|abstract= <!-- Add document summary-->
This fact sheet presents a framework for an engineer/modeler to communicate plans for hydrologic, hydraulic, seepage, and stability models to both a dam owner and regulatory agency. Computer models can be useful tools in evaluating the performance of dams and appurtenant structures, watersheds, and a dam’s downstream consequences. There are a variety of approaches and methodologies for these modeling efforts, and it is important to owners, consultants, and regulators that clear communication is integrated in the process. The purpose of this fact sheet is to guide communication among all interested parties prior to commencing a modeling effort.
