  • Evaluating Need for Adaptation for US Army Corps Of
    Evaluating Need for Adaptation for U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Wilmington District Reservoirs by Mary Tchamkina Advisors: Dr. Martin Doyle, Dr. Lauren Patterson Client: Nicholas Institute for Environmental Policy Solutions, Duke University Secondary Client: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers April 29, 2016 Masters project submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Environmental Management degree in the Nicholas School of the Environment of Duke University 1 Executive Summary The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) is a federal agency that owns and operates a network of over 500 reservoirs nationwide. The majority of these projects are 50 years old. Moreover, they were designed with the assumption of a stationary climate and in response to specific community needs. As the agency looks to the future, it is crucial for it to understand which of these assets continue to meet design and operational goals. This report examines the Corps’ reservoir policy and historic operations to assess the reservoirs’ need for adaptation, focusing on the Wilmington District in Southeastern U.S. The Corps reservoir policy provides a context for examining operations. Reservoir regulation rules are contained in internal Corps documents called Water Control Plans (WCP). They are updated infrequently due to limited funding and because the Corps relies heavily on its reservoir operators to respond to environmental changes. This condition creates a culture of autonomous management responsive to local needs. It also reflects the Corps’ governance structure, where the agency’s actors have few limits on their operational discretion. Using Corps design and operational documents and daily operational data, this analysis quantifies historic reservoir management activities in the Wilmington District by evaluating four operational metrics over 2-3 management periods.

  • “Calamitous War” Mecklenburg County, Virginia, and the War Between the States
    “Calamitous War” Mecklenburg County, Virginia, and the War Between the States “God grant some better day may come.” Mecklenburg County, Virginia, emerged from the Civil War unscarred by battle within its boundaries. The only obvious physical evidence now that the war had even touched the county is a marker or two and the statue of a Civil War soldier before the courthouse. No earthworks. No cannonballs in the sides of buildings. The scars the war did leave are harder to see. The Scene Is Set When the war started, Mecklenburg and neighboring counties were generally known as being rich counties. In the July 4, 1861, issue of the Richmond, Virginia, Daily Dispatch, a correspondent noted that “Old Mecklenburg is by no means the least among the counties of Virginia in size, wealth and numbers. In refinement of its population, she is among the first rank, and … in patriotism perhaps the first of the State. Glorious Old Dominion!” The correspondent had mentioned a point to keep in mind: Virginia — the glorious Old Dominion. For many Southerners, loyalty to one’s state was paramount. Many U.S. Army and Navy officers resigned their commissions, followed their home states out of the Union, and accepted Confederate commissions. They included Mecklenburg County natives J. Thomas Goode (Lieut. Col., CSA) and William Conway Whittle (Commodore, CSA). Robert E. Lee resigned from the U.S. Army as well, “[p]erhaps … tugged by what his cousin Anna Maria Fitzhugh called ‘a sweet binding to this spot of earth, this soil of Virginia that is irresistible.’ ” In 1853, writer J.G.

Division of Water Resources (DWR) contracted with Hydrologics, Inc. to develop a river basin hydrologic model for the Roanoke River basin to be used for water resource planning. The modeling software that was utilized to develop the model was Operational Analysis and Simulation of Integrated Systems (OASIS), which contains the following features: a) A clickable map-base schematic with nodes representing reservoirs; b) Withdrawals, dischargers, stream gages, and inflow locations; c) Operation rules for reservoirs and water supply withdrawals; d) Position analysis mode for real time operations; e) Model runs that include both existing and future conditions scenarios; f) A customized interface including an irrigation withdrawal update table and automatic safe yield analysis; and g) Output options including USGS plots and 7Q10 statistics. During the model building process, DWR held two public meetings in two locations within the Roanoke River basin. The main objective of these meetings was to seek and solicit input from the local water systems and the public in an effort to enhance the modeling process. The involvement of the local water systems ensured that the model was based on the most accurate data regarding withdrawals and discharges in the basin. In addition, training was offered for anyone interested in learning how to use the finished model.

MISSION AND PURPOSE GENERAL MANAGEMENT PLANS: The 1987 State Parks Act (G.S.143B - 135.40) requires each park to have an individual General Management Plan. As required, these plans seek to identify an individual parks purpose as a unit within the larger parks system and provide an analysis of the parks major resources and facilities. The GMP also identifies current and future needs of the park and prioritizes a list of proposed projects intended to meet those identified needs. These plans are considered living documents, recognizing the various and dynamic factors which influence the planning process. Each park’s GMP is scheduled to be revisited every five years, or sooner if needed, to reflect the direction and vision of the State Parks Division. N.C. STATE PARKS MISSION: The 1987 State Parks Act also defines the purpose of the state parks system. It establishes that: The State of North Carolina offers unique archaeologic, geologic, biologic, scenic and recreational resources. These resources are part of the heritage of the people of this State. The heritage of a people should be preserved and managed by those people for their use and for the use of their visitors and descendants.

  • DRAFT Town of Keysville Comprehensive Plan, 2020 - 2025
    DRAFT Town of Keysville Comprehensive Plan, 2020 - 2025 Executive Summary As the Town of Keysville Comprehensive Plan was last updated in 1995, a comprehensive update of the Plan was undertaken. This involved the development of a new Plan for the Town – including new information and new maps. Notable components of this new Plan include the following: Developing a New Plan: The introduction to the Plan included information on the process for developing a new Plan. Page 3 Methods for Identifying Issues: This is the first time the Town utilized Online Surveys to assist in gathering citizen input. Citizens were supplied written surveys, as well as links to online surveys to gather input. In addition, a community meeting was held in the beginning of the process as an additional method to identify issues. Page 4 Education - Accreditation Status: The Virginia Board of Education has revised its accreditation standards to provide a more comprehensive view of school quality. The School Accreditation ratings included in the Plan reflect this new approach to accountability. Page 13 Commutation Patterns: Data for this Plan was provided by the U.S. Census American Community Survey and the Virginia Employment Commission. In the case of both sources, data was only available for Charlotte County (not the Town). Previously, commutation patterns focused on how far residents drove to work. New commutation data includes top destinations for out-commuters and top localities from which workers commute into the County. Page 20 Employment: Employment data was gathered based on early 2019 figures, and includes the following: growth occupations (South Central Workforce Investment Area, which includes Charlotte County), unemployment (Charlotte County), and employment by industry (Charlotte County).
