The State of Washington Department of Ecology will receive $2,724,917 through September 28, 2022 from the Federal Emergency Management Agency under the National Dam Safety Program (CFDA #97.041) to improve dam safety. The funding will support both the National Dam Safety Program state assistance grant and the Rehabilitation of High Hazard Potential Dams grant program, with the shared goal of enhancing dam safety and achieving the key objective of reducing dam safety risks. The grant programs aim to advance this objective by providing resources for Washington to inspect dams, ensure deficiencies are addressed, and support rehabilitation of high-hazard dams that pose the greatest threat if failure occurred.
