If you see or hear of anything amiss at a dam or know of any actions that would jeopardize the safety of a dam, report it immediately to dam, law enforcement or the Homeland Security authorities. The life you save may be your own. Dams are resilient and useful structures that provide a lot of benefits for many different stakeholders, as long as we respect them and allow them to function properly.
