USACE 2015 Project Manager of Year Led Post-Sandy Risk Study

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) has presented Dave Robbins with the 2015 Project Manager of the Year award at their annual National Awards Ceremony.

Robbins works within the Planning Division at the Corps’s Baltimore District. He is a geographer by trade and was the project manager for the North Atlantic Coast Comprehensive Study (NACCS). This 2-year $20 million interagency effort studied Hurricane Sandy’s devastating aftermath. Robbins led a project team of more than 200 professionals, comprised of a virtual team of more than 50 partners from federal, state, local, and non-governmental agencies. This team developed shared tools and potential strategies that decision makers can use to assess coastal flood risks and identify solutions to reduce those risks across the entire region.
