Prepared for USACE North Atlantic Division 302 General Lee Avenue Brooklyn, NY 11252 ERDC/CHL SR-15-2 ii Abstract This report documents development of a conceptual regional sediment budget (CRSB) for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), North Atlantic Division (NAD). The NAD requested preparation of a CRSB as part of the post-Hurricane Sandy assessment to provide information about sediment sources and opportunities for strategic placement of sediment within the Division. Development of a detailed working sediment budget is fundamental to better sediment management. A conceptual sediment budget is the first phase in development of the working budget and is intended to provide a general framework based on existing transport inform
