At CHL we work on exciting projects across our nation and around the world. While most of our work at CHL involves Corps of Engineers sponsored research, reimbursable work for Corps Districts, and research for the US Department of Defense, we are enthusiatic about working with others.
If you see an area of expertise where you wish to collaborate with us, please contact the point of contact on that page. If you do not work for the federal government you will need to be aware of the ways in which we can work together.
Please select your particular situation from the choices below to get a list of cooperative options. These descriptions of partnering possibilities are intentionally brief. Complete descriptions may be found by following the links below, or by visiting:
