Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hydrologic Engineering Center, Corps of Engineers, is preparing a document entitled 'Manual for the Determination of the Feasibility of Adding Small Hydroelectric Power to an Existing Facility.' The manual is designed for use by public agencies (federal, state and local), public and private utilities, and private investors. It focuses upon the concepts, technology, and economic and financial issues unique to small hydropower additions. This paper discusses issues related to engineering and economic considerations in planning small hydropower additions, presents an overview of significant findings of the investigation to data, and provides a status report on manual preparation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water resources planning at the federal level is comprehensive multi-purpose multi-objective planning. The increasing complexity of issues, planning alternatives, and evaluation criteria have spawned an ever growing need for increased data and associated analysis procedures. The increased number of such models, both demanding and generating large amounts of data, have stimulated awareness of the need for planning oriented data management systems. This paper describes recent activities of the Corps of Engineers Hydrologic Engineering Center in data management for water resources planning studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goals of nonstructural flood-control planning are formulation, evaluation, selection, and implementation of a practicable management plan that provides optimal protection from the adverse effects of flooding. Many alternative flood-control measures can be dismissed by the water resources planner on the basis of judgement, but a substantial number will require detailed analysis before a suitable plan can be selected. This analysis is an iterative process, requiring input from the planar at each step. Software developed at the Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC) allows efficient data storage in a structure-oriented data bank and provides for selective retrieval and manipulation of the data from an interactive terminal. Thus the planner is able to propose nonstructural measures and to evaluate rapidly the economic and technical feasibility of those measures in a iterative scheme that allows the required input from the planner. An application of the interactive plan evaluation software is presented. Steps in creating the data bank are defined, and use of the software for subsequent accessing and manipulating the data for plan evaluation is discussed. (Author).

Book excerpt: Flood control and flood plain management investigations using spatial data management techniques are increasing in the Corps of Engineers. Pilot studies initiated in the mid-1970's were successful in consolidating analysis concepts, fostering the development of spatial data file creation and management technology and enhancing the consideration of existing and alternative future development patterns in Corps' planning studies. Over 30 studies using HEC-SAM, the Corps' spatial data management system, are now completed or underway. HEC-SAM was created through selective acquisition of commercial software, adaption of academic research products, and development by researchers at the Corps' Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC). The HEC role continues to be that of system developer and technology transfer agent. The evolution, present capabilities, and applications of HEC-SAM are described. Observations are offered on spatial technology development, implementation, and servicing. (Author).
