What does the DSAC II rating mean?
Gathright Dam’s DSAC II resulted from an evaluation that considers risk and engineering factors. Simply put, the risk – evaluated as probability of failure and potential failure consequences – combined with the unconfirmed (potentially unsafe) issues identified by the SPRA team led to the DSAC II rating. This rating requires interim risk reduction measures, investigation and remediation, if necessary, and prioritizes funding for those efforts.
