Bill information

Summary

To amend the National Dam Safety Program Act to require the inclusion of low-head dams in the national dam inventory, and for other purposes.

Plain-language summary

This bill would change the national dam safety program to include low-head dams in the official inventory of dams across the United States. Low-head dams are barriers built across rivers that are relatively short in height but can still pose safety risks. Currently, the national dam inventory focuses on larger dams, leaving many low-head dams untracked. The bill was introduced in Congress by Representatives Chuck Edwards, Pat Ryan, and Wiley Nickel and is awaiting review.
