  • 2017 – 2021 Scoping and Design Projects
    Section 3 – Scoping and Design Projects 2017 – 2021 Scoping and Design Projects The purpose of this section is to identify potential future highway and bridge projects. These projects may be in the evaluation stage, which is called project scoping, or may be further along in the preliminary design process. Projects listed in this section are not commitments to construct or implement an improvement. These commitments won’t be made until the NEPA process is completed. These projects are being included in the STIP for informational purposes and subsequent phases have not yet been determined or are beyond the STIP horizon period. After needs have been identified and prioritized, the higher priority needs are included in this section. Next, a core team is formed, comprising personnel from various MoDOT departments. The core team investigates the problem or concern. The core team develops several solutions that may be either short term or long term. Some problems have no transportation or construction solution and instead may require public education or assistance through law enforcement. Once a solution is selected, additional preliminary design work occurs. Design progresses up to a point at which MoDOT is confident the solution will properly address the problem or concern and of the improvement’s cost. The potential project moves into the next stage of the planning framework, which is the prioritization and selection of projects for construction. Projects that have been prioritized and selected for construction are listed in the construction program (see Section 4.) Only the construction projects in Section 4 represent a commitment by MoDOT to build the project.

CULVER OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR PATTY JUDGE GOVERNOR LT. GOVERNOR July 20, 2010 Lieutenant General Robert Van Antwerp Commanding General, USAGE Headquarters, US Army Corps of Engineers 441 G. Street, NW Washington, DC 20314-1000 Dear Lt. General Van Antwerp, The floods of 2008 and 2010 in Iowa provide vivid reminders of the complex factors impacting the ability of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE) to conduct day-to-day operations of the water storage capacities of each of our state's reservoirs. Much of the analyses underlying the Water Control Activities of the USAGE are premised on decades-old technologies and assumptions about Iowa's hydrology. Based on our recent cooperative efforts with USAGE, and in light of uncontrolled releases at Saylorville Reservoir, and new reports of technical problems as to the pneumatic crest gate at that dam, we believe that a review of these complex practices would be beneficial to all parties involved. We have USAGE-controlled dams in Iowa that have reached beyond their half­ lives without a comprehensive review of their operations. What may have been defined as "normal" 30 years ago might be quite unusual today. In light of the changing Midwestern weather patterns, I believe it is imperative to the safety and well-being of Iowans that plans put in place for the facilities and operations be carefully reviewed.

  • High Risk Levees Along the Upper Mississippi River As Identified by the United States Army Corps of Engineers
    High Risk Levees along the Upper Mississippi River As identified by the United States Army Corps of Engineers Levees take a hit during heavy floods. This spring, the Midwest was inundated with flooding that affected nearly 14 million people and set new record water levels in several places. While the ground was still frozen, heavy rainstorms followed heavy snow, and the resultant flooding damaged crops, homes, bridges, communities, and more. Levees are supposed to receive extensive monitoring and maintenance after floods because they serve a vital role in defending riverfront communities and lands from damage. In reviewing the United States Army Corps of Engineers’ (USACE) records, the Environmental Law & Policy Center (ELPC) identified the need for much more robust monitoring, reinforcement, and repairs. There are levees at risk of breach all along the Mississippi River in Illinois, Iowa, and Missouri, and several others have not received repairs after breaching during the 2019 floods. In Illinois, 41 of 54 levees in the St. Louis District have filed damage reports. In Missouri, 30 of 39 levees in the St. Louis District have filed damage reports. The Corps’ Rock Island District is currently working on only 22 levee rehabilitation projects. The flooding situation is likely to get worse in the future; scientists anticipate heavy rain events to increase in Midwestern states as global temperatures rise. Prudent decisionmakers should take climate resilience into account for long-term planning, prioritize which levees are repaired given limited federal and state funds, and shift towards green infrastructure. The list of levees below was drawn from the USACE National Levee Database, which reports the probability of levee failure.
