Understanding Dam Safety Regulations
Dam safety is critical for protecting communities and ecosystems. This article provides an overview of the regulations that govern dam safety and maintenance.
Federal and State Regulations
In the United States, dam safety is regulated at both federal and state levels. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) oversees safety for hydroelectric dams, while state agencies manage other types of dams.
Inspection and Maintenance
Regular inspections are mandated by law to ensure that dams are maintained in safe condition. These inspections assess structural integrity and identify any necessary repairs.
"Effective regulation is essential for preventing dam failures and protecting lives."
