DSMMCX Mission

A National Center that provides oversight and technical support for the Agency’s Dam Safety Modification Mission

- Oversees and coordinates the seven Regional Dam Safety Production Centers (DSPCs) established to execute that Mission

- The Great Lakes and Ohio River Division’s Regional DSPC is co-located with the DSMMCX in Huntington District

BUILDING STRONG®

Dam Safety Production Centers • Huntington, WV (w/MCX) • Concord, MA • Sacramento, CA • Omaha, NE • Vicksburg, MS • Atlanta, GA • Tulsa, OK

Why Develop Centers to Execute the DS Mission?

$26B of DS modifications needed to reduce risk on USACE DSAC I, II and III dams to tolerable limits (about $500M/year over a 53 year period)

Dam Safety Investment Plan (DSIP) Projects unevenly distributed across the nation Some Divisions have no work for ten years – can’t sustain

competencies

Centers provide for consistency, efficiency, effectiveness, quality, and sustained technical competence

4 BUILDING STRONG®

DSPC Roles Primary organization responsible for the preparation of engineering products and activities associated with Dam Safety Modifications:

• Dam Safety Modification Report (decision document) • Design documentation • Plans and Specifications • Engineering support during construction • Construction Liaison

DSMMCX Roles Responsible for oversight of the above activities in addition to:

• Ensure consistency and lessons learned across DSPCs • Facilitate coordination of resources across DSPCs • Provide oversight to DSPCs & perform Agency Technical Review • Develop and conduct Dam Safety related training • Administer national level A-E contracts for Dam Safety Modifications

BUILDING STRONG®

Corporate Goals for DSMMCX & DSPCs

• Efficiently provide risk reduction across USACE dam inventory

• Improve technical quality of products and services

• Ensure consistent implementation of engineering methodologies and policies

• Enhance, sustain and maintain technical competency capability within USACE
