"All phases of the construction should be documented, including reporting of routine and special activities. Changes in construction plans and departures from expected site conditions should be documented, with any consequent design changes. The record should include information on materials and construction processes, field exploration and test results, geologic mapping of foundations and excavations, inspection records, as-built drawings, and decisions to adapt the design to actual field conditions." [1]

"A formal plan for a construction inspection system should be developed, including inspection procedures and types and forms of reports. The system should identify and record the status of inspection of approved and rejected materials. Survey notes, sketches, and records of all materials tests made for the control of construction quality should be maintained for the life of the project. A job diary should be maintained for each construction contract to provide a complete history of the work, listing in chronological order the events having a bearing on performance of the work, and analysis of cause and effects of special events. Photographic documentation of significant events, findings, and safety problems should be provided. The inspection program and record should give special attention to factors that may have a future influence on dam safety." [1]

"Documentation must also be provided, as required, by applicable procurement, safety and health personnel, and financial regulations." [1]
