Section 2031 of the Water

(Water Resources Development Act),
Public Law 110–114, directed the
Secretary of the Army to revise the
‘‘Economic and Environmental
Principles and Guidelines for Water and
Related Land Resources Implementation
Studies’’ (Principles and Guidelines),
dated March 10, 1983, consistent with
several considerations enumerated in
the Water Resources Development Act.
The revised Principles and Guidelines,
now referenced as the Principles,
Requirements and Guidelines (PR&G),
consist of three key components: (1) The
Principles and Requirements (formerly
called Principles and Standards), setting
out broad policy and principles that
guide investments; (2) the Interagency

specific implementing procedures for
formulating, evaluating, and comparing
water resources projects, programs,
activities and related actions; and (3) the
Agency Specific Procedures, outlining
agency-specific procedures for
incorporating the Principles and
Requirements into agency missions and
programs.
This notice informs the public that
the Interagency Guidelines, the second
key component of the modernized
PR&G, are finalized and available at
www.whitehouse.gov/administration/
eop/ceq/initiatives/PandG. The draft
Interagency Guidelines were published
in the Federal Register with a request
for comments on March 27, 2013.
Subsequent to public review and
comment period, the final version of the
Interagency Guidelines was developed
through a collaborative interagency
process that promoted the open
exchange of information and
perspectives. The process has engaged
the public through formal public review
and workshops. The updated and
modernized PR&G will improve Federal
government decision making related to
investment in water resource projects
and, thus, improve how our country
plans for infrastructure projects.
DATES:
Effective June 15, 2015.
The Interagency Guidelines
are available at www.whitehouse.gov/
