January 24, 2014

These series of studies investigate risks and introduce the resilient practices in the flood and flash flood management of one of major river basins of Georgia- Rioni. “Study of Dam Safety Practices" investigates six hydroelectric dams in the Rioni Basin for their safety and flood control capacity. The report includes information about the Georgian legal base, evaluation of adverse maintenance practices, identification of measures for mitigation of flood damage and other. The second report reviews the best international practices in dam safety and safety inspections. With this aim, 16 countries and 3 international organizations were selected which are recognized to set best examples in the field.
