FY 09 PROGRAM PROCESS

Use Performance Measures and Policy Direction Guidance memo to:

· Rank competing investments in each business program · Demonstrate improved outcomes from added increments

Develop amounts based on their own internal performance metrics for:

· GE; REG; FCCE; REC; ENV Stewardship; FUSRAP

Develop Performance Based program for project competing business lines:

· Initial level (No new work, phases or contracts, previously budgeted projects only) · O&M at 75% of last 5 years budget; Investigations same as PY-1.

· Categorize and Prioritize CG projects into Priority levels · Add Performance Base High Return items and increments for GI and O&M items

Add to the Highest Priority, ongoing projects & contracts to “Final Budget”

And for the Out Years …

• Expect a major debate on Federal funding priorities to commence with the FY 11 budget and continue beyond • We will continue to place a high priority on execution of all that is appropriated • We will seek to improve our budget ‘defense’ of the value to the nation of the water resources infrastructure for which we are responsible
