This report provides information about the United States’ (USA), and particularly the Bureau of Reclamation’s (Reclamation) experience with dam removal; reasons for dam removal; concepts for dam removal planning, design, and monitoring; and examples from selected case studies. Dam removal planning and evaluation requires consideration of economics, engineering design, hydraulics, sediment transport, and environmental effects. These guidelines are primarily focused on the engineering considerations of design, hydraulics, sediment transport, and the physical environmental effects to the reservoir and stream channel.
