In terms of the Department of Water and Sanitation ( DWS)  dam safety  regulations all dams registered  with DWS  need to have a Dam Safety Assessment and report done every five years . This is to ensure the safety of the dam as well as developments around and downstream of the dam. We can assist you in ensuring your dam is safe and is also compliant with the dam safety regulations.
