I am glad to see the above being presented. I have been interested in Lake Abert and its 'partners' whose fate appears to be desiccation - a natural outcome due to the drying of the climate in the Interior West.  

 

Here are links to some of my blog posts on the topic. Each contains more links.

CRS Report: Overview of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Environmental Infrastructure (EI) Assistance

Anna E. Normand wrote this CRS Report (23 January 2023): 'Overview of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Environmental Infrastructure (EI) Assistance'.

Summary
Congress has authorized and appropriated funding for U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) environmental infrastructure (EI) assistance for the design and construction of certain infrastructure in specified municipalities, counties, and states. This assistance supports different projects at publicly owned and operated facilities. Projects include construction of water distribution works, stormwater management, surface water protection, and environmental restoration, among others. EI assistance authorities generally fall into one of three categories:

•   Section 219 EI. Projects and activities (e.g., design assistance) at specific geographic locations (e.g., city, county, multiple counties) authorized through Section 219 of the Water Resources Development Act of 1992 (WRDA 1992; P.L. 102-580), as amended.

•   Non-Section 219 EI Projects. Projects authorized in provisions other than Section 219 of WRDA 1992.

•   EI Programs. EI programs authorized for broader geographic areas (e.g., states or regions of states), with eligible types of assistance authorized in various provisions of the authority.

  The Congressional Research Service (CRS) reviewed enacted legislation likely to include EI assistance authorities and deauthorization lists to identify 422 EI assistance authorities with cumulative authorizations of appropriations totaling around $12.88 billion. The authorizations of appropriations for these activities vary widely, from $100,000 for a water monitoring station to $1 billion for a seven-state EI program. CRS identified authorized EI assistance in at least 46 states, the District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and the Northern Mariana Islands. CRS did not identify authorities for EI assistance in Iowa, Maine, Nebraska, Rhode Island, or the remaining territories.

  USACE evaluates an activity’s eligibility for assistance by identifying whether an EI assistance authorization exists for the project’s geographic area, and whether the proposed work is an eligible type of assistance provided for in the authorization. The authorization’s specifics determine the nature of USACE’s involvement and the nonfederal cost share. USACE is authorized to perform design and/or construction work with USACE funds and, for certain programmatic authorities, may use appropriated funds to reimburse nonfederal sponsors for work they perform. Most USACE EI assistance requires cost sharing at 75% federal and 25% nonfederal, and the nonfederal sponsor—the owner of constructed facilities—is responsible for operations and maintenance. Unlike traditional USACE water resource projects, EI assistance is not subject to the USACE planning process (e.g., it does not require a feasibility study); however, other federal laws apply to EI assistance, including the National Environmental Policy Act.

  Congress typically funds EI assistance through USACE’s Construction account in annual Energy and Water Development and Related Agencies appropriations acts. In FY2023, Congress provided $168.5 million for USACE EI assistance authorities. The explanatory statement accompanying Division D of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 (P.L. 117- 328) included recommendations to fund $130.5 million for EI assistance specifically requested by Members as Community Project Funding or Congressionally Directed Spending proposals (32 requests were funded). In addition, Division N of P.L. 117-328 provided $18.0 million in emergency appropriations for USACE to allocate to EI assistance authorities in an agency work plan and Division A of the Continuing Appropriations and Ukraine Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2023 (P.L. 117- 180) provided $20.0 million for EI assistance, which USACE allocated to assistance for Jackson, MS, water and wastewater infrastructure.

  Congress may consider whether to amend, add, or deauthorize EI assistance authorities and, if so, how to address those provisions. In the 117th Congress, WRDA 2022 (Division H, Title LXXXI of P.L. 117-263) amended EI assistance authorities and enacted new EI assistance authorities, which provided a combined increase in authorization of appropriations of $6.62 billion. Congress also may consider its support for USACE’s EI assistance activities generally, in view of other federal programs that provide assistance for similar projects and activities. In addition, Congress may consider how to allocate funding among EI assistance authorities, whether based on Member requests, certain criteria, or other considerations. Congress may also consider conducting oversight of USACE’s EI assistance activities and its impacts.

