RE: Reference for Dam Failure Probability to Reservoir Level Jeff, thinking about it more, you could use a reference such as the following:

http://uwrl.usu.edu/people/faculty/DSB/Fell.PDF They do talk about first fill in passing and, if you assume the <5 years data for the failure rates, you may be able to list "first fill" type of results.From: Mitman, Jeffrey Sent: Sunday, January 09, 2011 8:06 PM To: Ferrante, Fernando

Reference for Dam Failure Probability to Reservoir Level Fernando, in our previous presentations we have called attention to the dam failure probability to reservoir level by referencing the quote from the early 20th century. For my non-concurrence, I would like to use a more current citation.

Do you know one?Thanks.Jeff 1
