This study provides feedback on the Department of Water Resource’s “Oroville Dam Comprehensive Needs Assessment,” or DWR CNA for short.  The purpose of the CNA was to “to assess the facilities within the Oroville Dam Complex to identify further dam safety and operational needs.”  This study followed findings from an Independent Forensic Team (IFT) that found a number of ‘lessons to be learned’ following the 2017 Primary Spillway failure in order to achieve the intended degree of safety for not only Oroville Dam, but dams in general.  The feedback in this report is framed from the standpoint of the Oroville Community that was impacted by the consequences associated with the February 7, 2017 failure of the Oroville Dam Primary Spillway, rather than from a technical engineering perspective.
