About this program
The Department of the Army administers Protection of Essential Highways, Highway Bridge Approaches, and Public Works (CFDA 12.105), a program that funds bank protection and erosion control projects for highways, highway bridge approaches, and essential public works infrastructure threatened by flood-caused erosion, including churches, hospitals, schools, and other nonprofit facilities.
The program operates through the Army Corps of Engineers, with the Division Engineer approving individual projects based on District Engineer investigation and processing. Award and construction are subject to fund availability from the Chief of Engineers. Prospective sponsors must submit a formal letter to the District Engineer indicating intent to provide all required local participation and must furnish evidence of legal authorization, financial ability, and willingness to assume necessary cost-share obligations.
Eligible applicants are states, political subdivisions of states, and other responsible local agencies established under state law with full authority and ability to undertake necessary legal and financial responsibilities. The Corps of Engineers designs and constructs selected projects; each project must be engineering feasible, complete within itself, and economically justified. The federal funding limit per project is $1,000,000. Nonfederal sponsors are responsible for all project costs exceeding the federal limit and must share in total project costs through cash contributions and provision of lands, easements, and rights-of-way. Nonfederal sponsors must also handle utility relocations, indemnify the federal government from damages, and maintain the project at local cost after completion. Detailed requirements are set forth in Engineer Regulation 1105-2-10, Chapter 9 (33 CFR 263), and information sheets are available from the nearest District Engineer.
