Welcome to the Norfolk District blog!
It’s been said that emerging media provides the forums that make up the 21st Century town square, where people exchange ideas and information and debate the hot topics of the day.
I’ve asked for this forum to serve exactly that purpose. Through this site, Norfolk District leaders will join me in sharing our ideas and questions, both great and small, with you: employees, supervisors, retirees, family members, friends, customers, partners and stakeholders.
It’s my goal to create the kind of open, honest dialog that makes the Norfolk District a better place to work and helps us deliver creative, sustainable solutions to our customers, partners and stakeholders.
This is your direct line to me, and I look forward to your comments and feedback.
Colonel Andrew W. Backus, P.E.
District Commander
Norfolk District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
