USACE Civil Works Benefits
• Navigation - Moving goods to market: 95% of all US imports / exports (
@ $1.4 Trillion / year ); 20% of US jobs; 1/3 of US GDP directly linked to
trade.
• Hydropower - Inexpensive and sustainable: Largest renewable energy
producer in U.S.; USACE provides 25% of U.S. hydropower capacity; 3%
of total U.S. electric capacity.
• Drinking Water: 6.5 billion gallons per day, 96 million people.
• Risk Reduction: Half of all Americans live within 50 miles of the coast;
dams, levees, and coastal storm damage reduction projects prevented est.
$361B in total damages from 2003 to 2012; weather related disasters
have tripled in the last 30 years.
• Quality of life: 370+ million visits annually at 404 lake and river projects
in 43 states; USACE is number one federal provider of outdoor
recreation – contributing $16B to local economies.
