This dam safety inspection checklist supports private dam monitoring for MWC diversion dams. Capture site details and conditions, estimate water level relative to the crest, and evaluate crest alignment, settlement, ruts, cracks, and vegetation. Assess spillway blockages and erosion, downstream and upstream slopes for seepage, slides, sinkholes, animal damage, and wave erosion. Inspect the downstream toe, abutments, and waterway banks for new seepage or sediment deposits. Review outlet works for cracks, deformation, unusual flows, seepage, corrosion, and valve or gate issues, plus downstream erosion. Includes a recommended tools list, photos, sketches, notes, and follow-up actions to support compliance and clear reporting.
