ERDC's Center for Contaminated Sediments (CCS)
The ERDC’s CCS serves as a clearinghouse for technology and expertise concerned with contaminated sediments. The CCS sponsors development of new initiatives and technologies, organizes and sponsors workshops/symposia, and works on contaminated sediment projects within the Corps, Department of Defense, other federal and state agencies, academia, and the private sector.
ERDC's Dredging Operations and Environmental Research Program (DOER)
ERDC's DOER program supports the Corps Operation and Maintenance Navigation Program. Research results provide dredging project managers with knowledge and technology for cost-effective operation, evaluation or risks associated with management alternatives, and environmental compliance.
ERDC's Engineering With Nature Program (EWN)
EWN is the intentional alignment of natural and engineering processes to efficiently and sustainably deliver economic, environmental, and social benefits through collaborative processes. EWN is a cross-cutting program of activities resulting from collaborations among multiple civil works programs and non-USACE partners.
USACE Navigation Portal
To accomplish USACE responsibilities, USACE staff collect, store, visualize, analyze, and distribute huge amounts of navigation-related data. The Navigation Data Integration Framework (NDIF), which forms the basis of this Navigation Portal, is an effort to establish a detailed methodology to link data and tools across the Navigation Business line and make them easily available to our stakeholders.
