Event Summary:
Learn about the Permitting Process for Private Dams.
Event Description:
With all of the dams popping up in the Llano River watershed, we’ve been getting lots of questions around permitting, and who’s in charge of doing what. Dam permitting is super complicated because private dams can require up to 4 different permits from 4 different departments/agencies. Yikes. In the last couple of years, we’ve seen an uptick in new private dams in the Hill Country. These new dams have raised questions from downstream landowners about the process for permitting new dams, and what to do if they discover an unauthorized dam. In this webinar, we’ll cover the complex world of dam permitting with the agencies that regulate dams.
