Institutional analysis is a tool utilized by the Corps of Engineers for a master planning study of resource management. The purpose of the present master plan is to provide a revised plan for management of existing recreational resources and facilities and for the development of proposed and existing recreation facilities. The study area encompasses all lands adjoining the Upper Mississippi River 9-foot channel system, including: the Mississippi River, from the Head of Navigation in Minneapolis, Minnesota to Lock and Dam 10 in Guttenburg, Iowa; the St. Croix River, from the Head of Navigation at Stillwater, Minnesota, to the confluence with the Mississippi River; and the Minnesota River, from the Head of Navigation at Savage, Minnesota, to the confluence with the Mississippi River. Descriptions of the institutions, legislation governing the institutions, perceptions operating within the institutions, and site-specific recommendations concerning the institutions will provide background data to aid in future decisions regarding management of existing recreational resources and facilities and development of proposed and existing recreation facilities.