  
  Enjoy.

Should It Go or Should It Stay? Lake Abert's Fate - Free Online Symposium - 23 January 2023, 1-4 PM

Here's the info:

You are invited via Zoom to a Colloquium on the exceptional hypersaline ecosystem at Oregon’s Lake Abert 1-4 pm, Monday, January 23^rd… sponsored by Oregon State University and Oregon Lakes Association. No cost, just pre-register:

Download 2023 Lake Abert Colloquium program

Lake Abert was dry during the summers of 2021 and 2022, thereby denying vital habitat to hundreds of thousands of shorebirds that feast on the bounty of the lake’s exceptional hypersaline habitat. This is an ecological calamity with potential dire consequences for the survival of some bird populations.

Discussions that involve conservation groups and Chewaucan Valley residents and farmers are proceeding, with the goal of finding a way to share water between human uses and the lake’s needs. Acknowledging the fact that all saline lakes in the western US are at risk of going dry, President Biden recently signed the Saline Lakes Act charging the USGS with conducting research and monitoring to understand and conserve our saline lakes such as Lake Abert. 

With these activities ongoing, this Colloquium aims to present current knowledge on the lake and its ecology. We will hear about its amazing capacity to produce shrimp and fly invertebrates that birds feast on, and about the birds that visit Lake Abert. We will also hear about how climate is changing and how we think those changes will affect the landscape in the Chewaucan Valley surrounding Lake Abert. We present the science of Lake Abert as information to be used for decisions that we hope will help preserve the lake ecosystem.

Lisa Beutler Opines: 'Connecting the Dots - Humans and The Water Cycle' & My Ten Cents

Note: this post has been updated on 31 December 2022. Scroll to the bottom. 

The November-December 2022 issue of Water Resources IMPACT features an excellent article by AWRA Past President and Stantec water maven Lisa Beutler that deals with a new approach to integrating humans and their activities/infrastructure into the water/hydrologic cycle. You know - getting away from the depictions below (see G. Hornberger et al. Elements of Physical Hydrology, 2/e, Chapter 1). 

Pretty sparse re: humans and their influence.

Something like this is more relevant (see here):

Here is Lisa's article:

Download Water Resources IMPACT November:December2022

The first two paragraphs:

Educators around the Nation now have access to a new tool to explain the Earth’s water cycle. Developed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in consultation with more than 100 educators and more than 30 hydrologic experts, a new water cycle diagram replaces the one in use since 2000. Released in October 2022, the revised depiction brings humans into the picture and shows the water cycle as a complex interplay of small, interconnected cycles that people interact with and influence. Importantly it also shows how multiple ecosystems—including a coastal plain, dry basin, wet basin, and agricultural basin—are connected across watersheds and at continental scales

The earlier water cycle diagram, developed by Howard Pearlman and John Evans, introduced more than two decades of students, as well as readers of thousands of water publications, to the natural aspects of the water cycle. The 2022 version depicts how the Earth's water moves and is stored, both naturally and because of human actions. As Tanya Trujillo, assistant secretary for water and science at the U.S. Department of the Interior, says, "So much about the water cycle is influenced by our actions, and it's important that we clearly see the role that each of us can play in sustainable water use amid a changing climate.”

Here are the new USGS water cycle diagrams, in English and Spanish. Example:

And here is my all-time favorite water cycle diagram - The Post-Modern Hydrologic (or hydrosocial) Cycle - drawn by friend and colleague Kate Ely, a member of the AWRA BoD and a hydrogeologist for the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation, which I posted on 20 December 2008:

Note added on 31 December 2022.

I forgot to mention a 'live' (pre-2020) presentation given by Dr. Jay Zarnetske of Michigan State University, a PhD graduate of Oregon State University. Jay spoke of a project in which he participated. It was international in scope and dealt with with how academics represented the water cycle in their countries. There were > 400 depictions. Here is a PDF of the paper, Human domination of the global water cycle absent from depictions and perceptions, Nature Geoscience volume 12, pages 533–540 (2019). Lots of good information.
