- Corps’ Assessment of State & Interstate Water Plans & Needs: During the past year, Corps of Engineers has invested considerable effort in summarizing state & interstate water plans and convening a series of regional and national meetings to discuss federal agencies’ ability to provide additional support in the water planning process. The ICWP participation was lead by Ryan Mueller (Missouri DNR) with support from our two standing committees and the Board of Directors. The initial round of meetings have been completed, although the Corps hasn’t completed its assessment continues to support this effort, although we believe the assessment of planning needs and the development of recommendations should be a more collaborative process directly involving water officials outside the federal agencies. Let Ryan Mueller or Peter Evans know if you are interested or if you have any suggestions or questions.
