The Dam Safety Toolbox is a comprehensive, wiki-style website designed to serve as a centralized learning and reference resource for all dam safety stakeholders. Curated by subject matter experts and continuously updated, it offers both the current state of practice and a living archive of historical approaches across a wide range of technical and regulatory topics. Whether you're a regulator, consultant, inspector, or policymaker, the Toolbox empowers users with accessible, in-depth knowledge to support informed decision-making and collaboration in dam safety.
Learning Objectives:
Have you visited the Dam Safety Toolbox before?
What is one dam safety-related challenge you've faced recently where you wish you had a wikipedia-style resource page to help you work through it?
How do you currently stay updated on changes in dam safety practices and what is missing from that process?
Have you ever had to take a deep dive on the web to track down an old reference manual? What was that like?
If you could add one feature or topic to the Dam Safety Toolbox, what would it be?
How did you "get up to speed" with the state of the dam safety practice when you first entered the field? What do you wish you would have had access to at that time?
