Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepared by the Civil Engineering Research Foundation. This report provides an analysis of the federal role in public works infrastructure research and development; it is one of a series of special studies commissioned by the U.S. Corps of Engineers under a Congressional directive. To perform this analysis, CERF contacted more than a dozen federal agencies and coordinated with the Federal Laboratory Consortium to obtain data from 257 federal laboratories. The objective of the analysis was to establish baseline information regarding the federal government's role in public works infrastructure (PWI) research and development (R&D). What, where, and how PWI R&D is accomplished by the federal government is the focus of this analysis. After providing background information and defining public works infrastructure, the report provides an overview of responses collected from a variety of government agencies concerning their perceived role in PWI R&D. As part of the effort to determine whether federal PWI R&D meets national public works infrastructure needs, a typical federal R&D program life-cycle is synopsized to include an explanation of the role of contributing organizations. Next, the report quantifies the federal role in public works infrastructure R&D. The components of this quantification include estimates of federal funding PWI R&D, where such R&D is accomplished, the types of R&D performed, and technical transfer mechanisms. Funding trends for the various infrastructure components are also addressed. Findings are documented in both tabular and graphic form. Finally, to place federal PWI R&D into a worldwide perspective, the report compares the United State's PWI R&D investment with other industrially advanced nations.

Book excerpt: America's infrastructure policy is at a crossroads, caught between rising demands and outdated programs to address them. Airports, highways, ports, and harbors are severely congested. Drinking water and wastewater facilities, bridges, dams and school buildings are in poor condition. The cost of these failures is great: time is lost to delay, commerce is impeded, business productivity is compromised, and lives are threatened. Yet federal investment in public infrastructure has decreased steadily as a share of both the economy and federal spending over the past two decades. The risk of under investment is only part of the equation. Of equal or greater concern is the prospect that the investments we make are not the right ones. Our nation's infrastructure policy favors new construction even when maintenance, renovation, and improved management offer better responses to the problem. Infrastructure policy favors politics over sound investment principles. And as our programs fail to change in response to new realities, additional spending will be progressively less able to solve our infrastructure problems. This report outlines the considerations involved in rethinking infrastructure policy--the types of infrastructure needed, the technology for providing it, and the sophistication of the various actors involved. It makes a case for folding public school buildings into the national infrastructure policy framework. Finally, the report presents a plan to restructure the federal role in infrastructure provision that would improve returns on public investment and strengthen America's economic foundations for the twenty-first century.

This book was released on 1994 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public works agencies must deal with what seem to be an ever increasing variety of demands and pressures. These derive from various sources: local constituents, state agencies, and the federal government. Numerous studies have been conducted to identify critical problems in public works and possible solutions. Among the most notable recent efforts is the work of the National Council on Public Works Improvement. This multi-year study examined basic areas of public works infrastructure and operations and recommended a series of actions to improve the condition of the nation's public works infrastructure -- the physical facilities that are necessary for providing clean water, sanitary waste disposal, and modern transportation. The American Public Works Association (APWA) has also undertaken programs to enhance the public works field. The development of a manual of Public Works Management Practices was a significant effort toward upgrading practices in the public works field. This manual was developed and tested by public works professionals in all of the many professions included within APWA's membership. APWA has also developed an educational program to guide agencies in using the manual to internally assess their operations. The Institute for Water Resources of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers facilitated a cooperative interagency effort on the development of an integrated Federal Infrastructure Strategy. This program sought to explore the merits of a more cohesive approach to improving the state of the nation's public works. The Corps of Engineers conducted a broad range of studies and investigations to accomplish this objective.
