways.
