Dam Safety Inspection
Headquarters IMCOM, supported by the Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) will be conducting a three-day training course on Dam Safety for DPW personnel. The training will concentrate on the procedures used in the dam safety evaluation process, proper and improper repair techniques, developing projects, preventive maintenance techniques, and explain how the reported results can assist the installations in managing their dam portfolio. The training will begin with general discussions on the importance of dam inspections, U.S. Army Dam Statistics, U.S. Army Dam Safety Regulations, Hazard Potential Classification, Terminology, Functions, and Components of Army Dams. The training will continue with detailed discussions on Real Property Records & Management for U.S. Army Dams, Design Criteria for Dams, Spillways, and Outlet Works, Maintenance of Dams, local dam field trip, and Dam Safety Reporting and Records. The training will conclude with discussion of the importance of Emergency Action Plans, U.S. Army Personnel Responsibilities, and a Quiz and Course Evaluation. Lectures will also be presented on typical maintenance and repair practices identified at installations and how they relate to long-term performance of the dams service life. The training will provide information necessary for garrisons to develop and implement a comprehensive Dam Safety Program.
