Federal Guidelines for Dam Safety: Emergency Action Planning for Dam Owners
There are many types of emergency events that affect dams. Whenever people live in areas that could be flooded from a dam failure, there is the potential for loss of life and damage to property. The purpose of these guidelines is to encourage thorough and consistent emergency action planning for dams to help save lives and reduce property damage. The guidelines cover basic considerations for preparing an Emergency Action Plan (EAP); the six basic elements of an EAP; and the suggested format for an EAP.
The CD-ROM, FEMA 93CD, 2005, contains all of the Federal Guidelines for Dam Safety: FEMA 64; FEMA 65; FEMA 93; FEMA 94; FEMA 148; and FEMA 333.
