Dam safety consultants
Chapter 31, Wis. Stats. requires owners of large dams to ensure safety of their dams by hiring professional engineers licensed in Wisconsin to perform regular and frequent inspections.
The Hiring an Engineer Factsheet assists owners with the process of contacting, interviewing, reviewing references and experience, and hiring a consulting engineer to perform a dam safety inspection.
Dam Consultants and Contractors List
Many dam owners and operators want to know who to call for technical assistance. DNR Dam Safety maintains the above listing of companies that have completed dam inspections, plans and specifications for dam construction, repairs, or removals, and hydrologic and hydraulic analyses in Wisconsin. Dam owners are encouraged to ask for references when hiring an engineering consultant or contractor. To obtain references, please contact the company directly.
The purpose of this resource is to provide contact information for consulting firms that have experience working on dam projects. It is not intended to, nor should it be construed as, DNR advocating that dam owners should hire only an engineer or firm listed in the consultant database. It does not mean to imply that the list is complete; additional qualified consultants are available in Wisconsin. The DNR neither endorses nor vouches for any of these firms or their work habits, practices or results. Moreover, the DNR shall not be liable for any mishap, poor workmanship or design, hardship, difficulty, delay or other misfortune experienced by a dam owner or operator who uses the services of a company that is chosen from this list.
Consultants - If you observe any errors or omissions with your data, please contact the DNR Dam Safety Program.
