  • Abstract:
    Transportation agencies a re responsible for the operation and maintenance of hydraulic control structures including culverts, drop ; systems, and storm drains. It is difficult for transportation agencies to develop accurate and effective performance measures, budgets, ; and maintenance plans for culverts because there is a lack of information on the condition and even the location of many of the ; structures they manage. In this 2013 set of interviews and case studies, three States (Ohio, Oregon, and Vermont) and one county (Los ; Angeles) describe how the agencies are tackling these challenges and increasing the resilience of their culvert systems. Through the ; development of effective culvert management systems and policies, they are developing operational protocols and establishing capital ; improvement budgets that address risks associated with hydraulic control structure failures. Generally, the culvert management ; systems they have developed are available for other public agencies to use and adapt. The culvert management case studies herein ; illustrate a path for other departments of transportation and transportation agencies to manage assets more efficiently, reduce risk, ; and improve public safety.
