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.

The regulations ensure that classifiable dams are well operated, maintained and regularly monitored. They also ensure that potential impacts of dam incidents and failures are reduced, protecting people, property, and the environment.
