After inspecting a dam, the Secretary tells the state's Governor what the inspection found. If a dam is hazardous, the Secretary can do detailed engineering studies at the owner's request and expense. The Secretary immediately warns the Governor of any hazard and gives advice on fixing it.
As soon as practicable after inspection of a dam*, the Secretary shall notify the Governor of the State* in which such dam is located the results of such investigation. In any case in which any hazardous conditions are found during an inspection, upon request by the owner, the Secretary, acting through the Chief of Engineers, may perform detailed engineering studies to determine the structural integrity of the dam, subject to reimbursement of such expense by the owner of such dam. The Secretary shall immediately notify the Governor of any hazardous conditions found during an inspection. The Secretary shall provide advice to the Governor, upon request, relating to timely remedial measures necessary to mitigate or obviate any hazardous conditions found during an inspection.
