Explore how the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Risk Management Center (RMC) support risk assessments in dam safety, levee safety, and other risk activities. Hazard is one of the three key inputs to every risk assessment; therefore, accuracy and thorough analyses are essential. This course provides the knowledge and methods needed for a successful flood hazard analysis that can support a credible risk assessment.

DLS-109: Site Characterization for Dam and Levee Risk Assessments

When:

August 08 - 10, 2023

Where:

Boston, MA

Explore how the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Risk Management Center (RMC) develops and maintains risk competencies related to semiquantitative or quantitative risk assessments (SQRA or QRA, respectively). This course is specifically designed to give journeyman scientists and engineers enough background to be able to scope and execute an appropriate level of site characterization to support a SQRA and QRA for dams and levees. Participants will gain necessary background related to site characterization, pertinent case histories, and other best practices.
