Strengthening Dam Safety

Major dams are a crucial part of water management, flood mitigation, and energy production worldwide. Failures lead to loss of life, property damage, and environmental destruction requiring evacuations impacting vast populations. Large scale dam failures, as occurred with the Edenville Dam in Michigan or Oroville Dam in California, required hundreds of thousands of people to evacuate and resulted in millions of dollars in property damage. Dam safety goes beyond sizing spillways and concrete reinforcement; Genasys helps protect lives from devastating breaches.

• Platform Protection: How the entire Genasys Protect platform and LRAD help communicate with the public to quickly alert people in the path of inundation.
• Evacuation Preparedness: The advantages of Genasys EVAC for accelerating evacuation notices to targeted areas downstream of the dam.
• LRAD and ACOUSTICS: Long range outdoor speakers clearly broadcast voice messages over loud noises to keep people informed during emergencies
• Integrated Sensors: Genasys solutions, including ACOUSTICS and ALERT, work with integrated sensors to proactively notify first responders of the threat of a breach
