Description RCW 90.54.160 directs the Washington Department of Ecology to report to the Legislature, as deemed appropriate by the department, on dam facilities that exhibit safety deficiencies sufficient to pose a significant threat to the safety of life and property. The report shall identify the owner or owners of such facilities, detail the owner's ability and attitude towards correcting such deficiencies, and provide an estimate of the cost of correcting the deficiencies if a study has been completed. This report updates information regarding the condition of 388 dams located above populated areas in Washington, which the Department of Ecology’s Dam Safety Office regulates. The report also provides an update on the progress to repair or improve dams found to be deficient during previous periodic safety inspections.
