The 2015 USSD Conference theme is Managing Risk and Uncertainty'-'Ensuring a Sustainable Future for Dams, Levees and Reservoirs. With growth in population and development, many older dams and levees that were constructed to protect agricultural interests are now protecting people and personal property, and are being called upon to provide other benefits such as power generation, recreation and water supply. As a result, the risk associated with many of these structures has increased, bringing new costly challenges for owners to retrofit or modify existing dams and levees in response to the expanded role these structures now play.
