Abstract/Additional Information

This document was developed with input, advice, and assistance from the Dams Sector Security Education Working Group (SEWG) and council members of the Dams Sector Government Coordinating Council (GCC) and Sector Coordinating Council (SCC), which included representatives from the public and private sector. The “Dams Sector Security Guidelines” consolidates effective industry security practices into a voluntary framework for owners and operators to select and implement security activities and measures that promote the protection of personnel, public health, public safety, and public confidence. The document is intended as a valuable resource to small- and medium-sized owners and operators, including security directors and facility managers with varying levels of security knowledge.
