The new Technical Bulletin: Application of Dam Safety Guidelines to Mining Dams, complements the Dam Safety Guidelines re-published by CDA in 2013 by providing additional explanation of how the concepts described in the guidelines apply to mining dams. The Bulletin identifies some specific issues that should be considered during the design and safety evaluation of both tailings dams and water retention dams used in the mining industry. Available in hard copy only.
CDA's Annual Conference is a national forum for dam owners and operators, engineers, geoscientists, regulators, and others. Share ideas and knowledge on management, maintenance and design of water dams and mining dams.
