Technical Workshop & NW Operators Forum Agenda

The NWHA Regional Dam Safety Working Group will be hosting this meeting, and the focus will be on special inspections. Dam safety colleagues from the PNW will share their latest experiences using improved, and new, technologies to gain more value out of their special inspections. This includes aerial photogrammetry of embankment dams, underwater photogrammetry of concrete structures and foundation drain inspections. Please join us to learn from others and to share your experiences for performing special inspections

This discussion will explore how condition monitoring practices can inform stronger asset management decisions and how their value can be demonstrated through reliability improvement, risk reduction, and return on investment. Participants will examine current practices and emerging technologies that connect field observations and sensor data to asset planning, budgeting, and maintenance decisions. The discussion will encourage shared learning through real examples and concludes with a discussion on future use cases and opportunities for follow up collaboration.

Who should attend: maintenance, reliability, and operations leaders; engineers and planners; and anyone responsible for Condition Monitoring, Data, or Asset Management Programs.
