Over 85% of dams in US operating at or beyond life expectancy, study shows why they are a growing threat

Copy to Clipboard (Getty Images) Aging dams are an emerging risk, according to scientists. They project that most people globally will live downstream of large dams by 2050, which were built in the 20th century and many of them are already operating at or beyond their design life, say scientists. In the US, for example, over 85% of the dams (over 90,000 of all sizes) in 2020 were operating at or beyond their life expectancy. Dam failure risks the lives of people living downstream, and aging dams should be investigated to assess the threat, recommend investigators. Water storage infrastructure, particularly large dams in the last 100 years, has traditionally been used to regulate river flow worldwide. Large dams are defined by the International Commission on Large Dams (ICOLD) as having a height of 15 meters or greater from lowest foundation to crest, or a dam between 5 meters and 15 meters impounding more than 3 million cubic meters.
