h. Identify all environmental concerns and complete all environmental reporting
requirements.
i. Identify the recommended plan. The recommended plan will identify the optimum
investment, both in terms of proposed actions and timing of proposed actions, given the risk and
uncertainty identified during the study. There may be circumstances where the risk and
uncertainty is such that more than one plan of action may be considered to reasonably maximize
net benefits. There may also be circumstances where priorities for Federal investments and
alternative financing may be an appropriate mechanism to obtain full NED level of development.
These should also be identified and fully described in the report.
j. For the recommended plan of action, develop a M-CACES cost estimate.
k. Prepare a proposed draft Project Cooperation Agreement (PCA) with a non-Federal
cost-sharing partner if required.
1. Prepare a Project Management Plan (PMP) for the recommended alternative. The
project manager, in coordination with Planning, Engineering, Operations and other functional
elements will develop a PMP in accordance with ER 5-7-1 (FR). The plan will identify the
timing of proposed investment, outlays and physical completion through the implementation
period.
B-3. Format and Content of Rehabilitation Evaluation Reports.
a. Project Authorization. Provide pertinent information on the project authorization,
including any modifications.
b. Location and Description. Describe the project location and provide a vicinity map,
plan and elevation of the structure as an enclosure. Provide a narrative description of the current
operation and use of the project, the associated project benefits and the recipient of project
benefits.
c. Identification of Problems and Opportunities. Describe the physical characteristics of
all significant project features. Special attention should be given to features which have
experienced unsatisfactory performance and which receive special emphasis in the report. In the
case of efficiency improvement, describe the opportunity for efficiency improvement (Reference
ER 1105-2-100, Section 5-4, Summary of the Planning Process\.
d. Project History.
(1) Current and Historical Conditions, Maintenance, Repairs and Modification.
(a) Describe the physical condition of the project and project features including an
assessment of the engineering condition and reliability of each. Table 3-1 provides an example
for summarizing this information. The current condition review should include a narrative
description of the condition and reliability of each feature. The purposes of the narrative and
Table 1 are to support special attention to the feature or features proposed for major rehabilitation
by this report. Of particular importance is the role of the feature in the performance of the
project and the feature's function in the operation of the project. Diagrams, drawings and
photographs in sufficient detail to portray the project and proposed rehabilitation features in their
