The authorized “Other” budget for the CWMS program in FY26 is $2,445,000. Like ERC funds, this budget is divided into two categories: Sustainment and Development. For FY26, all “Other” funding is allocated to the Development category.
Although CWMS is authorized to spend up to the full budgeted amount, the actual funding received from external sources may be less. Despite this uncertainty, contributions from these sources continue to play a critical role in the development and implementation of CWMS and related software.
Contributors identified for FY26 are the CWMS National Implementation Program and the HQUSACE General Investigations Program.
CWMS National Implementation Program
The CWMS NIP is providing $750,000 for software development in FY26. That funding will be divided between different CWMS components as shown in the table below.
HEC will also receive $77,500 from the CWMS NIP to support the HEC-FIA Flood Damages Reduced effort.
