Strategic Directions for the Water Resources Division, 1998-2008
Abstract
The Water Resources Division of the U.S. Geological Survey is a strong and healthy organization. We do important and highly relevant work and have many strengths that will help us to meet the challenges and take advantage of the opportunities before us. We are part of the U.S. Geological Survey, a national science organization with the ability to address the most complex scientific and technical issues facing the Nation. We have ongoing collaborations with the larger scientific community to address the most important problems in the science of hydrology. We have a strong base of cooperators, including Federal, State, and local agencies who help us address issues of mutual interest. Without the support of all of these partners, we could not achieve our mission. This document presents three major premises that will guide the division over the next 10 years (1998-2008): (1) we will maintain and strengthen our scientific excellence and our partnerships; (2) we will make adjustments in skill mix, program emphasis, and approaches to staffing; and (3) we will maintain the flexibility to respond appropriately to unforeseen events.
