Corps Of Engineers Should Reevaluate

The Elk Creek Project's Benefits And Costs




The Corps of Engineers' fiscal year 1982 esti-
mr tes of benefits and costs for the Elk Creek
project, under construction in Jackson County,
Oregon, show an excess of benefits over costs.

This report questions most of the Corps' esti-
mates of benefits to be obtained from the
project's flood control, water supply, recrea-
tion, irrigation, and area redevelopment pur-
poses. It also questions some of the Corps'
project cost estimates. These issues affect the
benefit-cost value reported to the Congress in
support of the project's economic feasibility.

GAO recommends that the Corps resolve these
matters and recalculate project benefits and
cost.
