This document provides procedures and guidance for best practices concerning embankment dam filter design and construction, and represents an effort to collect and disseminate current information and experience having a technical consensus. Currently available information was reviewed, and when detailed documentation existed, it was cited to avoid duplicating available materials. The authors have strived not to reproduce information that was readily accessible in the public domain and attempted to condense and summarize the vast body of existing information, provide a clear and concise synopsis of this information, and present a recommended course of action.
