Dam safety requirements

Owners of classifiable dams (dams over a certain size) must meet requirements to ensure their dam is safe. The requirements are set out in the Building (Dam Safety) Regulations 2022.

A dam is classifiable if it has a height of 4 or more metres and stores 20,000 or more cubic metres volume of water or other fluid.
