OFFICE OF SURFACE WATER TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM NO. 92.08

SUBJECT:  PROGRAMS & PLANS--Compilation of memorandums related 
                            to sediment

Responsibility for the sediment discipline was transferred from 
the Office of Water Quality to the Office of Surface Water in 
1985.  As a result, numerous memorandums related to sediment have 
been issued by two separate offices over the years.  In addition, 
numerous memorandums relevant to sediment have been issued at the 
Division level.  In an effort to consolidate memorandums issued by 
these three sources, the Office of Surface Water has compiled a 
listing of memorandums issued since 1971 that relate to sediment 
and sediment transport.  That list is attached.

Memorandums on the attached list have been subdivided by subject.  
Some are listed under more than one subject, and those that are 
either no longer relevant or have been superseded are listed in a 
separate category.

We encourage all personnel involved in sediment-related work to 
study the attached list.  Although we have tried to include all 
relevant memorandums, there may still be some that have not been 
included.  We would like to append any missing memorandums to the 
list.  Please contact Harvey Jobson at the Office of Surface Water 
if you find any that should be added.

All currently relevant memorandums on the attached list, except as 
indicated by an asterisk, have been added to the Office of Surface 
Water data base of technical memorandums on QVARSA, the National 
Center Prime computer (see Office of Surface Water Memorandum 
90.04 for a description of that data base).  Memorandums can be 
found under the subject "sediment data."  Future sediment-related 
memorandums, issued by either the Office of Surface Water or the 
Division, will be added to the data base.
