1 US Army Corps of Engineers BUILDING STRONG ® Mouth of the Columbia River (MCR) Jetties Laura Hicks Chief, Planning and Project Management Branch Pacific Northwest Waterways Association June 27-29, 2011

2 BUILDING STRONG ® PORTLAND DISTRICT Purpose: Project Functions  Stabilize deep-draft navigation channel through a regionally significant ocean inlet  Provide protection from waves and currents for all navigation  Minimize dredging requirements of channel  Minimize structure repair frequency and magnitude

3 BUILDING STRONG ® PORTLAND DISTRICT Functioning Jetties at the MCR support the following:  $17 billion in international trade  45 million tons of cargo 1  3,500 cargo vessel crossings 1  1,600 crossings at greater than 30 feet 1  The lives of mariners and fishermen  More than 40,000 maritime-related jobs 1 Data from Waterborne Commerce of the United States, 2008

12 Major Maintenance Report  North Jetty Lagoon and Wetland Fill ► Detailed Design Report, Plans & Specifications, Award Contract ► Loss of 1.8 acres of wetlands and 4.70 acres of waters of the US. ► Locating and developing mitigation site. ► Redirecting stream away from lagoon wetlands. Replacing Jetty Road culvert

17 BUILDING STRONG ® PORTLAND DISTRICT Major Rehabilitation Report Status:  Draft IEPR report complete  SRB model disapproved  HQUSACE issuing memo regarding model disapproval  Based on a draft memo, district developed a path forward

18 BUILDING STRONG ® PORTLAND DISTRICT Major Rehabilitation Report Path Forward:  Break planning model into distinct pieces, separating hazard functions, quantities, cost estimates, progressive damage calculations, etc.  Hire a professional Matlab programmer to work collaboratively with coastal engineer to document and rewrite code.  Coordinate with Division and HQUSACE vertical team to sign off on plan to obtain MRR approvals. Timeline:  Complete updated MMR and engineering analysis by 30 Nov 2011
