The National Dam Safety Program Research Needs Workshop: Risk Assessment for Dams
This workshop report presents the detailed discussions of federal, state, and
private sector experts on the three areas of risk assessment applications for
dam safety: failure modes identification (qualitative approaches); portfolio
risk assessment and index prioritization approaches (prioritization and
portfolio approaches); and detailed quantitative approaches. The workshop
participants recognized that stakeholders will have different information needs
for their dam safety decisions. As a result, information that may play an
essential role in a dam owner’s decision-making process may not be needed
by a regulator who oversees the dam owner’s decision outcomes. Because the
information needs of organizations vary widely, the workshop report
acknowledges that it is not feasible for a single risk assessment approach to
meet the needs of all organizations.
