Monitoring Completed Navigation Projects Program

Bottin, Jr | Robert R.
This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) describes the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Monitoring Completed Navigation Projects (MCNP) Program. The program was formerly known as the Monitoring Completed Coastal Projects Program, but was modified in the late 1990s to include all navigation projects, inland as well as coastal. The MCNP Program evaluates the performance of completed civil works navigation projects. Its objective is to obtain information for verifying, or improving, navigation project performance. Monitoring is conducted to (a) determine if the project is functioning as designed, (b) improve design procedures, (c) improve construction methods, and (d) improve operations and maintenance techniques. Shallow- and deep-draft navigation projects located in rivers, reservoirs, lakes, estuaries, and the coastal zone may be considered for monitoring in the MCNP Program. Monitoring may be conducted as either a comprehensive detailed survey to verify postconstruction conditions on a one-time basis, or a continuous (repetitive) collection of prototype data over an extended period. The MCNP Program can only fund monitoring for completed projects operated and/or maintained by the Corps. Projects must be related to navigation, or mitigation for navigation, to be monitored by the program.
