Dam and Levee Safety, Slope Stability, & Regulatory Compliance


Landslide Technology has very strong capabilities in safety assessments of dams, levees, and water/power transmission systems.  The firm has five senior staff who are recognized as Independent Consultants by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) for Part 12 Dam Safety Inspections.  Combined with our expertise in seismic engineering and landslide/rockfall stabilization, the firm has excellent technical capacity for identifying and addressing potential failure modes at hydro facilities and water resources projects.  Our services also feature a team of engineers and geologists certified in rope access techniques and expertise in remote 3D modeling, which allows us to inspect challenging areas such as spillways and abutments for deterioration and instability.

The firm also has strong capabilities in levee safety studies, with extensive background in emergency response to storm-related damages; routine and periodic inspections; FEMA accreditation; analysis and management of encroachments; and levee setbacks for wetland restoration.
