Description

Dam safety regulatory requirements are established based on the consequence classification of the structures and/or risks or hazards posed by the structures. Dam safety uses five consequence classifications for dams or canals based on the potential downstream consequences of a failure. The classifications are similar to those suggested by the Canadian Dam Association. The factors at risk that influence the consequence classification include downstream populations, the environment, the economy, cultural values and downstream infrastructure.
