Projects
Each dam has operational similarities and common internal processes and equipment. The management, equipment, project layout, staffing and size, however, vary among the projects.
Each project is subject to Northwestern Division policy on oil and grease accountability to ensure that oil and grease at operating projects are properly accounted for to reduce the potential for releases of pollutants into waters of the United States.
Each project uses the Facility Equipment Maintenance (FEM) tracking system to document all equipment inspections and repairs. Inspections are performed on a routine schedule established by the individual dam. When Inspections reveal operation or maintenance issues not associated with normal operations, the project performs Assessments through which the project evaluates, repairs, or otherwise addresses such issues. The reports below contain summaries of Inspections and Assessments for each of the eight dams.
