New Survey: Critical Review of "Dam Safety Recommendations" and Technical Bulletins

The Dam Safety Committee (DSC) is currently reviewing the Canadian Dam Association's current (2013) version of the “Dam Safety Recommendations” and the various related technical bulletins, several of which date back to 2007. We are keen to find an effective way to communicate with CDA members to gather their views on the usefulness of the “Recommendations” in their professional lives and how they contribute to our collective efforts to protect the public from the adverse effects of dams. To this end, the DSC has developed a questionnaire to collect comments in a structured manner, which will facilitate the compilation of responses. This questionnaire should not be seen as a test of your professional knowledge and practices, but rather as an assessment of the adequacy of the “Recommendations” to provide the basic information and to propose a process to accomplish the various tasks associated with dam safety. To learn more and to complete the survey, we invite you to access https://cda.ca/publications/documents-for-member-comment.
