When U.S. engineering firms conduct TDA-funded studies, recommendations and specifications can be written to American codes and standards. Completed feasibility studies contain the detailed data used to determine whether to proceed with the implementation of a project and if so, how best to proceed. These project plans contain essential information for investors, developers, and providers of goods and services expanding their export market.
Studies are often hundreds of pages in length.
They typically include contact information, technical data, financial information, market studies, and procurement plans, including the advice that was offered to foreign country sponsors about U.S. equipment and services that meet project requirements. TDA is now offering direct access on-line to executive summaries of recently completed feasibility studies. The studies can also be reviewed at TDA's library. The following studies have been recently completed. The report contains information on the project background and description, the proposed site, plant technical features, transmission facilities, environmental requirements, project economics, and a schedule of the project.
