Beginning in January 2020 the Dam Safety Division has initiated a strategic reorganization with the goal of improved customer service, optimizing staff workloads and skillsets, and improving the safety of dams in Maryland by developing new or improved materials for dam owners, engineers and emergency response personnel. The reorganization creates the Dam Safety Inspection and Compliance Division and the Dam Safety Permits Division. These divisions will work hand-in-hand to advance the objectives of the Department and the Sediment, Stormwater, and Dam Safety Program, including those listed above.
